[ADXA] On line log system for the VP8 is sluggish

[J. Setcer]

I heard N5ZM work VP8PJ @ 7 AM this morning on 40 CW. I could not even hear
them. But I sure did hear Earl!

I thought I worked them on 14.185 this afternoon, but it was Weak copy. I
wasn't sure If I was in their log or not. So I broke my rule about never
Duping,
I worked him  again when I could hear him clearly. He didn't say anything
about "we already worked on this band", so Maybe i made the right decision.

According to my tag-team DXing buddy WB5FLA, The deal with not uploading
logs is the weather will not allow them to get from their camp to the boat.
Evidently they only have internet access on the boat.
Which, is pretty much the same thing San already said.

Anyway, i'm trying my dangdest with what what I have to work with to work
them a few times on a few bands

-QJ
p.s. I CANT leave this without ONE brag.
I had been listening for the guy for a while to get loud enough for a sure
contact. When my turn came he said " N5QJ. WOW!  Nice signal'. It was the
first "nice signal" I heard all afternoon. I'll take that.
