Re: [Elecraft] 6 meter openings and how to catch them

Here is a quick and dirty page with the script in it. https://www.nk7z.net/cluster-scraper-for-dx-opening/ It is well commented, but remember it is a work in progress, I am in the process of switching from Zones, to Grids, as the trigger area, so a lot of extra code is in it that appears to

Another good way is to listen to 50.313 for FT-8 signals. More of them than 6M beacons in a given area. Lots of activity there when often there is no voice (or no voice yet). Been working the SW states from WWA on and off much of the day, morning was best so far. Mike K7MDL -- Sent from:

Wayne, I have a script Perl that scrapes my DX cluster, (will work with any DX cluster), then announces when, and what bands are open, via an MP3 file played on my home PC, for each band, based on how many spots from zone 3 are sent from DX stations to the cluster nets... Works every time on
