QRZ LOGGING K2B AS Christmas Birthday 2019

 

Heads up...
I have had two instances now of someone asking me what is up with this?? I don't know.
I created a log myself in QRZ and sure enough under Receiver Info the operator is "Christmas Birthday 2019"
and the state is "NY"
Re: 40 meter ssb now

 

I was working a nice pile up in my 5 to 7 slot on 40 meter SSB at 7178, when I saw K2B spotted ... at 7205.
And I told the guy who said he just worked her, "I'm the coordinator of this mess!"
I'll spot her ............

40 meter ssb now

 

Is there anyone on 40 Meter SSB now?
If not, I will start early.

Please help! I'm new to this and the Google spreadsheet. I cleared my
browser history then loaded the sheet, and saw an open slot for 9-11 AM,
so I entered my call. When I re-opened the sheet, my call was (and still
is) there.

Will someone please tell me if I'm doing something wrong? Is the sheet
that opens for the current day only? Is there a deadline for signing-up
for a slot?

I don't want to create problems, so will someone please give me some
guidance?

Thanks.

20M SSB 1-3 on 7/3

 

开云体育

I slipped in right behind N3MN on 14247 at 1pm and never looked back.

?

20M QSB was slower and less frequent today which made for some great runs.? 6’s and 7’s held their own pretty well with the Midwest.? I was able to pick up AL7TC for my first AK of the event.? I also had to remember to occasionally point the beam north and south to pick up the weaker VE’s and FL stations.

?

Once again the vast majority of folks new how to behave in a pileup it made things much less stressful even at rates of over 170/hr.? Ignoring those who threw their callsign in while I was still in QSO with someone seemed to help keep things in line. ?Overall I was really surprised at the good behavior and the resultant efficiency of operating.

?

The final count was 330 Qs in 2 hours, and a pleasant, friendly, and fun time by all.

?

I noticed W4TEA got right on frequency after me, keeping the K2B 20M SSB torch lit!

73,

OK, I see where I went wrong. I didn't notice the Day tabs at the bottom of the sheet. Now that I see them, I'll make sure I sign-up for the correct day.

I apologize for my error.

David,

I just finished up the 11A - 1P slot on 17M CW.? I found it very interesting watching RBN snr values go from 4db to 40db then back down over a few minutes.? I had to check a few times to be sure I wasn't on 6M.? Propagation seemed more like 6 than 17.

I was on 9 to 11.

I checked my log.

Last contact was 10:58…

Maybe somebody else jumped in?

I cut into Nick’s slot yesterday so I’m being careful.

Anyone want to fess up?

I was on the sked for 20 SSB from 11-1 but can't hear very well while monitoring as the 9-11 op is working that band/mode. Switching to 30m FT8, which was open on the spreadsheet. 73, Kay N3KN

Thanks again Rick.

Yes, groups.io will not let me set up a group unless I “moderate” a member’s initial post; after that, you are good to go.

I recently posted a new topic to the groups.io message area, but it did not show up on the web site.

I'm trying again with this message to see if it shows up.? Is it possible that new topics are moderated?

I think that perhaps many topics intended for this site ended up on last year's site.? There are more 2022 messages on the 2021 group than there are on the 2022 group.

Guys and gals,
I totally forgot about an obligation I made 6 weeks ago for our annual church fellowship picnic. I have had to cancel my FT8 on 17 11-1 and the 20 1-3. I apologize for this oversight and I ask if anyone can pick those up I appreciate it. I will be home probably about 230-300 and will get on air FT8 filling any open slots that I can.?
My apologies

One option is to just sort the available Qs list by callsign.? That’s what I did and they all get lumped together.? Lots easier than filters.

David,

I should have been more specific., I was trying to set up N1MM DX Cluster interface with Telnet. If anyone is interested it the command to do it, once you log into the cluster you can issue a filter command like this:

accept/spots 0 call k2a,k2e,k2f,k2h,k2k,tm13col,wm3pen,gb13col
