For those who aren't sure about what Ken is talking about, the NCDXF
beacons will be spotted more readily by your skimmers if all the NCDXF
beacon callsigns are added to the "watch list" file, which may be found in
*%appdata%\Afreet\UserData\**Watch.lst* .

I appreciate the reminder, as I just discovered that I forgot to update
this file when I installed the skimmer software on my new PC!

More details explained here:  http://reversebeacon.

Today, my plan is further edit ini file to lay in VLF band and hookup my

Here is a modification that you can make to skim the new LF bands (2200m
and 600m).  Watch out for line wrap if copying and pasting these lines into
your SkimSrv.ini and RttySkimServ.ini file; each entry should be on a
single long line, and of course [Skimmer] should only be listed once.
