Re: [DX-CHAT] county hunters net
I live in WisconsinI think 80% of the county names in WI are impossible WITHOUT phonetics :)) My guess Tom? Poor operators.

Re: [DX-CHAT] Spotting Etiquette
Yes Barry! Kinda along the same lines are people that use the comments field to "talk" to the DX station. On 6/7/2012 7:01 PM, Barry wrote: Bingo! Even better is a spot asking a DXped to QSY to another band/mode. We all know they monitor the Cluster and respond immediately to such requests, NOT.

I really don't understand why some folks want to tell us that they can't hear the DX where they are. I thought the purpose of DX SPOTTING was to tell us where (and by whom) the DX IS being heard. Imagine the traffic if everyone who didn't hear the DX reported it. I have my program set to tell me when the DX is being heard in NA and it's darn annoying to get an alarm and highlight from someone in BC (I use BC as an example not to offend other NA non-spotters) telling us he also can't hear the DX.

Re: [DX-CHAT] Republic of Wadiya - New Country?
I wonder if it would be possible to operate from the Wadiya Sandland Theme Park and National Museum of Sand?

[DX-CHAT] Clublog/Leaderboiard run AMOK??
SB DX @ WW< KB8NW $OPDX.1033 Ohio/Penn DX Bulletin No. 1033 The Ohio/Penn DX PacketCluster DX Bulletin No. 1033 BID: $OPDX.1033 October 24, 2011 Editor Tedd Mirgliotta, KB8NW Provided by BARF80.ORG (Cleveland, Ohio) * LEADERBOARD SCORING AT T32C: Michael/G7VJR and Marios/5B4WN from the "Club Log" web page<http://www.clublog.org> report the following: "During the T32C expedition, a large number of stations have succeeded in working the maximum number of slots possible, or share the same number of slots as a large number of other stations. Using the 'first past the post' scoring system, those who worked these slots first are ranked highest. Duplicates count negatively. This scoring system has been manipulated by a small number of stations operating illegally. They have determined that by using someone else's callsign and working T32C, they can create duplicates and force that callsign down the leaderboard. Ranking changes -- In response to this problem, the scoring system for the T32C is changing to a ranking that does not penalize duplicate QSOs. This removes the loophole that is being exploited. This change will be made live on 19th October, with the agreement of the T32C expedition team, to improve the fairness of the scoring." * I really thing this whole ClubLog/leaderboard thing has gotten out of hand. People are actually CHEATING to improve their scores....amazing.
