Interesting, Jim. There was some sort of major falling out between VE7CC and AB5K, which is, I think, why CCUser doesn't work with Version 6. I use 8 of the ten message slots in the N1MM Telnet window

Hi Rich - I suggest you take a look at beta.reversebeacon.net/main.php. Once we get the last few bugs out of it, it'll be much more usable than the last one 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse Bea

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 wo

The one I suggested is much more complete at the user command level, in particular. 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse Beacon Network web server at <http://beta.reversebeacon.net>. For spots, ple

The author of AR Cluster V6, AB5K, passed away several years ago, shortly after adding the CT1BOH skimquality filters. http://www.k3lr.com/w9zrx/AR-Cluster%20Filter%20Commands.pdf is the most complete

The list of CW and RTTY spotters (which is dynamic) is available to everyone, washed or not, on the RBN website at http://beta.reversebeacon.net. You can see who's connected now and look back 30 days

Or the compromise, as I have suggested, which is to filter for spots only from spotters in your "neighborhood." 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse Beacon Network web server at <http://beta.revers

Yes, but all 3 predominant cluster software packages incorporate a variety of filtering, as well as internal routines to catch many of those busted calls before they get to users. For example, I use a

See https://reversebeacon.blogspot.com/2022/01/where-to-get-rbnspots-for-users-in-last.html. There are over 100 clusters carrying RBN CW and RTTY spots, and over 15 (listed in the article) that carry

I've had no problems connecting anything to my cheapo Inland powered hub, including SDRs and other demanding devices. 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse Beacon Network web server at <http://beta.

Spots from which cluster, John? Which green dot do you mean? Is this a DXLab issue, or maybe a VE7CC? Do you mean they are *not* being transferred to your Spot Collector display? If I'm making all the

Gee, Dave, you'd think you maybe had something to do with the writing of SpotCollector ;^). I have tested, and see no noticeable benefit to being connected to W3LPL 30 miles away versus NC7J in Utah.

Rich, FWIW, I think there is very little benefit from using multiple clusters, or ones in distant locations. Now that the whole system is Internet-based, rather than the old RF cluster network, it mak

Well, that's good. I don't normally use a CC cluster, but I appreciate getting all of my spots so that I can see where I'm being heard, and how well. HNY Bjorn. 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse

Malwarebytes reported that it blocked dxspots.com because "it may contain a trojan." The malware program isn't infallible, but it tends to err on the safe side. 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse

Joe, this has got to be either settings in your Spot Collector or user-specific settings at the clusters - if it were anything else then others would share your pain. Try this - connect to VE7CC *usin

I'm inclined to agree with Jon. The evidence suggests that it's not a really serious problem - at this moment, we only have 179 users connected to our CW/RTTY Telnet port, and considering the number o

Exactly! 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse Beacon Network web server at <http://beta.reversebeacon.net>. For spots, please use your favorite "retail" DX cluster. On 12/29/2021 9:11 AM, Jim N7US

One that is intended to provide spots to end-users, i.e. NOT the RBN Telnet servers, which do not provide any of the services users have come to expect from *their* cluster. 73, Pete N4ZR Check out th

To the best of my knowledge, AD1C's dxcluster.info uses "(+CW Skimmer)" only to identify clusters forwarding RBN-origin CW or RTTY spots. I don't think there is any comparable resource for FTx spots.
