Hi Lanny, I've been using Hamalert and it has been paying off. After figuring out I can set it for DXCC entries sent location and DXCC entries received. Sometimes if im home I will set the DXCC received to my Callsign if im hunting a new one and monitor their frequency. That way if I have to leave the shack but still around the house I'll get an alert when I actually hear them. Also, having ANYDesk running I can work a few remotely if I have to leave the house. I have my home pc ANYdesk setup to only respond to my ANYdesk number on my phone.
This morning I had it setup and after the first alert I was in the shack and worked them within a few calls. Im sure it may not always be that quick but nice when a plan works out.
