I connect to ws7i-1. Never disconnected once.

But then again, I used N1MM for CQWW.


WS7I-1 	ws7i.ewarg.org:7300



Thanks

> I don't send out spots.  I just receive them. During CQWW CW, I kept getting disconnected from various Telnet Skimmer connections.  It would happen sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after an hour or a couple of hours.  My conservative estimate is it happened at least 30 times.
