There is a D Star Contest taking place over this week but I have heard
no one and no one has replied to calls. I don't want to go on to 001C
in case the bazookas from across the Atlantic are lined up on me!! So
any suggestions please for finding Reflectors/Repeaters where some
contest activity would be appropriate?
Thanks Graham
Forget reflectors and repeaters, Watch last heard and place a target
callsign in your urcall to callsign route, with a 20 character message
like "Contest pls 1 touch¨
Probably 1 out of 20 receiving your call will know how to callsign route
back to you (one touch your call).
In my opinion those using dplus links to contact a station, then give
them a lesson on callsign routing to log a contact are cheating, and are
putting the *Japanese contestants at a disadvantage.
They * will be following the rules.
