I have never mentioned the RBN network, I was talking about being
connected to my local cluster which has only spots made by real people
with the W3LPL "heard here and there" as the only exception.

I could ask for that information on the air, something like:

KU7Y ur 59 15, is my frequency clear?

In the past I have heard many stations asking.


I still believe that the current wording of the QSO alerting
assistance rule only refers to any technology that spoon feeds you the
callsign, the multiplier status and the frequency of a QSO that you
can put in your log.
