Subject: Re: LF: WSPR : QSO or not QSO
CanI suggest you read thoroughly the documentation on how the mode
works before making claims about the database.and validity. The
database can only be updated by stations decoding and reportoing, and
if each QSO partner has a reciprocal report in the database for
near-adjacent time intervals , then they MUST have been in contact
with eachother and cannot be classed as anything bu a valid QSO. Its
impossible to have achieved this in any other way.
Please read all the documentation first.
