Unfortunatly
> I had problems with 1296 and never got it on the air.  This is the first
> contest that I had my new Ten-Tec 526 as my IF for 903 and I was real
happy
> with the performance.  The IF-DSP filtering really helped alot pulling in
> the CW signals from K2DRH.  On the downside, other than KF0Q, I was pretty
> much unable to work any rovers.  I never heard anyone from the Cedar
Rapids
> group and I heard N0DQS a few times, but could never get his attention.
