This time, we tried 40 and 80 meters and it worked out pretty well. I always feel good when the contest starts on one band and finishes on another. 80 meters was interesting in that there were two contests going on: one on the west coast and one on the east coast. Very few QSOs were made on 80 between these two groups. The contest started out pretty good for everyone. However, after about 30 minutes, 40 meters started getting weird (K6XO went to S0 here in Oregon). K4PQL seemed to be very loud everywhere, but we later found out why... Howie had confused the sprints and forgot to turn off his amplifier. More about this in the writeup. It seems that N6TR is making like KR0Y by wining his fifth consecutive Internet Sprint. In second place was Randy, K5ZD, with an amazing effort from the NorthEast. He never moved the S meter in Oregon. Randy also posted an amazing accuracy total with only one busted QSO (probably a typo after the contest). Even though my own name (Rafiki) got turned into Tree after one QSO, I am happy to see many people had their names last until the end of the contest. There were a few "clueless" people out there, but they made fewer contacts than usual. Thanks again to everyone for their participation and a big THANK YOU to John Zapisek, K2MM, who made the results possible. His software is getting better and better. This time, I think he only had one all nighter to get the results instead of several. Your annotated logs will be sent to you in the e-mail. The next Internet Sprint will probably be the first or second weekend of April (ie: Just before Visalia and Dayton). Now, over to John--- Tree N6TR ######## FINAL RESULTS -- SIXTH INTERNET SPRINT Date 9501 9407 9404 9401 9310 9305 Logs Submitted 29 45 29 30 26 29 Calls Worked 64 88 54 55 47 74 Reported 20m QSOs 0 3258 1457 2170 1552 2471 Reported 40m QSOs 2115 247 1081 758 574 2 Reported 80m QSOs 619 0 0 0 0 0 Reported QSOs Matched 2386 3044 2394 2772 1912 2082 Reported QSOs Unmatched 348 461 144 156 214 391 Total Reported QSOs 2734 3505 2538 2928 2126 2473 Known QSOs Matched 1193 1522 1197 1386 956 1041 Known QSOs Unmatched 348 461 144 156 214 391 Total Known QSOs 1541 1983 1341 1542 1170 1432 Percent Matched 77.4 76.8 89.3 89.9 81.7 72.7 #OK = your score #NG = contacts not credited RXNG = you busted the call/number/name/qth of the station you worked TXNG = the station you worked busted your call/number/name/qth DUPE = you worked the same station within 3 previous non-dupes CALL #OK #NG RXNG TXNG DUPE ACCURACY (each * is 2% above 50%) n6tr 163 5 1 4 0 97.0 *********************** k5zd 147 1 1 0 0 99.3 ************************ k6ll 138 6 2 3 1 95.8 ********************** wa2srq 134 4 2 2 0 97.1 *********************** n4tqo 130 3 1 3 0 97.7 *********************** k2tw 128 5 1 4 0 96.2 *********************** n4ogw 125 4 3 1 0 96.9 *********************** wd0t 125 6 0 4 2 95.4 ********************** k6xo 120 5 2 3 0 96.0 *********************** ab6fo 118 8 6 0 2 93.7 ********************* wq5l 117 2 0 1 1 98.3 ************************ n6pn 115 6 4 2 0 95.0 ********************** ve4vv 110 7 1 5 1 94.0 ********************** nv6o 104 9 5 4 0 92.0 ********************* k8jlf 98 2 0 2 0 98.0 ************************ w7zrc 93 6 3 2 1 93.9 ********************* n6ip 91 7 6 0 1 92.9 ********************* n1ee 89 2 0 2 0 97.8 *********************** wn3k 60 14 11 1 3 81.1 *************** ae0m 59 8 0 4 5 88.1 ******************* n7lox 35 2 2 0 0 94.6 ********************** wd9ggy 34 1 0 1 0 97.1 *********************** dl1iao 31 2 0 2 0 93.9 ********************* k2mm 28 0 0 0 0 100.0 ************************* aa9d 21 5 1 4 0 80.8 *************** n2aa 11 0 0 0 0 100.0 ************************* k1kp 11 4 4 0 0 73.3 *********** kh6cp 7 0 0 0 0 100.0 ************************* na4k -21 21 0 0 0 0.0 No log k9zo -24 24 0 0 0 0.0 No log g4buo -26 26 0 0 0 0.0 No log n6nr -38 38 0 0 0 0.0 No log k0ej -69 69 0 0 0 0.0 No log kn5h -104 104 0 0 0 0.0 No log k4pql -838 1006 2 3 1 96.4 QRO penalty *********** #OK + #NG is the raw claimed score. #NG is the number of busted contacts. Some contacts may be busted for more than one reason, so RXNG + TXNG + DUPE may be greater than #NG. Stations making more than 20 QSOs that did not submit a log were penalized one point per unreported QSO! Remember, busted Qs are removed from both the sender's and receiver's logs, and ACCURACY reflects both sending and receiving errors and dupes. All submitters' annotated logs will be returned to them via e-mail. Non- submitters can get copies of their reconstructed logs by sending a request to k2mm@maspar.com. AMAZING ACCURACY This SprINT saw a new world's record set for most QSOs by a station with 100% accuracy. VE5VA's old record of 8 was obliterated by, ahem, John/K2MM with 28 perfect Qs. Gene/N2AA and Zack/KH6CP also had perfect (but smaller) logs. Well-deserved congratulations go to Randy/K5ZD for making 148 Qs and losing only one. This is truly remarkable because Randy lost ZERO Qs to miscopying on the other end. Qs busted for TXNG are hard to control, though you can improve your odds by clean sending and avoiding excessive QRQ. The TXNG=0 opportunity for a perfect log is a rare occurrence, so it's really a shame that Randy blew this chance by busting just one callsign: 40 9999 k5zd 20 derrick ma dk1iao 3 mark dx -NG- 40 0115 dl1iao 3 mark dx k5zd 20 derrick ma ^^ Randy worked DL7IAO seven times and got his call wrong (DK7IAO) only once. Fat fingers, no doubt. Nevertheless, great job, Randy! A REAL HORSE-RACE Howie/K4PQL gave N6TR a real run for his money this time by forgetting to turn off his amplifier. Howie now shares with Jim/N3BB and Mark/WA6OTU/W6AQ the distinction of having submitted a SprINT QRO check-log. Howie said he confused the Internet SprINT with the regular NA Sprint (the "BIG Sprint"). I'm sure Howie isn't the first to jump into this contest without reading all the rules. (See you in the Big Sprint next month, Howie!) The following graph shows the race between Tree and Howie minute by minute. The x-axis for THIS graph is a constant rate of 160 QSOs per two hours. Each line above/below the x-axis is one valid QSO more/less than that rate.

Hmmm. I wonder if MOHAMED really did go to NM5M's mountain-top QTH? IN THE BEGINNING, TREE CREATED GOD MOHAMED's manager, GOD, also made an appearance. He first appeared in a QSO between KN5H and N6TR. Tree says his tape clearly shows that KN5H sent GOD, not TOD. It's not clear, though, that Tree's tape is immune to supernatural tampering! n6pn 1 matt ==-===-============n6tr= n6ip 14 todd -n6nr-aa6kx= k6xo 23 tod =-=wn3k-na4k= ve4vv 26 todd ========-===k6ll= wa2srq 35 tod =ab6fo-kn5h= n6tr 50 god =-============-=====================-====n4ogw= n6ip 58 randy ===-=====k6ll+wd0t Supernatural but apparently not immortal.

Or maybe he just beamed himself up? ROVING AND RETURNING ROD One past SprINT saw James Bond, AA5BT, venture into the ether with the name "oo7". Though it got horribly mangled many times along the way, it somehow managed to reconstitute itself every time and returned home to AA5BT at the end as good as new. Last SprINT saw K2TW's TOM make the round trip totally unmangled and unscathed.

VIRTUAL DAVE Physicists say the ether is filled with a soup of virtual particles. Created in pairs, their existence before recombining is so brief they cannot be detected below the Heisenberg uncertainty limit. Radio folk would say they're "lost in the noise." But Werner Heisenberg never hacked computer code. He'd probably be surprised by the track of this very transient Virtual Dave we photographed in our software bubble chamber: ae0m 47 dave *+wd0t Tony/AE0M thought he worked Randy/K5ZD on his QSO #46. He did not. But the DAVE he thought he copied sprang into existence nevertheless. On his next QSO, #47, Tony thought he worked Todd/WD0T. He did not. The DAVE he thought he got from Randy was passed back into the soup from which it came: 40 0226 ae0m 46 mark ca k5zd 102 dave ma -NG- NoMatch Dupe 40 9999 k5zd 102 ed ma nv6o 78 rod ca ^^ 40 0227 ae0m 47 dave ca wd0t 101 dave sd -NG- NoMatch 40 0228 wd0t 101 dave sd k0ej 67 dean tn ^^ REMAINING NAME TRACES For an explanation of the symbols, see the Reader's Guide to SprINT Name Traces at the end of this report.

READER'S GUIDE TO SPRINT NAME TRACES wa1mug 1 john ==w1ua= kz4h 8 jon ===-===w6go. WA1MUG started with the name John. The first station he worked got the name OK, then passed it to W1UA. The name John showed up OK in all three logs. W1UA then worked KZ4H who recorded Jon in his log. Either W1UA mis-sent the name or KZ4H mis-copied or mis-logged the name on his QSO #7. KZ4H then passed Jon along to the next station he worked with his QSO #8. Jon survived until W6GO copied it on his last QSO. It showed up in the logs of all stations in between, except for one station who did not send one in. wb2oeu 1 fred =====-=====-=====wb2rkk-wb2woi= wa2uwa 17 stinky -===-========-?-=========wa2eah-wa2ccf? WB2OEU started with Fred which showed up OK in WB2RKK's log. RKK then worked WB2WOI who did not send in a log. But WOI's next QSO# was found in WA2UWA's log, and UWA recorded Stinky. The error may have occurred anywhere between RKK sending and UWA receiving. UWA then passed Stinky with his QSO #17, and Stinky eventually made it into WA2EAH's enormous log. EAH then worked WA2CCF, who did not send in a log, and the trace was lost. Along the way, the name passed through at least two consecutive stations who did not send in logs. This made manual suturing of the traces necessary. k2kir 1 howie =========wa2spl= w2mta sowie w2mta 20 bill =========w2fr w2fr 30 dill =========wb2drw. K2KIR started with Howie. WA2SPL said he copied and sent Howie, but W2MTA said he copied Sowie. MTA's log also said he found Sowie offensive, so he changed it to Bill before sending it with his QSO #20. W2FR copied Bill OK, but his log said he's always had trouble sending Bill, so he changed it to Dill before passing it on with his #30. k1znd 12 dave *========wa1hco-wa1iqj# wa1pid 73 don ==========================wb2fzo+k2eiu/5 K1ZND worked someone on his QSO #11 who sent him Dave -- or so he thought. The other station didn't think the QSO complete, and so continued by sending Dave on his next QSO without putting ZND in his log. Meanwhile, ZND blissfully passed on the freshly cloned Dave with his #12. Dave made it OK to WA1HCO who passed it to WA1IQJ. But IQJ was cluelessly sending Don to everybody, including the next station he worked, WA1PID. This Don survived until he got to WB2FZO. FZO thought he passed Don to K2EIU/5, but EIU was really working someone else, so Don fell on the floor. ######## SOAPBOX > [Ed/WA2SRQ] Rough conditions on 40.
