I know you are getting tired of this, but one thing I left out of the
TIny-Web-Page (TWP) examples are of course:
1) DX SPOTS. Both radios will capture and display DX SPOTS when tuned
to a DX cluster frequency
2) APRS Stations. And of course, every APRS station on the air is
displayed as a 5 window "tiny-web-page"...
So I just thought of another QUERY-Response. If you "Query DX" then what
you get back on the APRS channel is a "TWP" showing you the nearest DX
CLuster, its Frequency, and its direction and distance from you.
Right now I sure could use this information. I wanted to tune in a DX
spot to capture an example for this Email, but I have no clue what
frequency they are on. Sure would have been nice to do a QDOS DX and have
the answer back in a few seconds... :-(
Does anyone know where we can get a list of the LAT/LONG and FREQ of every
DX cluster???

P.S. I only cross posted this to the AMSAT-BB because of the SATELLITE
Tracking and SATELLITE SCHEDULE which were the original idea behind these
"TWP's". The fact that they are forced to all users shows how great a
resource these are for all satellite operators...
>From now on, I will try to contain my enthusiasm :-)
and keep it over on the APRS sig as this concept further develops...
