Re: [IRCA] IRCA DXWW Column

[Nigel Pimblett <nige2730@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Brandon,

ÂÂÂÂ First off, thanks for volunteering to take on the job. Indeed, 
Phil has been doing a fabulous job in pulling the info together to 
create a column.

In my case, being a long way from the coast I tend to hear a lot of the 
more common TP/DU stations repeatedly, and others much more 
infrequently. Â That information might be of interest for comparing 
reception on a daily basis, but likely isn't that valuable in the 
column.ÂÂÂÂ When I do hear something out of the ordinary I would expect 
I should be able to send it to you directly.ÂÂÂÂ Job and family 
commitments mean I don't report every day, so some logs never show up on 
the forum, but might make the column.ÂÂÂÂ The last couple of weeks has 
been a good example of that, as I've had a few good New Zealand catches, 
but not on days I was able to report.

73,

Nigel Pimblett
Dunmore, Alberta

Coming over from the DXWW-E side, it is amazing the work Phil has been doing to glean your logs from your posts in the forum and whipping them up into format for the column. I have been used to Mark's meticulously formatted reports, and other folks specifically submitting logs for the column.

Phil has been gleaning your posts for logs you have posted in your own ways, some with details, some without besides good/poor/fair, some without times or with dates to be pulled from the time of your post. Hardly any seem to be submitted to Phil specifically for DXWW-W.

Easy stuff like semi consistent date and time formats, details beyond good/fair/poor. In good faith, I cannot add posts with simply good/fair/poor or especially carrier posts. I understand you may be posting daily captures, but need details for others not so fortunate.
