On a FlexNet network, each FlexNet or Xnet node uses regular polling of its
linked neighbors to verify that these links are currently available for
network routing. An autorouter at each FlexNet or Xnet node exchanges network
wide routing data with its FlexNet or Xnet node neighbors. Whenever link
conditions change anywhere within the network, routing data is updated network
wide very quickly. Other systems such as URONode obtain for their own use,
destination and routing data from linked FlexNet or Xnet neighbor nodes.
A destination table with current network status info is maintained by each
FlexNet or Xnet node. It can be displayed by use of the <D>estination command.
In this table all destinations, where the autorouter knows a way to, are
shown.
This destination list can usually be found by use of the <A> command on any
FlexNet-Digi node or within the FBB BBS Users directory of an associated bbs.
This list is distributed via the Packet Network whenever it has been updated
with new information. Look for a Bulletin, FLXDST @ NESBBS
This list is maintained by Bob, K2BJG. Please forward: additions,
corrections, etc to: Packet: K2BJG@K2BJG.#ECFL.FL.USA.NOAM

The Radiogram Signature
"The place of Origin relates to the signature, and should make sense to the addressee as the place the signing party is located. It stays with the message to the point of delivery. ... The Place of Origin given in the Preamble is the location of this individual."
Words of good will, such as "Best Wishes" or "Sincerely" are placed in the text of the message.
Of note, full information about the person for whom the message is originated should be included in the signature to allow them to be contacted if needed. For example,

Station of Origin versus Place of Origin
I had a nice phone chat today with Bob, KB4RGB. Bob pointed out 2 items in the Preamble that can be confused. He prompted me to perform a review of Station versus Place of Origin. (Material Courtesy of ARRL Publication):
Station of Origin
"The call sign of the amatuer station originating (creating) the message for the first introduction into the system is the station of origin. This call sign must stay with the message to the point of delivery."
Place of Origin
"The Place of Origin is the location (city and state) of the party for whom the message is created, not necessarily the location of the station of origin. The Place of origin relates to the signature and should make sense to the addressee as the place the the signing party is location. It must stay with the message to the point of delivery."
Example: N1DN in West Hartford creates a message for a Bob in Wallingford. The Station of Origin would be N1DN. The Place of Origin would be Wallingford. The Signature would be Bob (the name of the person for whom the message was created).

Sunspot Low Reported on Space Weather News
Space Weather News for March 19, 2017
http://spaceweather.com
SUNSPOT COUNTS HIT 7-YEAR LOW: The face of the sun has been blank (no sunspots) for 13 consecutive days. The last time this happened was in April of 2010, near the end of an historically deep Solar Minimum. The current stretch of blank suns heralds a new Solar Minimum expected to arrive in 2019-2020.

KFF - Stratton Brook State Park CT
There was a break in the winter weather this weekend to activate KFF - 1721, Stratton Brook State Park in Connecticut.
The access road was plowed allowing stationary mobile operation. There were several State QSO Parties in progressed that helped with contacts. I also self-spotted on the SKCC Sked Page and County Hunters spot page.
Snow and rain were nearby but thankfully never really materialized.
I was able to make the 10 contacts to qualify for a WWFF / KFF State Park Activation:
N5IR, ON4VT, IT9MUO, SN7Q , K4EEI, K4YFH, K0DEQ, WB9EAO, KK4WA, NC4QP, W4BOH, and HA8IB. Thanks to all for the contacts.
