[W3GV] Upcoming Contests

Tue Jan 14 09:09:08 EST 2014

Good idea Craig....If you, and anyone else who wants to, would bring the  
software install programs over on disk and install it on the computer,  I 
will make a folder on the Desktop called "TEST LOGGING PROGRAMS, and  place the 
logging program in there, it will then be available for all  to try out, 
evaluate, and make a well educated vote. Also, being the computers  are old, 
it will determine if the program can even be loaded on the computer.  John 
and I had to install an older version of N3fjp's Program because the newest  
release would not install. The older one has 98% of what the new one has  
though...73,s   Mike...Wb3del

Why not  wait until we put a couple logging programs on the computer before 
we vote  on which one to keep.  That way people will have a chance to see 
the  
features of the various programs and will be better informed on what they  
want.  I have never used N3EQF so I would like to play with it before  I 
vote.  BTW I'll also miss the next meeting as I'll be in  Florida.

Have to  apologize here. I am overstepping by assuming that N3FJP's   Master
Logging Program be used by the Club in general. If there are   other
suggestions or preferences out there for our Master Log, and we   have 
already heard
some, then perhaps it would be best to discuss and  make  a decision/choice
at the next meeting. I will be away on  vacation that week and  will miss 
the
meeting....SOOOO. May I place an  absentee vote for  N3JFP's??

GM All...Just a reminder...We have  two contests we plan to operate  in this
weekend, Jan. 18-19..The  North American QSO Party-SSB and the ARRL  January
VHF Party.  Depending on attendance for the SSB contest, we could  consider
using  2 stations. So please try to contact me if you intend  to operate  
this
one. I would have to try to get the logging program  installed  and working
in the associated computer. For the time being, I intend   to use the N3FJP
logging program for the SSB contest, as we did for the CW  one  last 
weekend.
For the VHF contest, N3FJP also has a program, but  fine if  whoever is
working it wants to use a different one as long as  he, (or she),  can 
integrate
it into our N3FJP Master Amateur Log  when the contest is  over.

I do not see anything of interest the  w/e of 11/25-11/26, but if  anyone
sees one they would like to operate  in, post your interest so we  can all
consider to possibly join you.  Below, if you do not have it, is the  link 
for
the whole years  Contest Calendar...

_Contest Calendar: Home_  (http://www.hornucopia.com/contestcal/)

Looking forward...Feb. 1 - 2  there is the 10-10 International Winter
Contest-SSB. Do we have a 10-10  number?

For those of us that are single (or married), Feb. 8-9 the  YL-ISSB QSO
Party-CW (LOL!). Don't see much else those first 2 weekends of  Feb. Does
anyone?

Feb. 15 - 16 is a big one...ARRL International DX  Contest-CW. Followed
March 1-2 with the SSB one.I hope we can have a lot of  participation  in 
these
and have several rigs running. Even if you  are not a CW man,  come down and
help log!! No CW necessary. Whoever  is operating will give you  the contact
exchange and call to  enter..Very easy! Same goes for the SSB...Do  logging
if you are not  into contesting.

Fingers are  tired...73's...Mike...WB3DEL
