Pile-Up Control System (PUCS)
Question: how do you control the incoming requests for QSO's of eager operators? Answer: let's all use PUCS (both sides of the potential QSO).
OM Barry, PC1K, heard our challenge and in a very short time helped us set up a Pile-Up Control System. Working the system shown here is very simple:
1. If there is an empty field available: type your callsign or SWL number and press Submit.
2. Your call/number will be called by our team and after we have logged your call/number in QRZ.com, your call/number will disappear from the screen and open up a new empty field for other users to be used.
With this system we will keep pile-ups more manageable and the flow running.

PH 80 MAN Something else special is in the pipeline that relates to the food drops over the Netherlands some 80 years ago. These drops were carried out by British, Canadian, Polish, and Australian pilots/navigators under the name Operation Manna. Operation Chowhound in the northern area of The Netherlands were carried out by pilots from America. In cooperation with the Museum of the British Bomber Command in the UK and Manna stations in Canada, Poland, UK and Australia, we want to activate PH80MAN on one of the many drop zones in the west of the Netherlands. In addition, stations in America are participating in this event as part of the simultaneous commemoration of food drops by the US in Operation Chowhound. See manna80.radio for the collective website. More information can be found by clicking on image, bringing you to our QRZ.com page. PH80MAN: Good for 2 points from the

<p>In order to keep pile-ups manageable, we are going to use PUCS (Pile-Up Control Software) when there are too many calling stations. But only then!</p>
<p>This software was kindly developed by <a href="https://pc1k.nl/">Barry, PC1K</a>.</p>
