I've found that the best way to get a spot up on DX Summit or Ham Radio Deluxe
is to first post your spot to a DX Telnet site. These postings are almost
always picked up by Web-based sites like DX summit.
Here in Northern California I use dxc.n7tr.com
telnet is built into Windows, though if you have the execrable Windows Vista it
may take a little digging.
Good luck.
