By pointing your browser to <http://www.dxa3.org/vp6d/> DXA allows
anyone with an ordinary browser to see VP6D activity in near real time.
Within 60 seconds of your contact with VP6D, the browser page is auto-
matically updated to show your callsign, this confirms that your contact
is in the log (DXA reads the VP6D log). This process eliminates the need
for duplicate contacts on the same band / mode and minimizes the confusion
caused by pirates or other DX-peditions operating at the same time. Also,
they will upload the log every day to the VP6D.com - Log Search tab. They
will not use ClubLog and there is no Leaderboard. QSL via operators'
instructions. For more details and updates, see the following URLs:
