Hi friends,
some good news at the start of 2009:
1) A new online logging map is available at
http://www.mwlist.org/mw_logmap.php?la=en
managed by Günter Lorenz and MWList.
While Software Defined Radios brought visualisation as a new dimension
to DXing (You can see the signals you receive, over a broad spectrum),
now the next step of visualisation can be explored: Near realtime
displays of logs on a world map. See what others hear. Let others see
what you are receiving.
The Perseus Databases logging function acts as support for creating
online logs with a few mouseclicks. You'll find further advice on page 1
of the databases.
2) TBL is alive again! While the last edition of the Tropical Band List
was published more than 2 years ago, I think that with the help of many
"online loggers" the content could be updated quickly. So take part in
the MWList online logging project, supported by TBL and MWList, covering
MW, the tropical bands and domestic services on shortwave - the real DX.
TBL will be solely distributed as part of the Perseus Databases, and it
is free.
3) The Nagoya sheet of the Perseus Databases now also contains
calculation of sunrise and sunset times for tx locations, as well as
distance and azimut values.
Users of the reduced version of the Perseus Databases (which keeps the
file size below 140 MB for Excel 2000) can variably add the functions
mentioned above to certain entries of the Nagoya list. Please refer to
"Read-first" document supplied with the databases.
