Re: [DX-CHAT] F Y I
Hi Tom: I agree with your stance on timely LOTW submissions. I support the 6 month rule. However, it is your choice to ask for a confirmation now or wait for it. The Colvin Award (administered by the ARRL) states 12 months uploads. Complaining about the $5 is that red herring. What's next, demanding free admission into Hamfair 2012 in Friedrichshafen because you have a right to see the shiny new boxes that cost thousands of dollars and buy the great beer (also costs $5)? See where this goes? See you in FN next month and we can discuss this further over that beer. I'll buy. Don N1DG At 08:49 AM 5/21/2012, Tom Wylie wrote: Isn't the sea full of red herrings just now.

Re: [DX-CHAT] DX-PEDITIONS FOR US POOR FOLKS?
that'll put you over the top and into the Honor Roll or to HR#1, maybe. If you're so poor that you can't afford $10 or $20 a couple of times a year, when you've bagged a biggie across a bunch of bands and modes, then there's something wrong and I definitely think you should reconsider your choice of hobby, or your desire to be a DXer. Yeah, there are DXpeditions that I work once or twice and I'll send an SASE or an IRC or even request a bureau card for. These are nominally the ones I worked just 'cuz they were there and I thought gee, it's been a couple of years since I workedentity onband. But if it's something I spend 2 weeks chasing up and down the spectrum, damned straight I'll toss at least $10-25 into the hat, maybe more if money's not as big an issue as it is now. - pjd -Original Message- From: kf...@njdxa.org [mailto:kf...@njdxa.org] On Behalf Of Ryan Jairam I don't begrudge a DXpedition for asking for a few $ or to covver their costs. It's your choice to work them. It may not fit someone's definition of ham spirit but I also understand that without the donations, many rare entities wouldn't be activated. It's just how it is. Some hams spend more than just money - they risk life and limb, just so you can get a QSO in the log. Ryan, N2RJ --- To unsubscribe or subscribe to this list.

Re: [DX-CHAT] KP5
Actually the KP1-KP5 guys got the Congress involved last fall in a great attempt to get the FWS to open up KP1 and KP5. In fact, it was Rep. Rahall who was the sponsor of H.R. 1183. Whoever has his ear obviously contributed big time to the Club Fed report. It was very critical of the FWS for failing to be consistent on not permitting ham radio operations for others. The problem is, by criticising the hams that did operate and causing the fuss while they were on the island the hams that are behind Rahall this time gave all ham radio a black eye. It may very well be a different ham who had this temper trantrum and nothing to do with the earlier group. 73 Don N1DG At 08:24 PM 6/29/2006, you wrote: Well Chuck it did give us a BLACK EYE because it got the U.S. Congress evolved.
