[DX-CHAT] Pls spread the word
Please help spread the word: Due to a recent flood of bogus subscribers (and I mean almost 100 per day between the 2 reflectors), Urb has instituted (finally :-) ) a 2 step subscription program Step 1 requires you to input your e-mail address (the one you'll be allowed to receive and post) with Step 2 will be receipt of an e-mail (at the subscribed address) that requires you to verify that you did indeed subscribe, by clicking on a URL link Once that is done, you'll get a welcome message and the rest is automatic I realize that this is a tad more than what was needed in the past, but it was taking more and more time to delete the bogus addresses If, in a pinch, you need assistance, I am always available to help Have a good DX day and remember...Just because BS7H is coming on the air doesn't mean we have to act like goofs AND remember this..if you hear me trying to work them, keep it down to a dull roar until I make my contact ;-) 73 Steve KF2TI DXR Aministration Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org

[DX-CHAT] 60 meters DX web page
While I am proud to be the first USA ham to make a DX contact on the then-new 60meter band, I have to remind USA hams that this band was approved for USA use with the assertion that it was needed for emergency communications, mostly with USA to Carrib stations during hurricanes. It is likely that QST chose not to print my DX achievement so as not to highlight the DX dimension of the new 60m band. (Altho that news did go on the ARRL web site.) I was also one of the dozen or so hams with an experimental license to do the preliminary ops on this band when it was at the testing stage. Nice band if a sliver. It is ironic that this band has seen very little use of its first intended purpose. Especially is it sad that the Hurricane Watch Net apparently has not availed itself of this ideal frequency to continute contact to the Carrib. when 20m closes for the nights. 73 Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ The average US Credit Score is 675.
