[Great-River-DX] packet and DX Cluster info

Thu May 1 22:08:50 EDT 2008

The W9AWE node has been on line with W9ZRX all week.  Don't know why it
isn't showing up.  

Wait a minute...... Look for NA9Q and see if that call shows up.

I was on W9ZRX earlier today. I did see K4VX on it eqrlier this week, can't
remember which day. I have seen K0CA logged onto W9ZRX in the past as well.
I did not see NA9Q logged onto W9ZRX this week though, which makes me wonder
if the W9AWE node is getting feeds form W9ZRX or not right now.
