RaDAR - Building alliances

Posted: 18 Dec 2021 11:47 AM PST https://zs6bne.wordpress.com/2021/12/18/radar-building-alliances/


ADIF Downloads




Ive just finished watching the latest South African Survivor series on
Showmax hence the heading and Building alliances. Id also transferred my
logs from the Online Community Logbook to other Internet based logs using
the ADIF download facility. It works like clockwork and yet another
facility built into the online logbook.




One doesnt have to look very much further than the Mode column to see where
our alliances lie. Certainly the growing CW community has taken to this facility and using it on a regular basis, yet sadly not ALL CW operators
do. Maybe those belong to another alliance much like the SSB alliance and
maybe the FT8 alliance too. I say that with tongue in cheek but that really appears to be the case.




Certainly as far as RaDAR is concerned the online logbook is a prerequisite
for any participation within future challenges. How else would evaluations
be done if the data is not readily available? It should be regularly used
in order to practice for those upcoming challenges. Tom G0SBW certainly
does that. He has found it an easy to use facility for logging his
pedestrian mobile activities. Many, like Frank ZS6FN, have commented on how streamlined the sharing of logs are using the system.




We are nearing the end of 2021 and how I wish the world could once again
return to normal
