| I always enjoy with Rufz3.1, every days, when homeworks let me enough free time, I do my exercises. Perhaps my scores is hard to take it over hi...
Dear Matt, I have two questions asking to you: first is if RUFZ3.1 does run under Windows 98. Im upgrading my computer support and in a week or two Ill get a newer and speder Pentium. Ill be sad if RUFZ cant works there.
Second question is just a curiousity, I wornder if you are working for a new version of that sotware or other similar... I geve all who read me, my best 73 and 88 for yls. |
| Gabriel IZ4APU@IK4ICZ |
| [DL4MM]: No Problem, RUFZ 3.1 is running under Windows 98, but for reliable work RUFZ must be executed in pure WIN98-MS-DOS-Mode, not in the DOS-Box. |

| I have the pleasure to test the RUFZ program and I can say congratulation. I like it very much. I like CW and QRP. Now the propagation on 10 m is not so good, so I choise RUFZ. Hoply in the near future with better results, I send here my last top result. |

Hope to be back with new top score soon. |

| I have also some comments on the programme. I whish there were more stations from EU one could listen. After all they are the most active in real contests. So far I have not heard any SP, LZ, LY, ON, YU, SM, S5. Now every time I hear SP in the beging of the call I am sure it is HP, hi! It would be more fun if the calls were the calls which are really active in the contest + some more special calls. Now I dont know most of the calls, but after some weeks of training I am sure I will start guessing the calls anyway. At least I would suggest more normal callsigns. After all one memorize the callsigns so it is the best to memorize the callsigns one would expect in the real contest. So the program will also make you fit for the real thing, not only focus on QRQ CW. I would suggest less HP and more SP, less 4K and more VK, less 5N and more SN. Or maybe the random routine is not working properly. Seams like 5W, A22, A35, 5N, 5R, 4K are all very active!
[DL4MM]: Yes, I think there are really not too much EU calls inside, and especially the mentioned number 4K and HP-calls should be reduced compared to VK and SP-calls. I believe there are also a lot of very old and sometimes no longer existing calls. Well known new calls should be added. It is very difficult to get a very balanced call-database, opinions are very different, what kind of calls should be inside. And of course a frequent change of call-database would not be advantageous. But I think, now after a quite long period of same calls it could be time to modernize call-file. Im thinking about how to do this and make new scores comparable to the existing ones. Please stay tuned ...
At least I managed to listen LA7MFA, hi, and I made a mistake in the number (such a shame!).
[DL4MM]: Hi .. this makes RUFZ so exciting ...
After all nice program, but I whish it could be easier to correct the call while listening, keybord is almost shut off during sending of the call. Using a DEL key is a nightmare.
[DL4MM]: Im not sure if you are using latest RUFZ-version 3.1. With this version RUFZ shows typed characters while CW-output. Additional you can change over between Insert and Overwrite-mode, and you can use both DEL and BACK-key. |

After a short break I played again a bit with RUFZ - well, funny, this run seemed like the others to me "not enough to beat my own highscore", but when I finally looked at the result - hey! I made it :)
RUFZ is full of surprises - a genius program!! |

| RUFZ is exactly like a good video game where the enemy ships come at you faster and faster and the tension makes you want to jump out the window.
I didnt like it at first because I didnt realize what I was dealing with, but now Im addicted.
I really like the ease of use and the scorekeeping provides incentive to
keep coming back. The TopList on the web is a great incentive too. |

| Hi to all of RUFZ folks. Like you can see I was off for a long long time, and now somehow I managed to get a computer, and to give a call to you. Im very soory for not participating in HST99. I saw in results many, many nice and very high results, so congrats to all especialy to RV9CPV and RX9CFO and offcourse to all golden RUFZers from italy.
I hope next time I will be able to participate and make the competition more interesting than it was, altought it was full of new records. I am still not ready to make new nice scores but soon I hope to be again in the old, and maybe better shape. so thats about it for this time. |
| Ones again 73 to all of you and cu soon after long long time - 4N7RGH |

| Thank you for such a great program. This is my 40th year as a Ham. I started using CW in the Military in 1956 but we usually operated at about 18 wpm. I became very active again in the last 2 years and I am determined to get my Extra Class this year! That means getting back up to 20 wpm.
I try to get on the air as much as possible using CW......but many operators just send the minimum number of characters to confirm the contact and my speed has been hanging around 15 wpm for about 3 months now.
I have only used your RUFZ program for about 2 days and 3 sessions and can really feel the difference. I am back to typing characters 2 or 3 after they are sent and this really helps. I didnt realize that I was concentrating too hard on copying each character as soon as sent and missing the first part of the next one! |
| Thanks again.....73/K5VUU/George |

| Here is my personal score. I used RUFZ only 8 times and I was surprised about my speed in listening callsings. I hope to make more speed in using this nice program. Mni tnx to the authors. We will use this program in the Amateur Radio Club of Ennepetal, DOK O27, to build speed for lis-tests. |
