Here's an Idea.. I run the Monthly Polls for the NAQCC QRP Group, and we
use http://pollcode.com/
It is Free to use.. I can set one up quickly using the 'older data' that
is listed..(ie: DN58 has been activated numerous times over the past few
years..so it should no longer be 'Near the Top' of the list ?)  Many
other Rare Ones have been activated by NJ0W, N5QE, now KB5HMU, etc.  I
can even 'compile it so to speak'.. ie: First Poll would be CN Grids and
so on..let it run for a week or so..and everyone can see the 'Total
Results Anytime' !
Just a thought.. though I am sure FN guys will need CN98 more than DN
guys will..so may not be 'really accurate' !  73

You could even extend it by having the user who enters the grid, enter their own grid so you could have "most wanted grids" based on other grids, or based on regions.

I just don't have the finances it requires for some of them. I was thinking about making a run out to DL79 as Marshall found a real good spot to operate from out there but don't know how needed anymore. I also have found a real good spot, Seminole Canyon Park in DL99 but again and in Van Horn TX DM71 but again if its not all that rare ... sorta pointless. -- Mike Urich KA5CVH http://ka5cvh.com "Washington - Read the constitution ... not my emai
