OK, I'm tooting my own horn a bit


 

开云体育

I finally got the LOTW confirmation for South Dakota on CW, thanks to the W1AW/0 VOTA operation. That was the last one I needed (for about 3 years now) for the Triple Play award.? I’m worked SD on CW before, and I even got a card, but the triple play award is for LOTW only.? So I finally managed to get a SD CW op who uploaded to LOTW.? Yeee Haw!

?

Soooooo, if you log into LOTW and on the home screen look at the latest Triple Play WAS Award Winners, you may see a familiar call sign.? ?? Serial number 2599.?

?

I also have 8 grids confirmed now on satellite!? Only 92 more to go for VUCC!?

?

Dave UW


 

Congratulations Dave. And still no key?

And congrats, Dave. I worked all of the states on CW/Digital/SSB during the W1AW/x year of operation a few years back. Confirmation on 149 of them (plus a few DX ones, like AH8/W1AW), but have not been able to get the SSB WY from them. I guess I need to put in the effort to find one on the air.?

Hey Tim,

Just trying to retain 65% of what Eddie has taught me.? ??

?

RS-44 is the only satellite I’m having any success with.? CAS-4A/4B and the XW-2 alphabet seem to be dead (I don’t hear me or anyone else on them), but AMSAT’s status page says they are working.? Maybe there’s still a secret or two I need to learn.? I hear the FM repeater on ISS really well, but I’m a bit puzzled on the protocol for making a contact.? Seems to be a bedlam of folks throwing out call sign and grid, but no clear two-way between any two specific stations.? Just “biggest mouth wins”.? I may try ISS at 2am some time when there should be fewer folks on.?

?

In the meantime, I’m sure enjoying RS-44!?

Hey Tom!

Triple Play is just WAS on CW, phone, and digital.? Not a big deal, but it took me forever to get a LOTW confirmation for SD on CW.? Had everything else confirmed in 2018 when I started to get into CW a bit.? Phone and digital WAS were finished years ago, with digital being RTTY (remember RTTY?).

?

A trip to Alaska is on my bucket list.? Won’t be next year, as we’re going back to Yellowstone and SD/MT/WY again.? Maybe 2025.? Margaret is interested in the glacier-watching boat trip thing.

I feel your pain, Mike.?

?

In the last few years I’ve worked every W0 I could in any contest, and a few W0’s in SD qso parties, trying to get an LOTW confirmation.? I even got a card or two, but no LOTW.? This year’s VOTA event finally got it on LOTW for me.?
