In addition to having RTTY set to Type=Regular and Port=TCP/IP, I have Packet 1 Cluster Interface set to Type=Regular and Port=TCP/IP. For this setup you can go to the RTTY Window and request Internet connection, and spots will be filtered in the DX spots window.
Now that I know there is another way to do it, I will get rid of the RTTY window and activate the Internet Connection through the Packet window. 73, Paul K5ESW > Honestly, I did not know you can do that.
