[DX-CHAT] HFRadio.org
Does anybody have the latest scoop on when the HFRadio.org site will be up again? It's been down a long time now and I miss having access to their propagation page. Their temporary site just doesn't cut the mustard in showing current and projected propagation, at least in comparison to their regular prop page when it's up. 73, Ken We make a living by what we get.

Re: [personal] [DX-CHAT] QSL costs
I disagree. First, some people have tried to get rich at ham radio. How successful they were is debatable, but certainly no one would argue that none have tried. Second, In trying to walk in the shoes of DX ops of modest means I believe I would be content and happy to send out thousands of QSL cards so long as I zeroed out the cost of making the cards and return postage. I say this as a US op of modest means. To me, and I'm sure to many other hams QSLing is a pleasurable and integral part of ham radio. Those who consider it a chore and send a card only if they receive more than the cost of sending one should be scorned. lastly, some old ideas are still viable. If I send a card to a DX station with sufficient return postage attached I do expect a card in return. This expectation is based on my own set of ham radio values instilled in me for over 50 years. Why screw around with traditions that have served us well for so long? It's up to the new ops to adjust to our hobby's traditions and values not the other way around. Charles, You're a fine guy but I would not try to shame your fellow hams nor try to establish standards based on your own set of values. We are all different and entitled to practice our hobby in our own way. What you do is your business. Enough said. 73. Ken - Original Message - From: Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: dx-chat@njdxa.org Sent: Monday, July 18, 2005 12:03 PM Subject: [personal] [DX-CHAT] QSL costs I am disappointed to hear that any USA ham would not want to be generous with DX QSLing. A can of sugar water soda out of the vending machine is now a US dollar. We gotta get away from the old ideas that somehow we are owed a QSL card and want to send the minimum or less to help get one. I think any US ham should send any DX ham FIVE US DOLLARS freely if he wants a card back. Can we be so cheap otherwise? No one is gonna get rich at ham radio, believe me. If u disagree with me, please walk in the shoes of DX ops of modest means; then decide. 73 Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org

Re: [DX-CHAT] Freeband ops
That's funny, I've been a ham for 45 years and have known a lot of hams, but I don't know one ham who started out as a CBer. As a matter of fact most hams I know have a rather low regard for CBer's and their slang lingo. 10-4 good buddy? - Original Message - From: Kevin vk2ce To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 9:43 PM Subject: [DX-CHAT] "Freeband ops" This might seem like a dumb question but why the sudden interest in so-called freebanders. Operations on 11 meters have been around for years, otherwise known as CB or citizens band. Most of us amateurs started out on the CB band and a few have gone back there as well.

Re: [DX-CHAT] ER4DX
On 6 Sept I posted my comments regarding the problems of receiving QSL cards from ER land. This was after a rather lengthy thread on this subject. I stated that I had worked 5 ER stations and never received a card. I even identified who they were. Since then I received two cards within the past two days and I feel compelled to set the record straight. So I'm posting this to let everyone know that I received a card from ER1QQ via the bureau for a QSO on 11 Sep 01, and also one direct from ER7HQ for a QSO on 14 July 02. I cannot determine if the ER1QQ card was in response to receiving my card or not, but the ER7HQ definitely was. I don't know if this information sheds any light on this matter, but there is a lesson in it for me. 73, Ken W4OFE Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
