Welcome!

This is the start of a documentation blogsite for the use of the Twitter social network and Twitter Groups for QRP spot message distribution to the group membership. Twitter facilitates a SMS message (140 characters or less) from/to a cellphone....an ideal network for originating or receiving QRP spots from your cellphone! Thus it is possible to spot yourself from your cellphone using the text messaging service of your cellphone service provider.

Twitter Groups receives messages from "spotters" and then distributes those messages to group members, effectively duplicating the internet-based spotting networks. Now you can receive "spots" while in the field on your cellphone, provided you have cellphone coverage of course.

We are in the "testing and debugging" stage of this service. More information to come.
