Folks, I just work'em. Most don't seem to mind. I have an exchange of calls and grids. Yes, I suppose if for some reason somebody not in the contest where to decide to send in a log and they hadn't logged me because they didn't get a signal report - why would they send in a log as they are not in the contest - I could get dinged. In this weekends contest I did not have a single person persist in sending R-xx. They just seemed to move on, too. If they didn't, I did and let it go.
The real answer is to move to FT4. From the ground up, a contest mode. Using 6 as an example let the non-contesters have FT8 and 50.313 and move the contesters to FT4 and 50.318. If you can run FT8 you can run FT4. The upgrade is a no-brainer. And FT4 is really, really fast and you have to pay attention - actually very cool! How much more kvetching we going to have about this? It's a *hobby.* John On Wed, Jul 24, 2019 at 6:34 PM Bill Frantz <[email protected]> wrote: > On 7/22/19 at 4:03 PM, [email protected] (Laurie, VK3AMA) wrote: > > >On 22/07/2019 7:16 am, Jim Brown wrote: > >>so I quickly switched out of contest mode to work him. :) > >> > >>What I WOULD like is to able to do this without going to > >>Settings Advanced.
