Hey guys. I'de like to introduce you to a project we have been working on
for the past couple of months. When you get time, please check out
www.eham.net . This is the main reason the contesting.com site has been
lame lately. Sorry about that! We hope to bring some new technology to
the contesting.com site in the near future. So as they say on your
favorite net... "stand by!".

Amateur Radio finally has its community site in eHam.net. On September
1, 1999, eHam.net opened its doors at http://www.eHam.net. eHam.net can
best be described as a community of ham radio operators from all over the
world. These ham radio operators share ideas through chat, contribute
news articles, buy & sell, take practice exams, get propagation
information, DX spotting, and a variety of other applications designed for
hams.
eHam.net Features (version 1.0)
1) Callbook - More than just the FCC data, it also includes interesting
personal notes submitted by each person.
2) DX Spots - Spots from around the world with one click access to QSL
manager and callbook info.
3) Classifieds - Buy and sell your ham gear here (it's free!)
4) Ham News - Latest ham radio news with an opportunity to post your
comments on each story.
5) Chat - Chat with hams around the world. Hold club meetings. Meet
people here for on air schedules.
6) Ham Exams - Exams automatically generated from the FCC test pool. Take
a test and see your graded answers immediately.
7) QSL Managers - Find the fastest way to get the cards you need.
8) Propagation - Why wait for WWV when you can get up to the minute data
from NOAA.
9) Survey - Answer the question of the day.
10) Speak Out - A lively editorial forum for comment on ham radio topics.
11) eHam Detective - Search ALL ham radio mailing list archives on the
web. Not just contesting.com.
12) Ham Spotlight - Each view of the home page includes a profile of
someone from the ham radio world. Every time the home page is refreshed,
the spotlight changes.
13) Links - On every page of the site you can type in a keyword to search.
The site has over 2500 different ham radio links already. By far the
biggest and best colletion of ham links on the Internet. We also have a
rating system for each link entered. The eHam.net community can rate any
link from 1 to 5 stars!
14) Friends Remembered - A place to remember SK friends. It occured to us
that a callsign listing in the pages of QST magazine just wasn't enough.
15) Product Reviews - Review any ham product you own or come here to read
reviews about products you are considering buying. I know a couple of
companies that will hate us for putting this one up!
73 & thanks for your time & consideration.
Bill Fisher, W4AN
