Hey Ted, Lucky for you the club is doing this sprint again next month! We'll be lookin fer ya in upcoming contests. They are always fun regardless where you place and the only enemy is the

Jerry, I don't agree. I do not think all operators are interested in conversations. I'm one of them. I love FT8 because they are short. I think RTTY is typically short as well and I don't see that one

I don't think FT8 is a good contest mode. A good CW op can do 4 QSOs per minute during a contest; FT8 is about 90 seconds per QSO. Even RTTY is faster than FT8. Yes, the other JT modes are very slow,

Okay ... so what speed is FT-8... most CW ops are send at 30-40 wpm. Is FT-8 that fast ??? Also, what is band- width of FT-8 signal as compared to a CW signal ??? Just curious ... Jerry

Here is my prediction. Given the level of automation in the current FT-8 version, its superior performance on very weak signals, and the minimalist exchange, I think FT-8 or its future evolution's

Yessir, there's a problem with it, Barry. David is aware of it and is hoping to get it squared away in the next day or two. He'll re-run all the existing logs at that time, so keep and eye on it to

Is there something wrong with the scorer. http://hamclubs.info/scorer/?contest_id=070-TRIPLE-PLAY&year=2017&info=1 No points have been assigned. Barry VB7150

Anyone else read the specifications on this?  FT8 is going to be absolutely dominating every band when this mess starts.  It will be a year long FT8
