[ADXA] DX Cluster

Hey,

When actively butt in the seat, trying to work DX -- no 
contest/internet/TV distraction -- I launch *DX4Win, open the telnet 
link* and filter for spots from K/VE only. It's color coding, based on 
my up-to-the-minute DXCC status is what I want to see. Currently have 
been using *W1DX* over the last year or so.

But, during normal time in the shack doing various things, waiting for 
select expeditions to show up, I use *DX Summit* in two windows.  One 
with no filters, and one filtered for target DXCC. Like at the moment, I 
have S2 & JD1/m only on that one.

If monitoring FT-8, *JT Alert* color-coded, of course.

*ON4KST* for 6m and solar flux, etc.

*PSKReporter* Map for any particular band I am calling on or monitoring 
for Prop.

73, Steve, W5KI
