NEW DX SUMMIT HITS THE STREETS ON FRIDAY, MAY 23, 2008 AT 16.00  UTC

The original OH2AQ DX Summit was launched in 1998. It  represented
something that changed the entire DX hunt. Spinning the  dial
became old history that would never return.

Yasme Foundation  President Wayne Mills, N7NG put it as follows;
"Jukka Salomaa, OH2BUA and  Antti Kantola, OH5TB were awarded the Yasme
Excellence Award  for  conceiving, operating, and maintaining the DX
Summit, the first widely used  Web-based spotting network portal. They
created a tool that fundamentally  changed the nature of HF operating,
a true advancement of the radio  art."

The OH2AQ Summit has been a reliable tool for DX spotting for ten  years. 
It was based on a concept and the computing power of those other  days. 
Today marks the 10th anniversary of this innovation.

The New DX  Summit, operated by Arcala Extremes, OH8X and supported by
Yasme Foundation  Inc., boasts a dramatic increase in computing power
with the latest available  equipment providing easy access to configure a 
Microsoft Server 2003  platform. State-of-the-art multiple servers are 
located in California, USA  for fast information throughput and massive 
data storage. A huge amount of  data will be retrieved for potential 
future applications. The system has  been developed by Admino 
Technologies Ltd. located in Oulu, Northern  Finland.

Traffic congestion should  be a thing of the past. You can sample the
speed and functionality during  this coming weekend's WPX Contest. You
should reconfigure your setup to  <http://www.dxsummit.fi> (please update 
your browser bookmarks)  because the original OH2AQ DX Summit will close 
down soon.

While the  new system begins as a stepped-up carbon copy of the original
system, it will  provide an advanced technical platform for many new
features that are on the  drawing board as we speak.

Arcala Extremes, OH8X is a group of serious  hams seeking technical
innovations, experimenting with advanced radio and  antenna concepts to
further the evolution of amateur radio by using the  competitive spirit 
as their trademark to attract young people. Their  stations, OH8X and 
CU2A, are located in Oulu, Northern Finland and Azores  Islands respectfully.

Yasme Foundation <http://www.yasme.org> is a  non-profit corporation
undertaking scientific and educational projects  related to amateur
radio, including DXing and the introduction and promotion  of amateur
radio in developing countries.
