I have a chat program on my site that is unused. Feel free to use it.
There is a 144 and up room along with others. Customized spots are
right on the page too. There is email verification where a key will be
sent to you when you register.

Regarding rule 7... other than email, which internet resources are most
likely best to support scheduling during the 2m sprint? What are the most
common sites used to facilitate real-time scheduling? What's best for VHF?
There are obviously DX clusters
http://www.dxwatch.com/
http://www.dxsummit.fi/DxSpots.aspx
but those are mostly for spotting and mostly HF. There are digital or
HSCW, EME & MS chat & sked pages
http://www.pingjockey.net/cgi-bin/pingtalk
http://www.pingjockey.net/cgi-bin/pingSKED
but those seem very compartmentalized or don't allow for SSB/CW terrestrial
discussions.
So what do or will you use tonight, if you choose to use anything at all?
I've seen:
ON4KST (requires registration email)
http://www.on4kst.org/chat/login.php?band=2
and
DXworld
http://dxworld.com/vhfsked.html
http://dxworld.com/144prop.html
http://dxworld.com/vhfqso.html
Other suggestions?
Seems like if most folks are not looking at the same resource, rule 7 will
be mainly fallback to one on one emails and phone calls, which is fine, but
it would be nice to have us all in one place to get the best bang for our
buck.
I'm going to attempt to activate the station for a few hours tonight and
would like to maximize my QSOs while operating.

FYI: Rule 7.0 has changed due to request by many at the SE VHF conference.
7. Use of telephone, packet or internet methods to schedule contacts
during the contest is acceptable.
