John, MikUM & Others,

You might like to check out the N3RA (telnet://dx.n3ra.com or =
telnet://65.42.104.225) and W9ZRX (telnet://webcluster.w9zrx.net) nodes. =
 Here are a few facts about N3RA that might be of interest...  (These =
are passed along from W9ZRX, who is the person "in the know" about who's =
connected to what and how. =20

Good DXing!

  MikUM,

  I'm normally connected to K8SMC, but when it is down I use K4JA.

  I've noticed that K8SMC keeps sending me SSB spots even though it =
shows my=20
  filters set for CW only. K4JA filters work fine.

  K8SMC uses a RF connection to his ISP and it periodically gets blasted =
by=20
  lightning and is down for days. But when it is running it is pretty =
reliable.

  After writhing this I'm going to change my primary node to K4JA and =
use=20
  K8SMC when JA is down.
