[Dx4win] CC User Config question

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi Jim,Thanks for the info. Just finished testing and here is the result that I am also posting to the CC User Yahoo Group under my initial question:
I installed CC User and updated to the v.3.0241 after some small problems (during v3 update download and "Continue" the message to close app was hidden, resulting in error message "Permission denied". Closing CC User and resuming, upgrade went OK).

After configuring User, Bands and two Telnet Connections, one to ve7cc-1 and another to my local CW skimmer port 7301 (edited CC User cluster list and added my Skimmer localhost port 7301), in the CC User window I started receiving spots both from ve7cc-1 and from my local CW Skimmer.

To link spots to my logging program DX4WIN, in CC User clicked on  Config-Ports/Logging Program and in Ports setup under Logging Program Connection checked "enable Telnet" and use port 7300. In DX4WIN I selected as Cluster " Local>CC User:7300", and: 

ALL WORKS UFB AS DESIRED! 

I am getting remote and skimmer spots in my logger's BandMap, by clicking on them I setup my radio band/frequency/mode, populate logging window with selected callsign, and Skimmer starts skimming the new band frequencies!
 " I'm haaaaapy again..."
So, I have followed your instructions and all went perfectly. The only regret I have, is that DX4WIN has not implemented VE3NEA's Band Master instead of the built-in BandMap, as the spots in the BandMap  get overcrowded , impossible to see on which frequency they are, while the Band Master has a possibility to stretch a wanted portion of the band with mouse wheel, to make spots and related frequencies easily distinguished. But, one can't have everything...
Best 73 and thanks again for your friendly support,
Radi F6GNZ

 Bonjour, Radi.

"Cluster" is the node you normally connect to.  If someone tries to
send you mail, or TALK to you, that is the destination to where the
talk/message is usually routed.  Think of it as your Home Node.  But
when you log in, that node is usually broadcast around the network
anyway.

Mail is almost non-existent nowadays, and people use ANNOUNCE and
broadcast to everyone instead of TALK.  It's not that important.
