Dave,
Heres my input to your recent posting to the reflector:
1. I have no need for mouse support on NA. In fact I'm now trying to come
up with more com port availability WITHOUT considering a mouse in the
system. I don't see any need to move windows around the screen either.
2. The band map I find useful in contests where there are a lot of
multipliers to keep up with like the CQWW. I often use the band map to
see which mults I need in a particular area of the world that I find has
propagation to it, and then go looking for some of those mults calling cq
or even calling cq myself. I recently bagged a CP because I heard lots
of LU's calling and some ZP's. The band map told me I needed the CP.
Also picked up an EL in CQWW because I knew I need one and heard a TU
calling.
For 100w station with a modest tri-bander and wire, a mult can be worth
10 minutes, or more, of cqing or S&P at some points in a contest.
3. The EDIT COMMENTS I have never used. I keep notes on paper in all
contest for quick reference while the f1 button is pushed.
Dave, this kind of support from you makes buying/upgrading NA an easy
choice next time for me, thanks,
Jim KN4QV
