NG7M 2020 ARRL Sweepstakes SSB Live Operating

[@larryak0z672]

What a great 😃 time to listen to your operating! Thanks for sharing! You are teaching me.

Thanks for sharing. Always learning and I know that I am just scratching the surface of the N1MM software.

[@HamRadioTV]

Thanks for capturing this and sharing your thoughts.

Thank you for showing S&P and running. (And I, for one, appreciate seeing the mistakes and running commentary, as they're a valuable learning.) I feel like I'm using only 1% of N1MM functionality. For example, I didn't realize it was able to take the exchange in different order (e.g., W0GTL versus K7TD). 73, Jim WT8P

Hi Jim, yes the parser is really nice for the sweepstakes contest... if you keep the serial number and precedence run together and the check and section run together, you can just keep correcting as you go and it will parse the most recent values entered, and of course you can correct the callsign too as part of the exchange. I know what you mean though, there are still features I'm sure I'm missing out on in N1MM too. Need to browse through the manual now and then to keep up on the details. Max NG7M

Great video Max, thanks for sharing. I think we were on about the same time :)

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@AJSTOCKTON]

Thanks for sharing! I actually had to go dig my microphone for this contest out of my storage - see you next week for CW CQ DX - 73 NK4O

[@ng7m-ham-shack]

Hi AJ, yes... same here... and I was pretty rusty at the start. SSB can be fun too, but CW is my first choice. Max NG7M

I have 3 pairs of motorolla cp200 UHF and also 3 VHF cp200. Witch will give me a better a coverage and quality in urban area by using a repeater ?

[@ng7m-ham-shack]

Hmmmm, well this is an HF contest operating video where I was operating lower sideband on 7mhz. It sounds like you are happy with your UHF/VHF equipment, but it's totally unrelated to the topic of this video. Interesting comment. ;)
