[Dxspider-support] Bands.pl

I’ve seen this said before but it’s completely wrong.  There are literally hundreds of human generated FTx spots daily.  Yes, the RBN feed is like opening a hosepipe but to suggest there are few manually entered FTx spots is totally inaccurate.  I always have a terminal window open and a telnet connection into my own cluster when I’m either in the office or the shack and even without the skimmer feed enabled, there are always FTx spots passing by.
