Spots

 

The Spots function connects to a Telnet spot cluster using your callsign.  Enter your callsign in SETTINGS>Accounts>Account Editor.

 

Spot Settings list contains an extensive list of known DX Cluster Telnet sites. Click a site to use it as a source for spots in the Spots window. Retain Time is the number of minutes before spots are deleted from the Spots window list.

 

If you wish to use a site close to your location, the Spot Site Filter (Funnel) has selections for All Clusters, Closest to Me, and My US State. Closest to me uses the Grid Square value entered for the current account in Account Settings. The US two-letter abbreviation is also taken from Account Settings.

2.Filter "Closest to me" uses the first two characters of the Grid Sq entered in Account settings for the current account.

3.Filter "My US State" uses the 2-character state entered in Account settings for the current account.
