[Dx4win] Cluster/slimmer-related questions

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

Hi Barry - try connecting to K1TTT, AB5K or the RBN ARC node, or any AR 
node running the latest software, and entering the following filter 
definition:

SET DX FILTER not skimdupe and not skimbusted

That should producedupe-removal and also eliminate virtually all busted 
calls.  I have not done a rigorous analysis yet but it seems to be 
working as it should.

For spots, please go to your favorite
ARC V6 or VE7CC DX cluster node.
