Way to low for me to get him. |

A right should restrict the government, not obligate it! It is America's love of, rather than fear of, democracy which is the little lie that coats the poison pill and makes it sweet to swallow. |

This SSB contest is so frustrating for me because I keep hearing all these great DX stations but Hawaii doesn't count for points except for mainland stations.

Yeah split; represents his listening window Right, so what you have to do is set your radio to RX on the freq he's xmt on and set your xmt to the freq he's listening to. Depending on the radio, it can be easy as pie or a pain in the ass. |
