Can anyone give me a clue on the task settings to use in SeeYou to make it give me the same speed and distance scores that WinScore gives for USA Regional contests? I've tried everything but I cannot get SeeYou and WinScore to agree on the distance. And I doubt the speed will match until the...

I have a hand held ICOM IC-A3E with a throughly dead battery pack. In the past I've revived similar packs (e.g. on an HP-25 calculator) by cracking into the plastic shell of the pack and replacing the cells, which are usually AA size NiCds. Doing this is normally vastly less expensive than...

After waiting a year or so for the folks at Centrair to remove their collective heads for their a$$es (I'm not bitter), we've decided to sell the first of our 101As at a discount and export it to a country that can actually fly it. I'd appreciate pointers to on-line forums and/or a European...
