QSO PARTY DAY 2023 edition

 

Given the big success of the 4th edition and the worldwide growth achieved in the new format of a minicontest,

A.R.I Loano has organized the 5th edition of the QSO Party Day for 2023.

The aim is to make our club known to a new generation, bring together all those who truly love and

believe in telegraphy, and promote the MARCONI CLUB A.R.I. LOANO, founded on May 8th, 1988, by

Libero Meriggi I1YXN, who was strongly motivated by the famous DXpeditioner Baldur DJ6SI.

Our historic club has over 900 members around the world who are passionate about this stupendous and

magnificent art. During this event, we will try to have as many members involved as possible.

Date: January 7, 2023

Time: 07:00 UTC – 21:00 UTC

Bands: 20m - 40m - 80m

Mode: CW

Objective: For amateurs around the world to contact as many other amateurs and MARCONI CLUB

A.R.I. Loano members as possible.

Exchange: All stations will call “CQ MCD”.

Members of MARCONI CLUB A.R.I. Loano will pass RST+MC+membership number in 3-

digit format (599 MC123).

Non-members will pass RST + progressive serial number (599 001).

Points: 5 Points for each QSO made with members of MARCONI CLUB A.R.I. Loano

1 Point for each QSO made with non-member stations

Each station can be worked once per band.

Multipliers: Every MARCONI CLUB A.R.I. LOANO member counts as a multiplier on each band.

Scoring: The final score is the result of the total QSO points multiplied by the total number of

multipliers.

Logs: Logs must show for each contact: correct date and time in UTC, band, callsign worked,

exchange sent, and exchange received. A log without all required info will be reclassified

 

as a CHECKLOG. Log must be EXCUSIVELY in CABRILLO format, no other format will

Software: It is recommended to use QARTest, N1MM, or DXLog as these software packages

support the MCD contest.

Ranking: Entries will be ranked according to their point totals. If two stations have the same score,

the station with the greater QSO count will be ranked higher. If an entry has an excessive

number of QSOs that are unable to be verified, that entry will be disqualified from

appearing in the rankings. All decisions of the Secretary and the Award Manager of the

MARCONI CLUB A.R.I. Loano, organizer of the event, are final.

Prizes: We will issue a plaque for the first-place MC member station and a plaque for the firstplace

non-member station.

To

 

OM / YL / Club's and Group's ! 

 

We finished another year. It was a very difficult year for humanity.

 

But life goes on, and we have to look for strength and hope that HUMANITY (through doctors and scientists) will overcome and defeat this virus.

 

For all of us at the CWJF GROUP, it is a great joy to be leaving the difficult year of 2020 behind, but also VERY SAD by the pandemic that still scares the world with the terrible virus of COVID - 19, which is killing friends, relatives and also radios amateurs.

 

Our CWJF GROUP, starts the year 2021 (when we will complete 36 years of foundation and uninterrupted activities, on May 31, 2021), with 460 MEMBERS, being distributed in 24 States of Brazil and in the federal capital and we also have MEMBERS spread over 110 countries, located on 6 continents.

 

We have gained this CONFIDENCE and CREDIBILITY through much WORK AND DEDICATION over these almost 40 years.

 

Recalling that from that golden generation of the 70s and 80s, when countless CW Groups appeared in Brazil, only our CWJF GROUP remains, which remains ALIVE and ACTIVE.

 

Unfortunately, all those large groups of CW in Brazil, such as GPCW, CWSP, CWDF, PPC, CWRJ, CWP, CWAS, CECW and many others, ended up ending their activities.

 

It is important to highlight that, in recent years, the major motivating factor for the continuity of the activities of the CWJF GROUP (in addition to the constant support that we continue to receive from our valued Members and collaborators), has been the challenge we started in 2011 with CQMM DX CONTEST, an important international CW contest, and a source of pride for all of us Brazilians and, why not say, also for South American radio amateurs.

 

As stated in our regulation, the result of the CQMM DX CONTEST / 2020 will be released in the month of FEBRUARY and we can anticipate THAT ALMOST ALL THE WORLD RECORDS have been surpassed, and we approached 2,500 logs received from the participants.

 

We are very proud of this great achievement and we want to DIVIDE with all the participants of the CW contests, our joy.

 

The Board of the CWJF GROUP ends this e-mail, wishing you and all your family, that your year 2021 is filled with a lot of HEALTH, JOY, SUCCESSES and many DX's.

 

We hope to meet you at the CQMM DX CONTEST, in APRIL / 2021.

 IMPORTANT OBSERVATION : 

 

The CWJF GROUP is also committed and concerned about this pandemic that has rocked the world and wishes you and your family a lot of health. 

 

Be very careful with COVID-19, as this terrible virus is causing a lot of pain and sadness in several families. 

 

Everyone should follow the recommendations and guidelines of the health areas.

 

 

 

Members of HA5KKC, HA8KVK and HG0DQR invite you to participate in the  Straight Key Night activity on 80 and 40 m

In order to participate, simply send „CQ SKN” or answer a CQs that have SKN in them, and make a QSO. The aim of this friendly event is to enjoy some good, old-fashioned fun: using straight key and not keyers or computers.

As for me, I'm going to dust off my old german 124-402A-1 key, which was used in WWII and I will operate on 40 and 80 meters in CW. Hopefully you'll realize that almost all ops during this event will be very patient with those who has never operated such a straight key. You may even wish to build a simple handkey for this event! Mistakes are okay. Speed of sending is not serious concern.

When you give your signal report, send „SKN 599 or SKN 569, etc.”in order to inform your partner about that you are taking part on this event. Just try it and have a good time! Don't forget to send short report, comments or interesting photographs of your SKN adventure to DQ_Radio Society, info@dqradio.org, not later than 15 December, 2020.

The winner of the title „Best Fist” and „Most Interesting QSO” will be introduced in March 2021 at the QRP meeting in Debrecen and on the site of DQ_radio ( www. dqradio.org ) 73!

Samuel Morse

 

 

While teaching arts and design at New York University in 1835, Morse proved that signals could be transmitted

by wire. He used pulses of current to deflect an electromagnet, which moved a marker to produce written codes

 

on a strip of paper. This led to the invention of Morse Code.

 

 

The following year, the device was modified to emboss the paper with dots and dashes. He gave a public

 

demonstration in 1838, but it wasn't until five years later that Congress, reflecting public apathy, awarded him 

 

$30,000 to construct an experimental telegraph line from Washington to Baltimore, a distance of 40 miles.

 

 

Six years later, members of Congress witnessed the transmission of messages over part of the telegraph line.

 

Before the line had reached Baltimore, the Whig party held its national convention there and nominated

 

Henry Clay on May 1, 1844. The news was hand-carried to Annapolis Junction, between Washington and

 

Baltimore, where Morse's partner Alfred Vail wired it to the capitol. This was the first news dispatched by

 

electric telegraph.

 

 

What Hath God Wrought?

 

 

The message "What hath God wrought?" sent by "Morse Code" from the old Supreme Court chamber in the

 

United States capitol to his partner in Baltimore officially opened the completed line on May 24, 1844. Morse

 

allowed Annie Ellsworth, the young daughter of a friend, to choose the words of the message and she selected

 

a verse from Numbers XXIII, 23: "What hath God wrought?" to be recorded onto paper tape. Morse's early

 

system produced a paper copy with raised dots and dashes, which were translated later by an operator.

 

 

The Telegraph Spreads

 

 

Samuel Morse and his associates obtained private funds to extend their line to Philadelphia and New York.

 

Small telegraph companies, meanwhile began functioning in the East, South and Midwest. Dispatching trains

 

by telegraph started in 1851, the same year Western Union began business. Western Union built its first

 

transcontinental telegraph line in 1861, mainly along railroad rights-of-way. In 1881, the Postal Telegraph

 

System entered the field for economic reasons and later merged with Western Union in 1943.

 

 

The original Morse telegraph printed code on tape. However, in the United States, the operation developed into

 

a process in which messages were sent by key and received by ear. A trained Morse operator could transmit 40

 

to 50 words per minute. Automatic transmission, introduced in 1914, handled more than twice that number.

 

In 1900, Canadian Fredrick Creed invented the Creed Telegraph System, a way to convert Morse code to text.

The electric telegraph is a now outdated communication system that transmitted electric signals over wires from location to location and then translated into a message.

 

The non-electric telegraph was invented by Claude Chappe in 1794. His system was visual and used semaphore, a flag-based alphabet, and depended on a line of sight for communication. The optical telegraph was later replaced by the electric telegraph, which is the focus of this article.

 

In 1809, a crude telegraph was invented in Bavaria by Samuel Soemmering. He used 35 wires with gold electrodes in water. At the receiving end, the message was read 2,000 feet away by the amount of gas produced by electrolysis. In 1828, the first telegraph in the USA was invented by Harrison Dyar, who sent electrical sparks through chemically treated paper tape to burn dots and dashes.

 

Electromagnet

 

In 1825, British inventor William Sturgeon (1783-1850) introduced an invention that laid the foundation for a large scale revolution in electronic communications: the electromagnet. Sturgeon demonstrated the power of the electromagnet by lifting nine pounds with a seven ounce piece of iron wrapped with wires through which the current of a single cell battery was sent. However, the true power of the electromagnet comes from its role in the creation of countless inventions to come.

 

Emergence of Telegraph Systems 

 

In 1830, an American named Joseph Henry (1797-1878), demonstrated the potential of William Sturgeon's electromagnet for long distance communication by sending an electronic current over one mile of wire to activate an electromagnet, causing a bell to strike.

 

In 1837, British physicists William Cooke and Charles Wheatstone patented the Cooke and Wheatstone telegraph using the same principle of electromagnetism.

 

However, it was Samuel Morse (1791-1872) who successfully exploited the electromagnet and bettered Henry's invention. Morse started by making sketches of a "magnetized magnet" based on Henry's work. Eventually, he invented a telegraph system that was a practical and commercial success.

 

Samuel Morse

 

While teaching arts and design at New York University in 1835, Morse proved that signals could be transmitted by wire. He used pulses of current to deflect an electromagnet, which moved a marker to produce written codes on a strip of paper. This led to the invention of Morse Code.

 

The following year, the device was modified to emboss the paper with dots and dashes. He gave a public demonstration in 1838, but it wasn't until five years later that Congress, reflecting public apathy, awarded him $30,000 to construct an experimental telegraph line from Washington to Baltimore, a distance of 40 miles.

 

Six years later, members of Congress witnessed the transmission of messages over part of the telegraph line. Before the line had reached Baltimore, the Whig party held its national convention there and nominated Henry Clay on May 1, 1844. The news was hand-carried to Annapolis Junction, between Washington and Baltimore, where Morse's partner Alfred Vail wired it to the capitol. This was the first news dispatched by electric telegraph.

 

What Hath God Wrought?

 

The message "What hath God wrought?" sent by "Morse Code" from the old Supreme Court chamber in the United States capitol to his partner in Baltimore officially opened the completed line on May 24, 1844. Morse allowed Annie Ellsworth, the young daughter of a friend, to choose the words of the message and she selected a verse from Numbers XXIII, 23: "What hath God wrought?" to be recorded onto paper tape. Morse's early system produced a paper copy with raised dots and dashes, which were translated later by an operator.

In 1900, Canadian Fredrick Creed invented the Creed Telegraph System, a way to convert Morse code to text.

 

Multiplex Telegraph, Teleprinters, & Other Advancements

 

In 1913, Western Union developed multiplexing, which made it possible to transmit eight messages simultaneously over a single wire (four in each direction). Teleprinter machines came into use around 1925 and in 1936 Varioplex was introduced. This enabled a single wire to carry 72 transmissions at the same time (36 in each direction). Two years later, Western Union introduced the first of its automatic facsimile devices. In 1959, Western Union inaugurated TELEX, which enabled subscribers to the teleprinter service to dial each other directly.

 

Telephone Rivals the Telegraph

 

Until 1877, all rapid long-distance communication depended upon the telegraph. That year, a rival technology developed that would again change the face of communication: the telephone. By 1879, patent litigation between Western Union and the infant telephone system ended in an agreement that largely separated the two services.

 

While Samuel Morse is best known as the inventor of the telegraph, he is also esteemed for his contributions to American portraiture. His painting is characterized by delicate technique and vigorous honesty and insight into the character of his subjects.

Rules „Russian hunt QRP marathon“

 

"Two Bear or not two Bear? That is the question"

 

 

Russian Hunt QRP marathon was founded by RU-QRP Club and takes place in two seasons:

winter  and summer. Both seasons consists of 6 rounds which tooks place on Thursday   

(February-March and August-September) from 18:00 till 19:00 UTC.

 

 

Hunt in both seasons used three bands: 80, 40 and 20 meters on frequencies: 14060 +/- 5

kHz, 7030 +/- 5 kHz, 3560 - 3580 kHz. We invite all licensed radioamateurs.
Ranks:
- QRP-"Hunters" (QRP up to 5 Watt)
- "Bears" (QRP up to 5 Watt)

 

In each round two QRP stations participate as "Bears". They are assigned from participants

("Hunters") who gathered more points in current season before incoming  round. "Bears" can

only work on general call - "CQ  QRP de CALL BEAR pse k". All "Hunters" can communicate with

"Bears" and other QRP "Hunters". General call for QRP "Hunters"  "CQ  HUNT de CALL QRP pse k".

Contacts  with other non-participants in hunt are also allowed.

 

Exchange with real RST, your name, output power. Only one QSO is allowed with the same

station in particular round. Duplicate QSOs are only allowed in other rounds.

Points:
- for QSO with "Bear" =
25 points
- for QSO with QRP-station =
3 points
- for QSO with QRO station = 1 point

Also, for each new invited participant you will get a 1 additional point.

Results calculated separately by ranks. Note that points gathered by the same participant in

"Bear" role are summed with his points gathered in "Hunter" role. Separate "Bears" rating is also

calculated.


Reports:
It is strongly desireable to submit your report just after the round finish. Deedline - same week

Saturday end. Report your logs in Cabrillo (Ermak) format. Here is a QSO entries examples:
