Exactly what we need. Either would do well with Spotcollector, but I dont know about those who use other spotting sofware at their own station (such as MIXW, etc.) I am just now getting into using MultiPSK and it works in conjunction with the DXLab stuff, so a lot of potential customers there, as well as those who use WnWarbler.

I was running WinCluster. I do have the bandwidth to run a cluster again but want to avoid the cost of some of the better cluster software. It would need to be a digital cluster that does not propagate spots to other clusters. Either that or have something like Hamspots' present cluster/pskreporter page configurable via Telnet to Spotcollector. That way, digital mode enthusiasts could take full advantage of Spotcollector's filters and collect from Hamspots PLUS the general DX Cluster world Andy K3UK On Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 7:30 PM, DANNY DOUGLAS<n...@comcast.net> wrote: > > > That me be true, but I have seen several stateside MFSK and many PSK spots > on the clusters.
