[DX-CHAT] dx cluster usage

A DX Cluster Code of Ethics: now that has legs Andy 

- Only spot what is generally accepted as DX (i.e. relatively rare or exotic
calls on that band, mode and time)

- Don't spot the exact QSX frequency (it just makes the pileup more
difficult for the DX to handle: UP or DOWN is enough, real DXers will
LISTEN FIRST)

- Don't spot stations that are already very busy (give them a break!)

- Don't spot stations that are already struggling to control their pileup
(ditto)

- Get the call and frequency right, double-check before spotting, and
treble-check after spotting (and correct your own mistakes promptly)

- Use your own call (your IP address is logged automatically)

- Be polite: *never* insult anyone via Dxcluster (remember, it is only a
hobby ... and we know your IP address)

- Don't post pseudo spots begging for QSOs, QSYs, new modes or whatever
(assume the DX is not monitoring the cluster)

- Don't post lame non-spots saying you can't hear someone

- Don't post brag spots - this is not a pissing contest

- Don't try to make, complete or arrange QSOs via DXcluster

- Do post helpful comments e.g. IOTA reference, QSL info etc.

... I'm sure we could think of more ...

Hey, Jerry (guy across town).  You up yet?  Every five minutes 
until Jerry wakes up and they can say Good Morning to each other.

I really hate Verizon web mail sometimes... let's try that one again:
