Not sure I find this very often. I DO USE a cluster that provides VERY specific filtering. Maybe it's my feeble antennas, but rarely can I hear stations that are exclusively spotted by non USA origination. Or...maybe it's that I only need BS7H...and if they are on...it should be obvious.
The other feature....it helps to avoid the incessant Announce/Full firefights that seem to be on the increase. But...that's what make DXBase and this hobby great....you can sculpt it to fit your image. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas F Lewis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "DXBase" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, November 01, 2004 8:14 AM Subject: [Dxbase] Spots > > > > > On the issue of packetcluster filtering.
