Yes Dave, Apart from my test PC virus/malware protection, whenever there is a change in an executable or dll I run them through an online scanner (20MB file limit) here http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/ It runs the submitted file through 19 different scanners, with the occasional false-positive on one or two. Results of the scans are shared with the anti-virus companies. The site generates a permalink for each file that allows you to distribute the scanning results to whomever.

Laurie, Then why don't they filter it at the cluster? Makes more sence, if you ask me. Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.

[digitalradio] Re: Cool Spectrum Analyser
Long ago I built several VLF (audio freq) receivers with various active and passive filters. The better ones were too big to take into the field and the better ones didn't perform well. Some number of years ago I got one of Steve McGreevy's little WR-3 series receivers (see http://www.auroralchorus.com/wr3gde.htm) and it was considerably better/handier than anything I'd built. The analog filtering is good enough to drop hum to pretty low levels when in the country a half mile or more away from power lines but it's still pretty bad when lines are closer. A few years ago DL4YHF added a very nice hum filter to Spectrum Lab and it works very well. I can actually place the receiver a hundred or so ft from the house (I'm sort of in the sticks anyway) and get good results receiving the various tweeks, whistlers and other things that comprise sferics. McGreevy's site contains a lot of recordings that he's made in remote areas. Also check out Renato Romero's site at http://www.vlf.it/. His book, Radio Nature is quite good and is now avail in English translation through the ARRL.

And since intention is the basis for meaning, it shows (me) that he is not an ignorant beginning programmer that has to learn from his mistakes, but a professional engineer who perfectly knows what he is doing. And apparently a bunch of weekend operators that have made making QRM their hobby: just see how often ROS users call on top of packet/pactor/winmor/MT63 stations, and ignore when a frequency is in use.

A safety pin on a gun, doesn't make the gun less destructive Sigi... Right but prevents loosing a shot by accident while the gun is in your pocket There are still users that do not know what is the soft doing in the background as not all users read the news (this group and others) If every user switches the function off it is like jose never programmed it He uses the same triggers for the psk reporter page (map view) So why not just switch spots off and enjoy the nice view on the map We can use the programmed (hardcoded) clusters for sending INTERRESTING spots by hand So just use what we have with the needed options I do not like that joses soft is spamming the clusters As some sysops do not forward ros spots anymore jose has to change them in every new version If spots were set to off nobody would be angry about some hand spotted calls The massive flooding (about 20 + spot per hour) is the problem So the safety pin is fine But in a new installed version the pin is set to unsafe Greetz Sigi

A gun can be a weapon to kill . or just a sport gun .. for precisely making a hole in a paper some ten feet away So it depends on for what you use that gun I like the sportive way . See how far I can go with a few watts on a simple antenna But others might use it for :how many winmore stations can I make angry . So you see it depends on the users .. .and what are the users .. WE ARE So it is our role to handle the gun safely in a sportive way . not kill somebody So you see I also can tell stories in metaphors Greetz Sigi
