Gentlemen,

I wanted to let the Group know that I have the CTRI Gin Pole as well as the bag of 1/2″ rope.

Pat NG1G came by Saturday to deliver them and got a quick look at the outdoor layout for the upgraded tower.

Sorry to be late in posting this. This is clearly one of the Champions competition contests. Mea Culpa! (again)

PS: Jim… I’ll copy your results from the email to here.

Bill N1HRA is looking for a pair of 572b tubes.  The amp is for sale on eBay, end when going to wrap the tubes for transport, 2 of them are shot.  If anyone has some for sale, please let him know.  Thanks

I am still receiving QSL cards for Special Events other than ours from the NEQP last year. On qrz.com there are still quite a few of the 1×1 call signs we used that reflect me as the QSL manager, which in part explains why I am still getting such cards sent to me.

If you obtained a 1×1 call sign and have not done so already, PLEASE go to qrz.com, sign in, and contact the Help Desk to have our information deleted from the call sign’s database. It seems that many people simply pay no attention to the QSL information on the page and just send me a card. It’s only a nuisance, but one that can be fixed in a few minutes.

I’d very much appreciate those of you who have not already done so taking a few minutes to rectify this.

73,

Pat, NG1G

If you played in this contest earlier this year, then you probably received the e-mail giving the URL for the results.  I spotted three other CTRI call signs that I recognized.  There may be more.

Anyone have any plans to get into the fray and make a few QSO’s?

Just post your plans, invites, needs right here, and we’ll see what we can come up with.

If anyone has a need for a Motrac  key, please let me know and I’ll send you one. If you don’t know what a Motrac key is, then you probably don’t have a need for one. 🙂 🙂

The ARRL DX SSB contest is this weekend. Please post your results here by replying to this posting.

Thanks! Good luck in the contest!

I put this on the SwapMeet…but not sure anyone reads that…so this is probably a violation.  Does anyone have a matched pair of 3-500Z amplifier tubes either NEW or USED (but still good)?  If so, please contact me at w1xx [AT] cox [DOT] net or 401-783-1588.  TNX & 73!!

Better late than never… I suppose. Please post your results by commenting to this posting.

Is someone going to open a thread for 160 SSB scores. I always seem to  it put it under the wrong header when I start a thread.

You can really tell we are on the other side of the cycle with the decrease of the DX stations participating in this contest.

I have always felt that this contest should be held in late December or January. By February the peak for 160 has passed.

Here’s my score:

 

 

 

Here is the updated CTRI Champions leaderboard that is current with information received through the 2013 ARRL DX CW contest last weekend. You should be able to download it by simply clicking on the link below. It is a Microsoft Excel (97-2003) spreadsheet.

I plan on operating in the NAQP RTTY Contest this coming

Saturday, and wonder if there is any interest in putting

together a team for the event ?  If so, I would like to be

included.
