Hi Spider's

If you're interested for Summits on the Air - SOTA database.

If you're Spider Cluster system administrator please find latest SOTA
database in DOWNLOAD section of S50CLX web site. If any problems with
creating database on your cluster please feel free to email me for

This SOTA database was prepared by Danilo Brelih, S50U from material
obtained from the Worldwide Summits On The Air database service
http://database.sota.org.uk and it is provided in the format used on the
DX-Spider Packet Cluster systems. The command SHow/SOTA requires an
argument, a SOTA region code or even more SOTA region codes in a row.

Example2: SHow/SOTA S5/CP-002 F/MC-179 LA/TM-006 Lat./Long. printout is
possible only at correct entries in sota database in degrees, minutes,
and seconds as example : 46 10 38 N / 13 58 27 E
Use SHow/SOTA INF for database info and Show/SOTA VER for recent
version.

Summits on the Air is a programme that encourages radio amateurs who
enjoy hill walking and the great outdoors to take their radios with them
and operate from the mountain tops. An award scheme recognises those who
activate the summits and also those that make QSOs with the activators.
The programme can be operated anywhere in the world.For more information
about the SOTA program in your area, please see the main website:
