I’m not sure why we need another callbook page, but it looks nice.

As far as QRZ.COM, I don’t understand the comment about “dumbing down”.

The QRZ.COM owner is running a business, and that usually entails having a 
revenue stream.  A subscription the old Flying Horse callbooks (USA and DX) 
used to cost about $15.00 each, 4 times a year if you kept up to date.  That 
works out to $120.00 a year, for data as much as 3 months old.   A QRZ.COM 
subscription, with info updated daily (not every 90 days), costs $29.95. 
Seems like a bargain to this old dude.

Petr,

     CONGRATULATIONS! Your new web page is WONDERFUL! Thank you for all your 
hard work and I assure you I will be a regular user.

     I cannot stand QRZ.COM for many reasons; they've contributed to the 
"dumbing down" so much of our hobby. Their recent forced registration, I am 
sure, is only a precursor to charging for their lookup service.

     I wish you a long and successful life at www.hamqth.com!
