[net.ham-radio] DX info question

rjr@mgweed.UUCP (Bob Roehrig) (09/11/85)

A letter from Lou, K2ANC, has prompted me to post this note regarding
DX contacts.

Outside of the occasional ARRL dx bulletins that I post, there has been
little about DX contacts on the net. From other comments I receive,
I would say there is pretty good interest in DXing. So the question is
should I or someone collect dx station info to be summarized and posted
to the net (weekly)? Or should active dxers each post their own interesting
contacts? Lets's hear some ideas/opinions.

Several of us I'm sure get various DX newsletters and exchange info  via
mail.   If  you,  Bob,  are  willing  to  pick up and post various items
(DXpeditions, stations heard -- freq/time, etc) I for one  would  be  an
avid reader.

I'd like to see more DX information.  Probably one posting every
week or so would be best, with contributions (in ready-to-be-posted form)
by mail to the poster.  Items could include requests for QSL
information (e.g., I currently need OE7RKH/YK's home address)
as well as news on current and future activity.

Thanks for volunteering (?), Bob, and thanks also for
your renewed efforts to post the DX bulletins.
