how about restricting non-contesters into a sub-band being that there would be fewer of them and more contesters. It has always been a free for all every contest weekend for the 37 years that I have been a ham. At 12:02 PM 1/9/2007, you wrote: Seems to me the obvious solution is to put

I agree Andy. Today , while 20M was hot with the RTTY contest, many non-contesters moved down to 40M for digital QSOs. There are also the WARC bands when the digital contests use 80,40,20,15, and 10M. Andy K3UK On 1/7/07, Andrew [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I worked the contest from Europe

condx were OK. de Roger W6VZV Like I said, for every QSO that gets stepped on the contest committee gets notified. If they start hammering a few maybe they will get it. I dont go into the RTTY bands during our contests calling CQ ... they should do the same Scotty W7PSK.
