Good Morning everyone:
As I am getting ready to play in the contest this weekend, i was 
wondering what spotting sources everyone uses for those contests that 
allow spotting.
I have typically used the cluster at DX central and used the filters on 
my software or those at DX Central to filter out spots that i dont want 
(i generally filter any that dont originate near me (to help cut down 
the noise) 
I am more of a "for fun" Contester, as with my IC-706MKIIG I dont have a 
serious chance in any contest, but I do like to play, and I want to make 
the most of my limited time.  In fact some times i will enter contests 
as a Single-assisted to be able to use spotting networks -- like I said 
-- i have no hope of winning, I just want to have fun.
I use N1MM and I love the bandmap features that it has.
Thanks
TIM
