Re: [Dx4win] Packet Filtering
Thanks for the off-reflector replies to this query. I have come to the conclusion that I cannot do what I want to do. The DX Alerts parameter relates to voice alerts and the 'ignore grey and black spots' simply ignores P8 and P9 spots. Indeed, if you change the colour of these, they are still ignored! So at best, it is badly labelled. It would be nice to filter out unwanted spots though! 73 John G4IRN.

Re: [Dx4win] Packet Filtering
Don't see a reply yet. I am not the best to answer since I let everything through, but some things I do know: DX Alerts are the audible notices. This allows you to specify what you want announced (voice, alarm, etc,) Ignore Gray/Black I think is the highest level you can go to block. I do not think this would work, but, have you tried setting the color for the items you do not want to see to black? Maybe you only want level 1, 2, 3 then set 4+ to black (or gray). Pay careful attention to what each level does. I think there is some overlap. I want new bands and modes for each DXCC and level 6 is more important to me than 4 & 5. I pay attention to all background highlighted spots. That is if I have kept the default spot colors where levels 1, 2, 3 & 6 are highlighted. I may have done that myself (forget since have had Ver 8 since it first came out years ago).

If you are using Telnet, other than 'unchecking' the band in Preferences seems to me the only way to keep the Talker from announcing ...but the spots are there in Grey. If you are using 'real' packet, depending on the system's software, you can use the FILTER command. ped Paul E.
