[Dxbase] FW: DXBase Suggestion

Sat May 7 12:23:58 EDT 2011

I think it was a great idea and I also think your medication needs to be adjusted.. 
You sir are kind of ornery today :) 
beside this was more of a spotting thing , the program already lets us qsy to different bands and modes.. 
After all its 2011 ? 
LOVE

And what's wrong with changing bands and using the tuning knob on your 
radio? 
The next thing you're gonna want is a radio that will make the QSO for you, 
fill out the QSL and employ a robot to take it to the mail box.

Greg, Dave is right. We know that. I'm looking for "on the fly" as Dave 
says. 17 meters is open for example. I want to chase some band countries. 
I don't want to go to the trouble of sending the information to the cluster 
because minutes later I might see activity on 12 and want to look there 
too. 
Neal?
