[2m] 144 MHz e M[ost] W[anted] S[quares] Europe

[MMMonVHF]

Dear VHF friends,

As you noticed, the last survey for the
144 MHz M[ost] W[anted] S[quares] in Europe
was evaluated by the German magazines "DUBUS" and
"FUNK-TELEGRAMM" by Joe, DL8HCZ and published on Guy, DL8EBW,
homepage: http://www.dl8ebw.de/MWS-PROJECT/mws-project.html in the
beginning of the year and that we were doing since past 10-15 years...

Since the beginning of the year, the group of Make More Miles on VHF
was in contact with Joe, DL8HCZ, to develop this survey on
a more comfortable way for our users and editors.

So today we start to be online with the always up to date:
        144 MHz  e M[ost] W[anted] S[quares] Europe
at: http://www.MMMonVHF.de/ and please do click:  "eMWS"

You are now able now to upload your MWS-files "ONLINE" without the
need of any emailing or any deadline missings ;-) !
You are able to use the well known VQ-Log "MWS output" tables as
well as simple .txt files. NO NEED OF A SPECIFIC PROGRAM ANYMORE!

Please check the following info and then you may update your
personal informations for the 144 MHz e-MWS online for the

        144 MHz  e M[ost] W[anted] S[quares] Europe

Everybody can send in as many most wanted squares as he wants.
Of course it shall be necessary that the wanted squares have to be
in a reachable area from the senders QTH. We do recommend following
QRB:

  600- 800 km for stations working tropo propagations only
  800-1000 km for stations which wants work WET-SQUARES (eg. JO15)
2000-2300 km for stations working propagations like MS

Example: if you are qrv on 144 MHz tropo you might send a list of
squares in a range of 600-800 km around your QTH, if you qrv also MS/ES
you might send in squares in range of 2300 km. Also all "wet" squares
are possible to activate but shall be within your extended tropo range.
Its your decision if you count only "not worked square", or if you
add the squares pending on confirmation.

The prefered method to send in your entry for the survey will the
output file from VQ-Log (EA6VQs Logbook program) but also a simple
.txt file will do it - here an example of your TEXT-input to the page:


(The filename is free of choice, but the extension has to be 'txt'):

All participants of the 2007 144 MHz MWS DUBUS survey will be loaded
meantime to the ONLINE eMWS survey. DUBUS did NOT spread out "your"
results from the 2007 survey as past years and so any other upcomming
survey-copies are based on our old survey results also if the time
stamp says current dates...  ;-)

As well as in the past years, Joe, DL8HCZ / CT1HZE will get time to
time current results to publish it in the DUBUS/FUNKTELEGRAMM. As well
we will place these infos in other media, as long they will share
our copyright situation.


Many thanks in advance for using our new tool at  http://www.MMMonVHF.de
Maybe you ll find time to have a look about your details in our
VHF-DATABASE because end of may we will spread out the new issue of the
MS-DATABASE (CALL3.txt) from here. We are pleased to inform you
(MMMonVHF-Newsletter)...
