In relation to my previous post, I think if ARRL would periodically release
an "official" user list, it would provide incentive for cluster users to
chase dx that choose to qsl via LotW.
Yes, I hear the non-cluster types tearing me down for "not finding them
the old fashioned way". I certainly continue to get myself up at 4am with
a cup of coffee to tune thru the bands looking to be the one who spots
the dx first - after I work them. But my time has become more valuable
in my middle years, and I embrace spotting, rig control, LotW. The more
data presented to me from my monitor, the better.
I don't get up at 4am as much as I did when I was an 18 yr old Novice, and
my rig no longer keeps my coffee warm, but the excitement is still there,
and I guess that's what it's all about.
