The YSA asks that ALL nodes switch during these 8 weekends. Also Pete will compose a standard message that ex-plains the mode and commands available. Discussion was held on node standardi-zation. The earlier discussion of BPQ versions was noted as related. Databases were also discussed.
Some nodes have extensive databases available.
Databases such as Contest, DX Countries List, YCCC Roster, and Daily Tips were all noted as those which could be added to all YSA nodes. KB1H will send a message to the YSA with a list of databases on his node. After the list is distributed, all inquiries to these databases can be directed to KB1H or one or two other designated nodes. Monthly updates are too differcult to distribute so the few key nodes is a better approach. It is felt that YCCC spots can be received by other competing clubs regardless of our efforts to hide the spots.
