Doug, not being a two meter fan anymore, it has been a real surprise to hear Torfino Radio booming in like they were yesterday... They were not even near the...
... Danny, your heart is in the right place, and I wish we could all roll back the clock 30-40 years, and not only for CW. The reality is that we are...
Well Paul. I helped put several hundred kids into the rank of Novice in the past 40 years (except the last decade - when someone thought it was good to get...
... As long as there are enough of us around who use it, it's not dead yet. I participated in the Microwave Activity Day today. I made QSO's on 1296, 2304,...
OK which one of you right coasters told all the YU6's to get off of 20 meters before their signals reached the left coast and all of those Lefty DX hogs...
It depends on what a person is trying to achieve. If all you want to do is send a message from point A to point B, it would be stupid in some cases to use ham...
... I worked the Canada Day contest this weekend. Hard to tell the age of the operator. The average age of Hams in Canada is 63. I would think this is...

The only contest I ever worked or heard that had a lot of kids, back in the day, were the Novice Roundups. That was a 2 week contest, and you could work a max...
That will come to me since I am the owner, but Danny...if you want to be the Owner, I can arrange that. Andy. ... From: Alan Zack To: dxlist@yahoogroups.com ;...
NONONO Go ahead, your doing fine. Setting here fat dumb and happy. I was just confused because I knew I had started "something" but when finally went back to...
I agree with you Paul... and I'd like to go one step further. We've got to stop making remarks that cast no-code hams in a bad light, too. Those of us that...
Well Jerry that is absolutely wonderful.. How do you explain to a new ham that the 50+ wpm's we all heard last night is Ham Radio at it's best... Been a ham...
and the pursuit of more DX is one "carrot" to waive for the rookie CW'er. I am on CW more than SSB these days, the only reason...I have many DXCC entities...
Great post, Jerry. Truer words than these were never spoken. Everyone must realize that the past is the past and mandatory CW proficiency, as well as...
Paul... in saying "you" can't do this and that, I didn't mean to imply you personally... I really meant "we" cant.... 73, Jerry K3BZ ... From: "Jerry Keller"...
Unrelated! No new ham expects to be able to break a new country pileup whether it is at 50 wpm or 5 wpm. Start the new ham on slow speed CW rag chewing....

I'm willing to QSO at 50 wpm or 55 wpm but so far none of the Montenegro stations have been heard in KH6. Difficult path and I don't thing they're putting out...
I have received a call from W7IX's (SK) mother asking me about the value of several of the hf yagi's that Ron had in the air. I don't even know where to start...
Thanks much gents. Received the info and found them all.... She appreciates it very much. If you live near Klamath Falls Oregon so they will be selling some...
My printer runs em off pretty cheaply, especially when I use black-only ink. I buy 400 sheets of cardstock at Wallmart for something around 5 bucks. That makes...
I use the free QSLMaker.exe . Dont have the url, but its bouncing around in several sites. Several of the ham radio programs like MixW (commercial) and...
The Dominoex contest starts at 0000 UTC July 15th. For folks in the North American, this puts the contest start just around the time 20M and above begin to...
I wonder, from the contesting perspective, if anyone got enough experience with DominoEX this weekend to compare it to RTTY contesting? I worked the Dominoex...
