Our QSO Map leaves all the DX Spotting web sites in the dust! For a short time available to anyone, see what Silver and Gold members will have exclusively after May 1.

Ok Allen, I tried the link above but I don't speak Spanish. Was it supposed to show me how the QSO Map gets updated? The other DX clusters I've seen use manual input by Hams listening and then updating the DX page. Some loggers and radio control programs automaticaly ftp your QSO info to the DX cluster. Do you know how the QSO Map does it? If I or the person I'm in QSO with don't enter the data, how does the QSO map know who is talking to who?
Thanks and 73!

hi Andy i think it comes from dx clusrer so someone has to post the info into a cluster like oh2aq or www.dxwatch.com thats the one i use but there r many clusters on packet es other links. if u scrolled down u would see the screen used for the Kura island with their set up they auto sent the info so when u worked them it came up on the map esalso on a side panel its the best ive seen hi hi

Thanks Allen, that's what I thought. Now only if I had a good enough setup to work a VK, that would be cool!

I've got a Yeasu FT847 (100w) w/FC20 Tuner into a G5RVjr inverted V inside my attic. Elevation here is about 480 feet above sea level in Connecticut on the east coast. Haven't done CW in about 30 years, so would be real rusty. But maybe one of these days I'll get up real early and see what I can do.
73 and good luck Allen!
