Re: Event #5 - Roster & Results #scores

 

MY Bad!!!

I should have remembered that ....
And next time I will get a lot bigger group of code?groups....
Reminded me of receiving messages when I was in service.
Most of our classified messages came in those five letter groups.

Got a lot of practice, since you had to get 100% copy to get the message
decrypted.? Never forget that onion skin paper and several sheets in the
"Mill" at the same time.? When the messages came in you would copy one,
put a TOR on the bottom and then send QRV for the next message.

They usually came in spurts and some to back up whatever was on the first
classified message.
Then to run to the back room, turn the tumblers and decode the messages.

Oh,yeah miss those days.

Hi John Paul,

I use a paper log myself, then transcribe my RX groups to a text file after the event. I also usually print a hard copy of my TX List (in "easy read" font size) and cross off each group after I transmit it.

This seems convenient for me as I've always used a paper log, My computer is kept quite busy with various event management tasks though. If I were only operating in the event and not managing it I'd be perfectly happy to use only paper.

(BTW, the next RG event will be next month, not next week.)

73,

I will watch for how you all use spotting for this too.
I watched the SKCC SKED page and found some of you there.

I will also ask for a lot more code groups in anticipation of making more contacts.??
Thanks to all who answered me or to those I contacted.??

See you next week.
