When I read John's post, I thought he was talking about spotting i.e. *observing* what frequency the last guy to work the DX was on so he could call on exactly the same QRG. I didn't think he meant internet spotting at all. Strange how two people can read one post and get completely different ideas of what he was saying ... :) ----- Julian, G4ILO.
