How to verify SC Spots of mine actually go to Internet?
Dunno if I phrased that correctly.
Simply put, as I am in the process of learning WinWarbler, I see spots decoded by me appear in SpotCollector as "Local". In 'Config', I have DXSPOTS enabled and its "Spot" button is active. Next I go to pskreporter.info and look for any spots posted by my callsign. But I see none. If I transmit, eventually, usually soon, I will see the psk-reporter stations who heard me. However, that has nothing to do with SpotCollector , which is obvious. So how do I get my local spots to get posted somewhere on the Internet? thanks p.s. Thanks Dave or the links to help me be able to actually make contacts. That part is working nicely now. -- Bob KD7YZ

As described in

<http://www.dxlabsuite.com/winwarbler/Help/BroadbandDecode.htm> WinWarbler has the ability to decode all PSK signals on the band. WinWarbler's Broadband PSK Decoder provides an option (which you evidently have enabled) to create a local spot when a new PSK signal is decoded. "Local spot" means an entry is created in SpotCollector's Spot Database; no "DX spot" is sent to the DX cluster network. There is no way to spot automatically decoded PSK signals to the DX cluster network. You can, however, use the Spot button in WinWarbler's "QSO Info" panel to easily generate a DX cluster network spot for any station you decode or work. As I understand it, "PSK Reporter" is not connected to the DX cluster network. 73, Dave, AA6YQ

On Monday Dave might have said:
There is no way to spot automatically decoded PSK signals to the DX clusterok .. and following that, I see http://www.dxlabsuite.com/winwarbler/Help/Logging.htm#Generating%20DX%20Spots narrows the question of spots down, as you mentioned. I knew about this path to 'Spots'. Somehow I was thinking the reception/decoding was also like a "Skimmer". No worries for me. It was only a curiosity as I watched the collected spots from the cluster mixed with what I was receiving and 'spotting' . Thanks, -- KD7YZ Bob

I have written a utility for this -- it's listed on the DXLab installation
help page: http://www.dxlabsuite.com/download.htm#Bridges Here's the utility itself: http://dwestbrook.net/projects/ham/spotcollector2pskr/ It will watch the SC database for new local spots, and then post them to PSKReporter. DAVE -- My source code is posted there for reference, if you ever reconsider implementing PSKR in SC. Hmmmm.... maybe i could write a proxy for pskreporter that has a simple API via http .... I'll add that to the project list. ~~~~ Previous threads of interest: "Add Send-to-PSKReporter feature?" http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dxlab/message/89211 "new utility: post local spots to PSKReporter" http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dxlab/message/101569 On Mon, Aug 6, 2012 at 11:52 AM, KD7YZ Bob <kd7yz@...> wrote: ** [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
