Hi Brandon,
First off, thanks for volunteering to take on the job. Indeed,
Phil has been doing a fabulous job in pulling the info together to
create a column.
In my case, being a long way from the coast I tend to hear a lot of the
more common TP/DU stations repeatedly, and others much more
infrequently. That information might be of interest for comparing
reception on a daily basis, but likely isn't that valuable in the
column. When I do hear something out of the ordinary I would expect
I should be able to send it to you directly. Job and family
commitments mean I don't report every day, so some logs never show up on
the forum, but might make the column. The last couple of weeks has
been a good example of that, as I've had a few good New Zealand catches,
but not on days I was able to report.

Heys folks. As you my or may not know, I volunteered to take on DXWW-W from
Phil who has been doing a fantastic care taker job for a few years. Coming over
from the DXWW-E side, it is amazing the work Phil has been doing to glean your
logs from your posts in the forum and whipping them up into format for the
column. I have been used to Mark's meticulously formatted reports, and other
folks specifically submitting logs for the column.
You West Coast guys are so laid back!
Before I even formally ask, I would like to get feedback from you TA DX'ers.
Phil has been gleaning your posts for logs you have posted in your own ways,
some with details, some without besides good/poor/fair, some without times or
with dates to be pulled from the time of your post. Hardly any seem to be
submitted to Phil specifically for DXWW-W.
Since I am editing DXWW East/West and TBDX into a single DXWW column, is there
any way to herd you West Coast cats? Easy stuff like semi consistent date and
time formats, details beyond good/fair/poor. In good faith, I cannot add posts
with simply good/fair/poor or especially carrier posts. I understand you may be
posting daily captures, but need details for others not so fortunate.
Officially cc:ing [email protected] for you semi properly formatted posts you
want included in the bulletin would make my life so much easier. ;)
Is this stuff do-able or have I bitten off way more than I can chew? Opening up
the discussion :)
73,
Brandon
