[DXBase] LOL a possible feature for DXBase*next*

[Art Searle W2NRA]

Now don't get anN0YD, Tom,

But I disagree here too.  It is not up to the DX
to tell us what he is doing.  It is up to us to
find out by LISTENING.

I remember DXpeditions where the DX lied about
where they were listening.  I even remember when I
think it was 1984 Kermadec had just opened and op
Ron Wright ZL1AMO was listening down on 20 CW and
told no one.  That has to be the fastest I worked
a major DXpedition.  Frustrated because I couldn't
hear who he was working in the big mess listening
up, I listened down.

73,
