As the scorer of the RC3 championship, I have a request to make to a small subset of our members. First of all, if you are unfamiliar with the Rollo Cup Contest Championship (RC3), it's the year-long

Of course, if you only receive digests, you might not get this reply until tomorrow. So I'm including a copy to you direct. Steve W3HF

John - KC3FL posted that he'd likely do the same thing today. You might want to check the posts at the groups.io web page for updates prior to the digest. Steve W3HF

I saw nothing on 12 but noise. Less noise on 10m, but just as many (or few) signals. Steve W3HF

Tnx QSO Alan. Been a while since I worked AK from the east coast. Now that I'm on 12, my noise level is sky high! Steve W3HF

Alan - Just saw you on 15. Steve W3HF

Did you guys all move up to 15? I'm seeing nothing but a CW signal at 21070.5 or so. Steve W3HF

Agreed. But remember that most of my antennas are indoor (due to HOA rules), so I don't bother. (I figure if lightning hits the house, I have bigger problems than a zapped radio.) This was the one exc

Bummer. Back about 15 years ago I fried the finals on my FT-817. Fortunately I had another rig, but hadn't gotten around to setting up the interface for PSK. The dead finals gave me the incentive. My

Bob - Back in beginning, there was a distinction between PODXS and the 070 club. PODXS had its own logo, which pre-dated 070. You can see that logo in the top center of this page: https://web.archive.

I think we actually did one that ended up with millions of points, and I remember the comment about Mark (SK). I know there were lots of others that were rejected. The 070 club never lacked for imagin

We did have new member contests at various 100-member boundaries, but "The Great Race" was the last (at least for a long while). IIRC, the rules were set up that the contest would continue until someo

I don't know about Rollo. I think he was a creation of Jay N3DQU. Steve W3HF

That's a very abbreviated version--there's a lot more detail available. (And I apologize for replying to individual emails instead of reading them all first.) Steve

Bob - In our "General Contest Rules" page (http://www.podxs070.com/o7o-club-sponsored-contests/general-contest-rules), we state: 16. Unlike most “big” contests, self-spotting is allowed on 070 reflect

Jim - Since it's my spreadsheet you are working with, tell me what you want and I can try and create. Steve

Jim - Do a "Save As" and select HTML. Specifically, File -> Save As -> [select the folder where the file is to go] -> [use the pulldown for "Save as Type" to select "Web Page (*.htm, *.html)"] Those a
