Sri guys. Terrible noise here. Try slow calls up a bit…? Dan Presley 503-701-3871 danpresley@me. com N7CQR@...

I am sorry for having sent my message to N7CQR about tomorrow night's sprint to the reflector instead of directly to Dan. I like reflectors that are set up for reply directly to the poster with an option to send to entire list instead of the default being reply to entire list. Be that as it may, it is no excuse for my mistake. Very sorry. 72, John, K4BAI.

Looks like John N4BAI and I will be your 40 meter foxii tomorrow. I'll be using my IC-7300 to a good ol dipole or a ground mounted vertical from south central MN. You all know the routine by now. Good luck and have fun! 72s, Jim N0UR

Monday evening QRP Fun! Overview & Rule Summary FOR THE ADVENTURE RADIO SOCIETY SPARTAN SPRINT What is an ARS Spartan Sprint and how can I participate? The Adventure Radio Society Spartan Sprint is a two hour casual QRP contest. It is held on the first Monday of every month to encourage QRP operators to get on and go to somewhere near the standard QRP frequencies on the 80-40-20-15-10 Meter bands for an evening of fun. It is open to all QRP CW operators – there is not any membership requirement. Operating portable and/or using lightweight minimalist (spartan) equipment is encouraged, but is not required. THE CONTEST PERIOD FOR EACH TIME ZONE IS: EASTERN 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Local. CENTRAL 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Local MOUNTAIN 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Local PACIFIC 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Local Does not shift for DST – This event is always at these Local Times (UTC for STANDARD TIME : 0100Z to 0300Z) (UTC for DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME : 0000Z to 0200Z) POWER OUTPUT To keep with its minimalist theme, Maximum Spartan Sprint power output is 5 watts. However, a Spartan Sprint participant running 5 watts who is submitting results is allowed to work a non-QRP station. That contact will count. (A Non-QRP station is not permitted to submit results for this QRP event.) OPERATION We operate CW on 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10 meters, around standard QRP frequencies. Call CQ SP Or listen for calling stations. EXCHANGE - Your Call Sign - Your State or Province - Your Power output SCORING Scoring is somewhat unique - score is calculated based on [Number of Contacts] / [Station Weight]. Working the same station on a different band counts as another contact. The weight of your station consists of everything except your antenna and feed line. If your station includes your home-based rig, antenna tuner, DC power supply, heavy paddle or bug - obviously you are not lightweight - simply report your weight as 30 lbs. (That is the default weight for the Tubby division.) REPORTING To report your results, go to 3830scores.com 3830 Scores Home , and select the ‘ARS Spartan Sprint’ (on the Left side). You will enter your [Station Weight] and the [Number of Contacts] that you made. Soapbox comments may include your power, equipment, antennas, band conditions, outdoor experiences, and anything else you wish to comment on. Scores will be Automatically Calculated Reports will be available for both the Skinny (lightweight) and Tubby (heavyweight) entrants. Looking forward to working you during the next Spartan Sprint. 73, Jody – K3JZD on behalf of Russ Carpenter - AA7QU and Richard Fisher - KI6SN The Adventure Radio Society Pioneers Last Updated : 09SEP24 Mark Prather - WB9HFK Celebrating my 53rd year as an Amateur Radio (Ham) Operator.

Welcome aboard, several Brand New Hounds! A Brand New Hound is someone who has not participated in any band before.

It was a pretty good night for 80M I was able to hold 3563.6KHz without much trouble (it pays to avoid 35xx.0 KHz frequencies, where the nets are most likely to be). I went simplex when the pack thinned out at around 0250. I managed to pull out a few more weak ones, but there were some that popped only long enough to catch a letter or two. I'm pretty sure it was either AK1P or N1IX calling at 0305, but I never copied a complete call sign or exchange, so that one did get away. John K4BAI claimed an insurance pelt with five minutes to go, but he did make it the first time around. So I count 48 unique hounds claiming their pelt, plus the two foxes for a grand total of 50. Thank you all for coming out and making it enjoyable! 72, --Tim (KR0U) UTC Call RST QTH Name Pwr Comments ---------------------------------------- 0200 KZ5J 579 559 TX PAT 5W 0202 WX2S 559 559 NJ STEVE 5W 0202 NO2D 599 599 CO PETER 5W 0203 K0LOA 559 559 TX DWAIN 5W 0204 WA9CW 579 559 WI TOM 5W 0205 KG5UK 559 559 OK BRAD 5W 0206 N9NE 579 569 WI TODD 5W 0206 K9CW 579 579 IL DREW 5W 0207 KD5KC 559 559 TX MIKE 5W 0208 WC7S 599 599 WY DALE 5W 0209 K6XR 559 559 CA MAC 5W 0209 W9XU 559 559 WI LON 5W 0210 WB9HFK 559 559 IL MARK 5W 0211 W6SIY 559 559 CA KEITH 5W 0212 KK5LD 579 599 TX DAN 5W 0213 K7GO 559 559 MT LEW 5W 0214 K9IUA 539 559 IA KEVIN 5W 0215 K4BAI 539 559 GA JOHN 5W See 0325 0216 ND4U 539 559 TN DEN 5W 0217 AL7V 559 559 OK SAM 5W 0217 N4KV 559 559 AL JOHN 5W 0218 N2RK 559 599 NY JACK 5W 0220 KO4VW 539 559 GA STEVE 5W 0221 N9WKE 539 559 IL BRUCE 5W 0222 N2TNN 539 559 VA DEAN 5W 0223 W1FMR 539 559 FL JIM 5W 0225 K6FA 539 559 CA DAVID 5W 0226 K0DTJ 539 569 CA BRIAN 5W 0227 NC4RT 559 559 NC RANDY 5W 0228 NK9G 559 559 WI RICK 5W 0228 N0YJ 539 559 KS BERT 5W 0229 N4MJ 559 559 TN GLENN 5W 0230 W9OD 539 559 WI CRAIG 5W 0233 KK4BNC 539 559 GA RANDY 5W 0235 AK3X 339 559 MD PETER 5W 0236 K6PJV 339 559 CA DALE 5W 0238 WA4ZOF 229 339 GA TOM 5W 0239 N8SS 239 559 MI EARL 5W 0240 ND4K 539 559 GA DAVE 5W 0242 KI0MZ 539 559 CO STEVE 5W 0243 WQ0N 539 559 MN RUSS 5W 0244 AC0BQ 559 579 KS JOHN 5W 0247 NN4K 229 559 GA MAC 5W 0252 K9DRP 559 559 IL DON 5W 0257 K2SJB 339 559 NY DAVE 5W 0301 W2SH 339 549 NJ CHAS 5W 0305 AK1P?

Greetings, hounds new and old! This week will be my second run on 80M, along with Tony KT0AA. Please look for us between 3550 and 3570 KHz starting at 0200 UTC. I'm in northern Colorado, DN70kg, and Tony is in Missouri, so every hounds from coast to coast should have a good chance of bagging at least one pelt! I'll be running my KX3 with the 43 foot vertical as the main antenna and a low dipole to fill in the short skip paths. I'll start out listening up, and will go simplex when conditions and the pack permit. Please remember to listen between your calls, and if I ask for a partial call please stand by unless the partial is a close match to yours! Good luck to all the hounds, and may the propagation be with us! 72, --Tim (KR0U)

Here is my log from last night. I went simplex at 0315 or so. Very few contacts and a lot of QSB on my end. Most stations were quite weak. Thanks for my last outing on 40M as your FOX. Let me know if something isn't correct. I had a bit of an issue on one Q and lost the contact before I hit return to log that station. I believe he came back to me again when he didn't see the confirmation on the map. 0200 W6SIY 559 CA KEITH 5w 0201 K9CW 559 IL DREW 5w 0202 K0DTJ 599 CA BRIAN 5w 0203 WB5BKL 559 TX NICK 5w 0204 K7GO 559 MT LEW 5w 0204 K6XR 559 CA MAC 5w 0205 KD5KC 599 TX MIKE 5w 0206 NO2D 559 CO PETER 5w 0207 KR0U 579 CO TIM 5w 0208 NK3H 599 AZ MITCH 5w 0210 WQ0N 559 MN RUSS 5w 0210 W6ESE 599 CA LEN 5w 0213 WA4ZOF 559 GA TOM 5w 0214 WC7S 559 WY DALE 5w 0216 N5KIP 559 TX DICK 5w 0217 KG5UK 559 OK BRAD 5w 0218 WB8QZM 559 TX BRIAN 5w 0219 KZ5J 559 TX PAT 5w 0221 KB5FCF 559 OK JOEL 4w 0222 W5AJD 559 LA JERRY 5w 0222 K0LOA 559 TX DWAIN 5w 0224 K9IUA 559 IA KEVIN 5w 0225 W9OD 559 WI CRAIG 5w 0225 N4MJ 559 TN GLENN 5w 0228 K6PJV 559 CA DALE 5w 0228 KK5LD 559 TX DAN 5w 0230 N2RK 559 NY JACK 5w 0231 AD6JV 559 CA BILL 5w 0232 NK9G 559 WI RICK 5w 0233 N4KV 559 AL JOHN 5w 0237 KK4BNC 559 GA RANDY 5w 0247 W9XU 559 WI LON 5w 0248 K4PQC 559 GA PHIL 5w 0250 WB9HFK 559 IL MARK 5w 0252 NN4K 559 GA MAC 5w 0253 K3UT 559 GA PHIL 5w 0254 NC4RT 559 NC RANDY 5w 0256 K9DRP 559 IL DON 5w 0256 N9NE 559 WI TODD 5w 0300 N2TNN 559 VA DEAN 5w 0301 VE3NFK 559 ON JOHN 5w 0302 KI0RB 559 CO VINCE 5w 0304 N0YJ 559 KS BERT 5w 0305 KC1FB 559 CT JIM 5w 0307 K9TA 559 IN STEVE 5w 0308 N9WKE 559 IL BRUCE 5w 0311 K2SJB 559 NY DAVE 5w 0315 ND4K 559 GA DAVE 5w 0318 ND4U 559 TN DEN 5w 0330 NR3Z FOX PA MARTY 5w 0330 NK6A FOX CA DON 5w -- Don Minkoff NK6A

Log out tomorrow. Really tough night for me. Stations were very ESP and QSB like. Had a few glitches with my radio at the beginning but all cleared up and I found my rhythm. I think N9CW was trying at the end but just could not copy enough to make an exchange. Calif stations were loud as usual along with a few in CO and one in Texas. Time for a wee dram and dinner. Looks like 49 tonight. -- Don Minkoff NK6A

All, Thank you for a great hunt. Signals were strong for the first hour and then faded to noise after that. Sorry for the stations I could not copy but I was only getting single letters but I could not pull out a call. Around 10:10 someone decided to start CQing on my frequency without a QSL. I had to move up 2kHz and worked one last station. I thought I had set up my logging SW to send the RST that I entered but that did not seem to work. I did log the your RST and it is listed below.

I swapped out dates with KW4NJA for this weeks 40M hunt. Marty, NR3Z, will be the other FOX. Look for me between 7.030 and 7.050 Khz this Tuesday, at 0200 UTC. I'll start out split listening up 2-3 Khz. Spread out. When the action slows down I'll operate simplex. The rain last night should have cleaned off the ashes from my Yagi. Running 5W from my FTDX101MP. Good Luck. Don, NK6A -- Don Minkoff NK6A
