9:22 PM Subject: RE: [DX-CHAT] will this help? Pirating is not very extensive, but it is a problem for DXpeditions, because those unfortunate DXers who work a pirate often blame the DXpedition for sloppy work. The K7C DXpedition is a good case in point: Quite a few DXers told stories that we

Will this help? If a DXpedition station gave out serial numbers, incrementing for each QSO (like some contests ), would that retard pirates? A pirate could give out serial numbers, too, but could he ever get so close in sequence to the real DX to make confusion? Also, would serial numbers on

Hi, This is N5PHT, Gary, writing from North Texas. I once before suggested this idea and it really didn't catch on - maybe I did not try it long enough and would really like to try again if there is some support. The DX spots could be made in a uniform way that would really give helpful info in

You can just put so much on a line. Space now already limits the information. But, whatever. Gone are the days when one worked DX by the seat of his pants. No spots, no DX editors, etc. 73 de John N6JM Gary Stone wrote: Hi, Hi, This is N5PHT, Gary, writing from North Texas. I once

Hi Tim - There is something oddly backwards. I've invested years in assembling my station, antennas and in developing my listening and operating techniques. If I can hear the DX, I can usually work it in far less time than it would take to format a spot let alone a multi-field spot. Frequency and
