I left my radio decoding FT8 Sigs on Topband the other night and was

been a false decode? I did not realize that there was a workable path
to 9K at
If you have concerns about the DXCC program then detail your concerns
with facts and contact the ARRL DXCC desk. They do take these
complaints seriously. I received QSL cards from the same person that
has two different calls in two different countries in EU. The location

Well said Tree – thanks so much for your observations on the subject.
And remember ladies and gentlemen: It is totally legal and acceptable to the
ARRL DX program to use remote transmitters and receivers for DXCC credit as
long as you are still inside the borders of your own country !

Perhaps some should not be so fast to judge. At my station in Arizona it
is possible to hear Africa and Europe 1-2 hours before sunset in the

This morning I worked 6 stations CW beaming NW low power in zones 23,16

At the big M/M W0AIH stn in Wisconsin, 90 acres, over 20 towers, Paul used
old junker refrigerators/freezers for remote junction boxes and base

They may not look pretty but they are usually free.

To All..
I decided to stay awake until SR in EU last night...
And it paid off well for me..
In an hour, I put 25 all time new calls into my log from EU.. Some were
30 minutes past EU sunrise...
It was a a GREAT NEW years gift for me,, and most of the time I had 5 or
6 stations all calling at

I am sure you have noticed some spots recently discussing some possible
unethical operations on topband by various stations.
I feel that I must step in and say something about these types of posts in

at least 6 feet wide by 4 feet high and 8 inches deep (supporting a minimum
of seven, 4-inch conduits entering from below), to house the entrance panel
