Re: A first activation planned for Seabranch Preserve State Park, FL
I've also had positive results posting to the global activation calendar at http://wwff.co. 3pm might be pretty good for some EU contacts, and a lot of folks in the EU especially seem to look for

Using APRS for spotting
I learned today that the SOTA folks have a system that leverages APRS for spotting:

Does anything similar exist for WWFF?
I, for one, would be

Re: Parks Diverge
Dave,
I post on DX Summit and it gets picked up by SmartWWFF. Once you have been identified once on SmartWWFF, it will report RBN spots for you which is a very nice feature.

Hi,
What do you define as the “main cluster system?”
Today I spotted kc4jnw on the WWFF spotter and it hasn’t posted onto dxsummit spotter, that seems to be my experience of late. Maybe I’m

Re: Parks Diverge
That does appear to be the case now. I do recall in the past people checking
this and saying that it does not, so things may have changed. Thanks Tom. I'm
still feeding SpotCollector from 3 Telnet

Re: Parks Diverge
I've used the WWFF spotting and it always drops information into the main cluster system - never had a problem with it.
I don't use it on a regular basis as I prefer to use DXSummit, but WWFF spotting

Re: Parks Diverge
Strange how simple things can get so complex in the wink of an eye. Like Brian, I plan to activate parks and upload to both programs. I hope the relationship between the two programs remains civil so

Here in Florida I don’t camp June, July and August and not until late September. Between the afternoon storms and the gazzillion percent humidity it is not enjoyable.

Re: What kind of antenna?
I also have used and LNR EFT-10-20-40 with the 12m Spiderbeam pole (great antenna). I have also purchased the LNR-MTR which is another great antenna but requires more real estate. My pack-in antennas
