exchanges as possible during the operating period. Accomplishing this requires sustained
focus anytime we are sitting at the operator's position. Effective Focus is mental, neurological
and physiological forces, all coming together, effecting "a happening"; in this case, the initiation
and proper completion of as radiosport contest exchange.
Focus is something that happens (noun) as well as something we do (verb). As a neurofeedback therapist, my work is Alll about Focus and Feedback. Research findings to be released (in 2022)
will demonstrate the correlation between the Neurological and Physiological aspects of the Focus Experience. This correlation is hardly a new idea in the world of Amateur Radio; in the early 1950's Katashi Nose' (KH6IJ) conducted motion studies at the University of Hawaii, bringing us some surprising conclusions on how to go about improving radiosport operator performance.

10 years ago, out of curiosity, I wore an old Neurosky Mindset headset to monitor E-E-G activity
at location FP1 (Left Frontal), while running the NAQP Cw contest. If you can copy Morse code, watch those videos and notice the brainwave frequencies which activate at different periods of the operating period.

- [S&P'ing] - WQ6X monitoring EEG during Searching & Pouncing
The above exercises (from which the videos were made) taught me indirectly the importance
of engaging proper Focus when in the midst of a busy radiosport contest, such as the NAQP
Cw GiG - a 12-hour North American frenzy.

I wrote more about this recently regarding Brain and Body. ([CLICK HERE] to read that.)
What about YOU?
HoW does FOCUS figure into YOUR radiosport activities?
