Is it really N3DG who is spamming the DXClusters about EQSL or is his call being spoofed?

Tim,

Based on the postings in the last few months, it doesn't appear likely that you'll hear anything from the moderators G4VXE TIM KIRBY , N5UP Dave Morris , W3ZJ Rich Drake or anyone at eQSL who might know something.

The forum appears to have gone into semi-dormant status with a half-dozen or so of us looking in from time to time, but no involvement or assistance from anyone representing eQSL that I can discern.

But...maybe I'm wrong. Hello out there...

Good luck,

Tom

Send an email via the "Help!" link and you will get administrator attention.

Heh. This is titled as a "Support" forum sponsored by eQSL, with 3 eQSL moderator names attached. On this type of forum support can generally come from someone other than just other members, particularly when it is a question, such as this, that ONLY the eQSL folks would be able to respond to with some credibility.

No such luck here, that I have seen. The lack of moderator interaction and support in part accounts for the dismal level of activity/posting that you see in the thread/reply counts.

It would probably make more sense to have a Yahoo group forum. Does one exist for eQSL?

Yes Tom,
It is called OnLineQSL. Not very active - the posts take a long time to appear. The moderator is very busy with his regular job as well as eQSL and I think he approves every post before the post appears in the group. The people (other than moderators) that have more experience with eQSL, do try to help in this forum as best they can. I would sure like to see examples of the spamming before I make statements and conjectures.

It's interesting to click on each of the moderator's links to see the posting information.

G4VXE is long gone - over a year since any activity here.
N5UP has made one post in May but that is the only post in 6 months
W3ZJ appears to visit but otherwise is inactive too - last post 17 months ago.

Thanks Graham!
We just try to help where we can, when I'm stuck for an answer I refer the Ham to the 'Help!' link. eQSL is such a great service and I'm sure there are other hams out there who are knowledged enough to help out also. I understand that the admin folks have other commitments, but it would be nice to hear from them once in a while on these forums.
73 and keep on Hamming!
