To have contest on TWO DAYS a week is TOO much , for SEVEN Days its insufferable. I don't understand why cell phones aren't included. - Mike - They should be , after all they can be used to control an EchoLink or IRLP Node . I Should also add that this contest is on for a FULL MONTH , that's a full 28 days or more . If I remember MattD had some suitable comment a day or so back. DieSea Great....I'll join in if someone can help me get my CW Key to operate on it. Dan/W4NTI There would be no reason why you can't use CW over IRLP. Stop bagging IRLP, if you don't like it then don't use it! WAKE UP! There are so many different things you can do on Amateur Radio, there is room for everyone. I just checked, there are a total of 1591 IRLP nodes, 1034 active, 879 idle and 105 in calls. This indicates the following to me: 1. IRLP is a popular way of communications on Amateur Radio. 2. This contest is going to have very little impact on any one local node. Big deal someone is going to dial it up, put out a call either they will make a contact or they won't and then they will close the link! Get over it! Go back to your CW if you want, who bothers you or bags you for using it, I know I certainly don't. -- The views I present are my own and NOT of any organisation I belong to. 73 de Simon, VK3XEM. http://www.aca.gov.au/pls/radcom/cli...IENT_NO=157452 VoIP http://www.TALKonIP.com.au/ |
