Some software even does this for the fixed stations. Type in
callsign, beam starts to swing. I'd be interested to know how many
stations do that, if any -- but they're not going to tell us.
We're just lowly rovers, not allowed to use such things. Here to do
their bidding and make them points. As long as we don't grid-circle
or pack-rove (to try to maximize OUR score), or only captively work
one of them (to maximize one of THEIR scores, but only ONE of them),
they're all happy.
We "serve" up grid squares at their pleasure. Didn't you
know? :-) :-) :-)
