[Skimmertalk] 6m bad spots

Andy,

I've uploaded my latest watch list file.  It's a text based file that can be
edited in a simple editor.  I have it sectioned off by operator calls heard,
beacons heard and beacons not heard.    I have not recently audited the
latest beacon lists to see if any new ones have showed up.. However, if one
does pop-up, it's usually spotted by the node and I manually add it to the
watch list, or move it from the unheard to heard section in the list.
Keeping the watch list up to date, along with adding common busted calls
(false spots) to the bad call list in skimmer and preventing aggregator from
sending calls that look like grid squares take care of the vast majority of
false spots.

I also keep an excel spreadsheet that parallels the information in the watch
list.

Paul,

Thanks for the guidance. Great blog article.

Can you share your current beacon.lst file? I am thinking of dedicating one
receiver of the RP16 to 6m, 10m, WARC bands, and running as aggressive.

Thanks

Andy
