Using
VQSpot to send DX-Spots automatically:
Guidance notes:
- VQSpot
is not intended to be used when you are running a pileup, otherwise
you will flood the DX-Cluster with useless spots. Use it mainly
when you are working DX in search and pounce mode.
- VQSpot
is intended to be used for reporting QSO in the VHF and up bands,
where most of the QSO reported are DX. So far it works for the HF bands
but this could change as soon as I detect an improper use of the system.
- The
only responsible of the DX-Spots sent is YOU, so make sure
you make an appropriate use of the program.
Some
additional information:
-
VQSpot does not send spots directly to the DX-Cluster, but making use
of an intermediate page hosted at http://www.dxmaps.com.
This means:
- I can centrally restrict the use of the
system (or even definitively suspend it) when there is an improper use
of it.
- I
WILL ban any user that sends spots with inappropriate or wrong information.
- All sent spots are in a log, that I can analyze
at any time and that it's publicly available upon request.
- If after reading all the above you still think that
VQSpot is evil and that it will "collapse the DX-Cluster" or
so, please be so kind not to annoy me with your irrational fears....
I'm really fed up of having to justify every single action I take
or program I make, so don't waste your time E-Mailing
me.
