This is certainly anÂinteresting concept, Colin, but prime DXing spots like Masset and Rockwork are typically isolated, and usually withoutÂany possibility of high speed Internet. 
 
The idea of a GoPro camera might have some potential, though. I've often wanted to share the excitement of several S9 Kiwi signals pounding in to Rockwork 4 simultaneously during a limited time, live sunrise DXing session.

Subject: [IRCA] Live streaming DX sessions 

Show of hands: I know that we cannot ALL live on the East or West Coast and 
enjoy frequent DX sessions 
that are often the envy of many inland DXer's -- sometimes I take for 
granted that there is almost always 
something going on at the "Left Coast" as we call it in Canada. 

How would our readers feel about a "DX Telecast" or Live Stream DX session 
that you could 
log into and watch while it happens? Might only be 1/2 long or less - but 
it could be 
exciting... if you are into that kind of thing. 

I just suggested to Walt in Haida Gwaii that he video tape some of the 
stuff he sees and hears up there. 

Currently, a live streaming telecast from Masset would be technologically 
impossible because, for good or 
bad, the Haida Gwaii has not quite entered the new age of fibre optic 
technology and high speed internet. 

All comments welcome.
