Wow, I could have used this spotting page last weekend when looking for
W1AW/KH8 from American Samoa!
Will try to work you tomorrow night, Mike, if you will still be running
W1AW/5 from Mississippi from 7 - 9 p.m.

Some of you may have this link already, but I did not have it until a few
minutes ago.
In reference to a question that I posted to the W1AW Mississippi operators
group earlier today, one of the operating team sent me this link for
spotting signals, along with simple instruction on how to use it.
I had ask how to determine where W1AW/1 in Rode Island is transmitting in
order to avoid a pileup colision with his stations.
The link works just like he says, and is speech friendly.
His message follows.

Use this internet link to simply CHECK before getting on the air...it's
SIMPLE to use:

Just type in the callsign for which you're looking (i.e., W1AW will bring up
ALL W1AW spots regardless of /1 or /5)...and then examine where stations are
transmitting. You narrow your search by the drop down menus for band and
mode. And if you want to see just W1AW/1 then actually type in that
callsign. No software is necessary...no equipment is necessary....just a
computer with internet access for a quick check.
