Wolf: This is slightly off topic, but hey, it's not like we're all working tons of PSK right now -) Pskreporter is really good for telling how far your transmissions are getting, but it is not good at

Thanks, Steve! That's precisely what was worrying me -- I've lately replaced my venerable wire with a Hustler 6btv for transmitting, and I could tell by the spotting networks I was warming fewer

Hey Guys ! Maybe we should have sat this one out. Tried working W3HF today and I barely made it after several call. It's propagation !!! The propagation gods are not happy ... think

Hey Brian I've seen you call CQ 30 times here in the northeast this weekend. Of those 30, only 10 were error free where I copied your entire CQ correctly "CQ 070 TDW de WA6I WA6I bonus station CQ

Here in Illinois on 20/40m have been usable ... 80m was for a bit Friday night (Saturday morning UTC ). Nothing on 15/10m , although KZ3T & I tried 10m with zero results. Just a stinky weekend

Wolf — When we worked your signal was very light although I copied 100%, however, I believe you were the only CA station I heard at the time. I would have thought CA would be booming in to the East

Bad condx on east coast. No EU or SA stations Sunday afternoon. Usually waterfall is busy. Only 2 or 3 traces on waterfall. Traces not clean, look fuzzy. I think everyone turned off their rigs

Wolf - Conditions are pretty stinky this year, so that could be a big factor. And there seem to be fewer members on the air this year, but that could also be propagation conditions preventing many

Hi Wolf ! Nope, you're not deaf. We're at bottom on sunspot cycle and propagation is really crummy. I've seen your signal many times during contest, but I've already worked you on those bands.

Hi all - While the contest is fresh on everyone's mind, I have a question: WA6I been calling pretty much during all my waking hours, and I'm getting remarkably few takers. I've got 79 QSOs, but

I was thinking the same thing. It's a new and different crowd. It's like pulling teeth to get stations to stay on long enough to get their info. Hope the bands cooperate tomorrow. I'm done for the

No 80 for me tonight . Some sort of broad band QRM here wiping out the whole band. Transformers or a marijuana grow ! Haha. Steve 2301 Sent from my iPhone

Usually close to there. +/- QRM which is often W1AW's code practice. I think I'm often below 3580. In fact, my TS2000 right now says that I would be switching to 3579.15 USB. Steve W3HF On

Hi guys, Where do we play on 80m? 3.580? nu4c

Ray: Understand that. My grandkids are scattered from Minnesota to Kansas to California. One from MN is here this weekend and I have one living with me. Everyone has their priorities and that's

That is what is known as an "opportunity cost". By definition, resources (usually time and money) are always limited. When we determine how we spend our time an money, not only do we give up the

You need to plant a recording at night by XYL while she's sleeping , " contests are good ... you like contests ... Jim needs contests to be happy ... etc, " ha-ha ! Jerry n9avy

K5SP wants to get on, but family is getting in the way. Have great granddaughter here this weekend and xyl doesn't want to hear that there is a contest.... Jim, K5SP On
