Back in 1967, when I was 17, I used to hang out in Greenwich Village on
Friday and Saturday nights.  There were many stores, including many music
stores.  One night, while I was walking down Bleeker Street, I heard music
coming from one storefront and it went like this...

"Oh dear Miss Morse.  I love you.  Yes I do, really do.  Dit dit dah dit.
Dit dit dah.  Dah dit dah....".  Well, you get the rest.  The really
sang the 'words' dit and dah.  The group was Pearls Before Swine and the
song was Miss Morse.

And now you know the rest of the story.

       RXCLUS 5.0 - CLUSTER INFORMATIONS RECEIVE PROGRAM


The french versions of this program have been developed for nearly 2 years
and were uploaded about every 6 monthes to the french speaking area's BBS's.

For the first time, the version 5.0 includes a multilanguage support, so
this version is uploaded @EU to see if there is interest for such a
program in a wider area.

As an introduction, here is the beginning of the user documentation :


  1.0. PURPOSE

         This  program   RXCLUS  is   used  to   receive  informations
  transmitted on  the PacketCluster system without having to establish
  a connection  to a  cluster node.  It identifies  the frames sent to
  cluster users,  and also  those exchanged  between two cluster nodes
  with a  special protocol. This possibility is especially interesting
  during  the   night  time  as  it  allows  you  to  receive  cluster
  informations with  no connection even if no user is connected on the
  local cluster node !

         DX, WWV  and ANN  informations are  recognised among  all the
  frames heard  on the monitored frequency and are the only ones to be
  displayed. Of  course, each information is displayed only once, even
  if it  is repeated many times on the frequency because several users
  are connected.  So you  get the  same result  as  if  you  would  be
  connected to  the cluster, but without additional traffic on the air
  and with  no link  failures problems.  It is  not a  problem if  the
  monitored frequency  is shared  with other packet services (Mailbox,
  and so on).

         There is  of course a limitation: if you are not connected to
  the cluster,  you cannot send informations requests ! But RXCLUS can
  attenuate strongly  this problem:  DX et  WWV  informations  can  be
  stored in  databases on disk and you can recall them using different
  search criterias. Furthermore, a world countries database allows the
  program to  give many informations and make some calculations like a
  cluster node:  prefix allocation,  WAZ and  ITU zones  of a country,
  azimut and distance, local time.


  1.1. RECENT IMPROVEMENTS :

  V4.0 :  new search criteria in the DX database: in the comment field
  and by  logger, choice of the bands you wish to receive the DX spots
  on, support  added for  23 cm spots, more versatile structure of the
  configuration file, screen saver.

  V5.0 :  multilanguage support  (english, french and german provided,
  translation in  other languages  by the  user  is  possible),  world
  countries database.


  2.1. HARDWARE REQUISITS.

  - An IBM compatible computer (PC/XT/AT), monochrome or color.
    A harddisk is strongly recommended if you wish to store the
    informations.
  - A TNC on the serial port of the PC. This TNC must make itself the
    frames assembly/desassembly (TNC-2, PK-88, PK-232, KAM, and so
    on). Internal cards (for example DRSI) or modems requesting a
    specific driver (like BayCom) are not supported.
  - A receiver able to receive a frequency used for cluster traffic
    (to users or between two cluster nodes).


The program with its english documentation is beeing uploaded to IBM @ EU as
a self-extracting archive file RXCLU50.EXE encoded with 7PLUS in 16 parts
about 4700 bytes in length.

Please send .ERR files, if any, to HB9BZA @ HB9IAP. Comments and suggestions
for improvements are also welcome.

Vy 73 and good DX to all                   Robert - HB9BZA @ HB9IAP

used the Carribean callsign portable in the Extra bands.  I was told that

I know very well the station to whom you're referring.  He had a ZF call and
operated portable 3;  he lived in the 80m extra phone section for a couple
of years, and actually had a respectable signal.  As I understand it, the
ZF'ers decided to continue to issue ZF calls but restricted the validity of 
the
license for only the time the visiting ham was on the island.

Subject: QSL-info
Message-ID: <2D20D09B@msgw.kone.com>


I dare to ask QSL-info on this reflector although the subject is more 
relevant on DX-reflector. Since I got zero replys from dx-reflector and 
because one info I need, is contest related, I must ask for your help!

I need a CW-QSL from 6Y to go closer of the cw honor roll of DXCC.

I have sent  QSL's via buro and direct (with greenstamp or 2-3 IRC's and 
SAE) to the following stations and so far no reply (not even a note which 
would indicate not in the log):

6Y5J 1986 CQ WW DX CW 3.5 MHz (need this for 5BDXCC, 18 cards short
     on 80m and then I've got them all)
6Y5JH     1987 7 Mhz CW
6Y25JS    I could not find the year of the QSO

Any kind of confirmation would do. Stamp or hand written verification on my 
own QSL, just anything which the ARRL would approve.

I don't know why I have not worked 6Y5 recently. I have been very active 
between the years 1982 - 1991. These are only 6Y5 stations on CW I have 
worked during that time. Maybe I am always at the right time on a wrong 
frequency or vice versa, hi.

Is it impossible to get these cards or do I have to prepare to hunt on 6Y on 
CW??

Mass.  i have several radios and amps available, enough aluminum to keep
almost anyone happy, a couple keyers, 6 computers with ct (does ct do naqp???)
and dvp's.  have never done this one myself so if you are interested you will
have to tell me just what you need set up, or come early and do it yourself. 
contact me on here, on packet  > AA1AS, or phone 413-655-2714 before 9pm.

Was this guy a U.S. citizen?  If so he had to lie on the application for a
reciprocal permit.  If this incident was enough to move the ZF
administration to change their procedures, I wonder if it was enough to
move the FCC to take action against the guy?

Subject: NAQP station available
Message-ID: <9312282015.AA27130@thomas.ge.com>

i have no plans for NAQP for my station if anyone is interested in a place
to operate from.  location is in Peru Mass, about 12mi east of Pittsfield 
Mass.  i have several radios and amps available, enough aluminum to keep
almost anyone happy, a couple keyers, 6 computers with ct (does ct do naqp???)
and dvp's.  have never done this one myself so if you are interested you will
have to tell me just what you need set up, or come early and do it yourself. 
contact me on here, on packet  > AA1AS, or phone 413-655-2714 before 9pm.
73, dave

 The 2nd harmonic waited until 12/7/93 to arrive so the contest was not
 interrupted (lost a QSO every time the 'phone rang...) but the reporting was
 slowed just a bit...Congrats to WX3N@K4VX for best score in the west.
