DX Pager or TXT message alerts?
Hi guys,
Does anybody know if there's a software package out there which supports sending DX alerts as pages or TXT messages? I'm not thinking about a piece of logging software with an alert module built in, but rather a stand-alone app of some nature. Any ideas? 73 de Peter, W2IRT (ex-AB2NZ, VE3THX) Please reply to Double-you Two Eye Are Tee at Arrl.net |

It's the passing of needed spots to a TXT or SMTP gateway that's the real trick. If I knew here is the entire command in one line to be placed into a crontab wget -O - http://oh2aq.kolumbus.com/dxs/hfdx25.html? | grep $WANTED_DX | mailto -s DX $EMAIL_ADDRESS substitute $WANTED_DX and $EMAIL_ADDRESS as required. -- Alex / AB2RC There are two rules for success in life: Rule 1: Don't tell people everything you know. |

Thinking about a bit more, it would probably be better to use lynx instead of wget, as the output would be a bit cleaner lynx -dump http://oh2aq.kolumbus.com/dxs/hfdx25.html? | grep $WANTED_DX | mailto -s DX $EMAIL_ADDRESS as usual with *NIX, there is more than one way to skin a cat. -- Alex / AB2RC There are two rules for success in life: Rule 1: Don't tell people everything you know. |
