Charly,
None has the right to call himself super station without skimmer installed
and connected to RBN. Set up skimmer in HS land, bridge the gap and help
yourself as well as many others. Then there will be no need to self spot
manually :)

Subject: [CQ-Contest] self spotting
1. I will self spot anytime off a contest. See why.
2. If I am not spotted during a contest, I will get bored and lay off for
hours; no help if you need me as a mult. See why.
Today there is no known RBN skimmer operating from JA to ZL and from HI to
5B. Now that is a very large hole to live in... without self spotting...
and I don't want to move anywhere else. I know KH7XS did move back to K4,
hi Bill.
In the latest IARU contest, HS0ZIA super station was spotted 22 times in
the 24 hours. That sounds like a small number considering our rare-ity,
yes or no?
I really do not understand the onus of self spotting even during a
contest,
especially if it is dead sure that is the only way you will be noticed by
yagi pointed away and fat runs going on between USA and EU.
Don't hate me because I am beautiful or because I self spot. (I sure hope
u know that old Pantene shampoo commercial). 73
