Hi Guy, <<< Thanks for the tip about Satoshi's postings on the Japanese DX Facebook group! That sounds quite interesting, but I'll have to rejoin Facebook first. A couple years ago I was feeling too overloaded by Facebook and put my membership on hold. I'll let you know if I get back on board! >>> That's completely understandable, Guy. At first I was also kind of skeptical that Facebook would become a forum for serious DX discussion, but it now seems to be one of the most popular and up-to-date methods to communicate with DXers around the world. A lot of UnID MP3 clips and real-time DXing alerts are passed around on Facebook every day. Among several of the younger Japanese DXers, it is the primary method of hobby-related communication. Gary
