Band and mode, I would say. For instance, FSK441 (digital) is used for meteor scatter for example. Just treat it as any other award - DXCC/IOTA etc.

If you're thinking of going down the route of a pre-prepared list of grids that exclude the large areas of "wet" or "frozen" ones, then I would be quite happy to put in the work of preparing such a list.

Hi Meindert,

think some guys not knowing that there are a lot of /MM awards. For most of them you need a locator to define the position ...... Think it´s not a good idea to exclude wet and cold grid squares. ;) ;)

Some worldwide maritime mobile awards here as an overview: http://www.assoradiomarinai.it/award/maritimeawards.htm

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: Yes, that´s true .... I´m not shure that any other logger make this possible but when not "YOU ARE THE FIRST" :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

B.t.w.

If i work /MM i put in the locataor information that the /MM will provide. If i take a look with the search funktion i let me show all /MM which are confirmed by paper or LotW and eQSL (AG) if the award manager provide this. Think your search function is verry efficient if used correctly :mrgreen: ;)
