Hi Hank,
This is an exact quote from page NIST 25 of the proposed FY2019 NIST budget:

Do you turn off your phone, email and every other communication method
when playing radio? JTAlert texting is just one of many ways people can
contact you. He didn't need your RRR either. RR or rr73 or 73 does not
make a contact. The exchange of some data is all that is needed. DXCC
does
Not quite true. I was a very early users of FT8, my first experience with any
of the JT modes. Someone said that JTAlert was a must have so I installed it,
not really knowing why.
I was attempting a QSO with a west African station and could tell that I was
being QRMed after the first
I had no idea those LINKS were included in my email posting
about copying IV3PRK using FT8 on 160 last night. My apology
to all.
I ran WSPR thru the night and discovered DP0GVN copied
W7WKR and W8AC way down in Antarctic-land.
Appears conditions were pretty good on 160 last night.

Yes, it is for REAL! nothing remote on this side.
I really enjoy FT8 because all QSO's are real.If your antennas and your radio
hears the DX then the computer decodes it. No way to call a spot or to make an
internet QSO through a chat line.
This morning we got the best opening of the summer,

the NIST radio stations in Hawaii and Ft. Collins, CO. These radio stations
transmit signals that are used to synchronize consumer electronic products
like wall clocks, clock radios, and wristwatches, and may be used in

The 60 kHz transmissions are done by WWVB. No mention of WWVB being
