With electronic log submission easy to enforce, just invalidate any
QSOs by W/VE run stations in the window.
That's not practical to enforce via logs because some participants
may be using radios that have no connection to the computer other than
the
key line.

Rule 6.1 for the ARRL 160...
The segment 1.830 to 1.835 should be used for
intercontinental QSOs only.
Note that it says should be. IMHO, following the suggestion
just makes the contest more fun for everyone.

I can only figure one possible how someone is exactly on PTOS Fx and
repeated keep calling directly on the DX Transmit frequency and that
is that they have their radio set split and then reversed it while
still listening to both frequencies simultaneously. This way they
would hear the DX
QRP will work if most of the country is clear of storms,
otherwise it can be tough copy at the stormy end!! Looks
like it might be stormy/noisy toward the right coast on
Saturday night.

My Beverages run through forest. Falling trees caused many wire
breaks and high maintenance until I started using strain disconnects
at all ends. I use a fuse link of #18 soft copper wire between the
end insulator and the support pole/tree.
That's good. Better than

can be done right in the shack.

LED lamp noise is being discussed on the RFI relector. Those
of you who have HS or Broadband internet will want to look at this!!

Assuming 75-ohm inputs, what's the tolerance

page 7-23, figure 7-24?

Scott,
I use a front end saver. Homebrew from CQ Magazine, Feb 1997.
I think Far Circuits still sells a circuit board for that, but it's
a simple device to build, so perfboard will work too.

that will give you the attenuation you desire while keeping the
