[600MRG] WSPRnet problems

[Frank Lotito]

Good news for all the WSPR fans !!!  A question and comment - If an alternate "warehousing" web site to corral WSPR data comes to fruition, is K1JT, or someone else going to modify the WSPR program to periodically route received data to the new web site?  I would submit that an "automatic forwarding" of data, as it is now (when things are properly working) will be more valuable than each participating listener taking the time to corral their received data for routing to the new web site.  Bottom line, let the listeners' computer do the routine tasks for best results.

Good morning,

As most ops already know, the WSPRnet website has been down more than up
over the last several days.  There do not appear to be any updates to the
status posted any where, at least nothing current.  Its almost as if a
"take it or leave it " attitude is now the status quo.  Its a free,
volunteer-driven web site that I pay nothing for, so I can't argue.

An alternate data warehousing and rendering system and website is being
developed and tested by a father/son team but its not ready yet.  Details
will be forthcoming once appropriate. as well as instructions on the new
data entry point.

In the mean time, if you find spots in your WSPR console RX window that are
noteworthy, please be sure to post them or send me a direct email with the
details.  I use this information as part of my daily 630-meter band
report.  As you can imagine, the WSPRnet outage has complicated the data
gathering and reporting.

Thanks for your assistance.  73!
