I'd like to get some feedback from those who may have used self-spotting.What means did you use? Tweet? Phone? APRS? APP? Internet?Was it useful? Did it change the dynamic of your operation? Any grea

Hi Rick & gang, There was a good group on EME during the contest. In the past it has simply been trying to find a needle in a haystack which was quite frustrating. This weekend we were able to post w

heh... I believe I may have a chance to score a wee bit higher up the Big Operator chain this time, because I did not burn operating time by fiddling with a cellphone, futzing with APRS, tweetling or

I don't think it will turn into a spotting contest. It's too much fun to have it the other way. I did check the map on KST for locations of E clouds. This did help. I did look at the chatter, but it

The new spotting rules turned out great. It was far less boring having packet during slow periods. (Although I admit I dozed off about a hundred times on Sunday!) I was afraid the spotting network wo

I used normal radio based APRS for awhile and APRS-IS from my phone when my HT died. I had no feedback from anyone that they used it to track me. I made one phone call to a friend that generated 3 co

I tried the cell SMS tweet-to-spot function a few times, but I don't think self-spotting makes much difference for a qrp/portable in a low VHF activity region (EM53). I also tried to find someone on

I operating a fixed station so my use of assistance was mostly on dxmaps.com, watching for general propagation trends. I spotted a few stations when I thought it would be helpful to expose changing c

I never understood the ban on using phone calls to set up QSOs. Now that this door has been open, what is the chance that we might see these tools allowed for HF contests? Hopefully at least for the
