Joe, CCCluster has an
extensive set of filters for users to apply, including
spotterstate filters just like ARCkluster V6, but wrapped in a
GUI. I don't know how DX Spider does in this respect, but would
be surprised if Dirk doesn't have something similar. I've given
Dave his e-mail address if there are any questions.
As for applying filters
only to spots coming from the RBN, those spots make up 99
percent of the CW spots on the cluster network today, and except
for PSKReporter spots (which often are far from real-time), the
RBN is the only source I know of for FTx spot. And why would
you want to filter only RBN spots for place of origin?

For spots, please use your favorite
"retail" DX cluster.

Well and good ... however, I do not believe that CC Cluster or DX
Spider
have a similar filter or one that can be applied to *only* spots
sourced
from RBN.
Here are the "Manual" links for CC Cluster and DX Spider - is
there a
similar *COMPLETE AND ACCURATE* manual for AR Cluster (not some
"list
of filter commands useful in [limited] circumstances)?
DX Spider User Manual:
<http://www.dxcluster.org/main/usermanual_en.html>
Filtering Tutorial:

CC Cluster User Manual:

I'm not sure why you would want a list of

<http://www.reversebeacon.net/> on the home page there is
a blue text box that contains the callsigns of all currently
connected skimmers, and there is a more detailed list of both
offline and online skimmers at
<http://www.reversebeacon.net/nodes/>.
However, I believe the ARCluster v6 filter Pete is referring to
is a geographical one, such as
spotterstate=[ON,QC,CT,MA,NH,NY,OH,PA,RI,VT]

Dave has just written an excellent tabulation of
cluster-based
commands that can be used to block spot streams that
aren't of
current interest in each of those major programs -
DXSpider, VE7CC
and AR Cluster V6 - I believe it's in the Wiki, though I
can't come
up with the URL right now.
Yes, it's:
https://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/CollectingSpotsRBN
<https://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/CollectingSpotsRBN>>
The list of commands is one that I provided Dave early in
the beta
process for what has become SpotCollector 9.0.5.
Unfortunately, I
could not find complete and accurate user manuals for all
three of
the major cluster "dialects". Many of the commands suggested
are the
result of trial and error.
