FYI.... Here is the Filter I use on my local AR-Cluster ( KQ8M.NO-IP.ORG ) which is running Version 6 : SET DX FILTER ( Cty <> K and Cty <> VE ) AND ( SpotterCty = K Or SpotterCty = VE ) AND SPOTTER <> W3LPL -3 This is what it does...... It excludes K & VE stations from being spotted AND It supplies spots only from K & VE stations AND It excludes all spots from a "certain" spotter. Hope this helps users on newer AR-Clusters. 73/GL, Bob K8BL P.S. The exclusion of the K & VE stations being spotted is to avoid seeing Skimmer spots of domestic CQ'ers. It's easy to turn them back ON during domestic Contests.

I have had the "certain" spotter's un-hearable spots completely eliminated. The Node allows me to filter by Continent, Spotter, Country, etc., etc., etc. AND, the Node has Skimmers which can be turned on/off at will and set to only spot by numerous criteria. It's pretty new and absolutely great!! Everyone should give it a try!! It's KQ8M.NO-IP.ORG It's run by Tim KQ8M who is a long-time DX-er and Contester and he bends over backwards to accomodate the Users' needs. Tim will help you set up a Filter customized for you. Once you have it, you can possibly use it on your regular Cluster. 73/GL, Bob K8BL --- On Thu, 4/12/12, Jerry, N9AW <n...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: From: Jerry, N9AW <n...@sbcglobal.net> Subject: [Dx4win] Ignoring Screen spots from spotter To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Date: Thursday, April 12, 2012, 9:10 PM If someone knows how to set this in AR-Cluster I would very much appreciate a response to get this setup. Like George, I find a certain spotter annoying because 90% of the time I can't hear what he spots. 73 Jerry N9AW > Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2012 09:22:35 -0400 > From: "George" <goofy...@rochester.rr.com> > Subject: [Dx4win] screen spots from spotter? > To: <dx4win@mailman.qth.net> > Message-ID: <000301cd18af$5382b1f0$fa8815d0$@rochester.rr.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Is there a way to screen off spots from a spotter using DX4WIN? > There is a certain spotter that will go un-named, that spots DX spots that > I > can never hear anyway.
