One easy way is to log onto a Telnet cluster that has the Skimmer spots in it's output by default. N7AZ.net does this.
One problem I have with this scenario: I use the packet filtering in DX4Win so that only spots from zones 3 and 4 are checked against the log. I assumed that 80% of the time, I won't be able to hear the same guys as you East Coasters. Since DX4Win deletes earlier spots for the same call, when T6AA is spotted by a west coast station and then immediately spotted again by an east coast Skimmer, the spot is grayed out and the alarm doesn't go off. So I miss it - this happens a lot! My final solution is that when I am in the shack but not tuning, I use a cluster without Skimmer spots. When I am at the radio and tuning, I use a cluster with the Skimmer turned on. 73, Bud N7CW On Fri, Feb 10, 2012 at 3:34 PM, Eric Rosenberg <[email protected]>wrote: > How can I have both Skimmer AND telnet packet spots in the spots window? > It seems as if I can have one or the other, but not both. > > Thanks & 73, > > Eric W3DQ > ______________________________________________________________ > DX4WIN mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[email protected] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
