[Dx-qsl] DX SUMMIT

[Peter W2IRT]

I agree. I used the site to do quick filter searches on DX stations ("show
me the last 100 spots of VU4 on 17m CW"), refreshing the page every 30
seconds. Now with the new "Fisher-Price" interface, it's just too much of a
bother. I was hoping for something vastly improved but they gave us a huge
step backwards in my opinion. Note that I use the VE7CC software for
real-time spot retrieval and filtering, and my logger(s) for alerting so for
me DX Summit was a research tool only.

I'm not bothering with that., because I can't think of the first suggestion
that would make the new site better. The only suggestion I can think of is
to return to the old site, and I doubt very seriously they would take us up
on that after after all they have done to create a new site. The only thing
I can think of that would make them reconsider would be for their hits to
drop off dramatically. But if what they did works, then it works.
Personally, I don't care for the new site and won't be using it.

This is sorta like the Hank Williams Jr. song I referred to in my other
post. (When something is good, why does it change?) Also in the lyrics were
why Coca-Cola changed their recipe. I remember that very well. The
complaints didn't matter, but when their sales went way down, along came
Classic Coke. 

I believe most of us are commenting here to test the waters to see if we are
the only ones who don't care for "My DX Summit." It appears to me that most
of us prefer the original DX Summit. (Our DX Summit) But I could be wrong,
and this won't be the first time.

 I would suggest HELPFUL observations,
 comments and suggestions be sent to the Summit owners.
  Nothing works perfectly in the first few  days/weeks/months.  I'm quite
sure they would love  to  hear  from you.
