DXMAPS.COM needs your support
Become a supporter user !

Dear user of DXMAPS.COM,

I hope that you are enjoying some of the many features provided by DXMAPS.COM:

• Propagation maps
• DX database search
• Propagation warnings by E-Mail
• Callbook and locator database
• HF and VHF DX news & calendar
• DX atlas
• Online EME calculator
• VHF&up information
• ....

Keeping this service up and providing these facilities at a decent speed in the next months requires hiring two dedicated servers and a huge internet bandwidth, what together with the required licenses, domain registration and SSL certificates cost me US $5,021 per year, what is certainly more than I can personally afford. If you wonder why a so expensive servers are required, here you have a few data from 2015:

• Total number of queries to the database: 1,576,814,037
• Total traffic: 8.29 TB (Terabytes)
• Total number of propagation warnings E-Mails sent: 420,328
• Pages served per second: Up to 45 pages/second during the summer months.
• Database queries per second: Up to 160 queries/second.
• Data transfer per second: Up to 13.18 Megabytes/second
• Maximum number of propagation warnings E-Mails per day: 3,167

If you really like DXMAPS.COM and want it to continue being available in the next months I would appreciate some kind of donation.

Any donation, even as little as US $10, will help, but please also consider becoming an official "supporter user" for as little as US $23 or 20€.

When you donate at least  US $23 or 20€ you will get the status of DXMAPS.COM "supporter user" and in return you will get the following privileges for a period of one year:

• Your callsign will appear remarked on a yellow background on the maps
• Your callsign will have priority and will be shown on the maps on top of other stations in your own grid square. If there are other supporter users in your square then the priority will be shared and the report shown will be the latest at the time the map is generated.
• Unlimited number of queries to the DX database
• Unlimited number of queries to the Callbook and locator database
• Unlimited number of E-Mails with propagation warnings
• Unlimited number of DX spots sent
• Unlimited number of queries to the HF and VHF calendar
• Unlimited use of the DX Atlas and the EME calculator
• Furthermore, you will be making possible the implementation of new features in the future.

Thank you for your great engagement Gabriel!
Would be nice to have also the VQLog online 1 day. So it would be easy for stations to look about done QSO`s online with a Link on it on our Websites!
