For Field Day, an even better source of spots would be the Reverse 
Beacon Network's Telnet node at telnet.reversebeacon.net port 7000.  It 
spots everything, not just what spotters think are important or 
interesting.  Because the spot flow is so large, though, you will want 
to use a piece of middleware, to filter so that your logging software 
only has to handle the spots you are interested in (in this case, 
presumably, from North American "Reverse Beacons").
