What a nice addition to AMFONE.

Very interested in responses from the Philippines and A.M. operation over there.
Might be my retirement home.

This certainly gives visual pause to what one posts here doesn't it?  I would hope all visitors either are dedicated AM operators or use it from time to time so we might make contact.

If you sign in from another country is it logged against your home country or the country you are visiting?

It's by IP address and not differentiated by user, because it registers visitors as well as users.

If you have nothing better to do, you can go to this web site and try and match up the flags shown at the bottom to the specific country. Hey, even Nigeria has visited AMfone.

So has Ethiopia!

Wonder if it could have been one of the operators of the R. Ethiopia transmitter on 7110 and/or the jammer on 7165/7175.

We hit 100! I sent the league my application for AM Fone DXCC and worked all IP's. I reserved certificate #1.  ;D
