FYI
Here is the Filter I use on my local AR-Cluster ( KQ8M.NO-IP.ORG )
which is running Version 6 :
SET DX FILTER ( Cty <> K and Cty <> VE ) AND ( SpotterCty = K Or SpotterCty =
VE ) AND SPOTTER <> W3LPL -3
This is what it does..
It excludes K & VE stations from being spotted AND
It supplies spots only from K & VE stations AND
It excludes all spots from a "certain" spotter.
Hope this helps users on newer AR-Clusters.

P.S. The exclusion of the K & VE stations being spotted is to
avoid seeing Skimmer spots of domestic CQ'ers. It's easy
to turn them back ON during domestic Contests.

Jerry,
The Node I use has VERY flexible filters. I have had the "certain" spotter's
un-hearable spots completely eliminated. The Node allows me to filter
by Continent, Spotter, Country, etc., etc., etc.
AND, the Node has Skimmers which can be turned on/off at will and set
to only spot by numerous criteria. It's pretty new and absolutely great!!
Everyone should give it a try!! It's KQ8M.NO-IP.ORG
It's run by Tim KQ8M who is a long-time DX-er and Contester and he
bends over backwards to accomodate the Users' needs.
Tim will help you set up a Filter customized for you. Once you have
it, you can possibly use it on your regular Cluster.

If someone knows how to set this in AR-Cluster I would very much appreciate
a response to get this setup. Like George, I find a certain spotter
annoying because 90% of the time I can't hear what he spots.
