Joe this can be easy done
But don't know if you will be happy with the results

Close DX4WIN
First thing you need to edit is clusters.txt

Add second VE7CC with port 7400
VE7CC-1>Whonnock-BC,ve7cc.net
VE7CC-1>Whonnock-BC,ve7cc.net:7400

Restart DX4WIN 
Go to Preferences : RTTY Tab
Type = regular
COM port = TCP/IP
And Mark Check for DX spots

RTTY windows shows up now
Right click 
Select the second cluster with port 7400
When you are connected type
SET/SKIMMER

Now all FT8 spots get in via this connection and the others via 1st cluster

There is no autoconnect now so you have to do it everytime

But I think you will be happy with that 
I have 3615 bandslots (160M-13cm) so all remains most of the time green or
are ignored
But at a rate of 75000 FT8 spots an hour you will miss more when you still
need a lot of bandslots/modes

Hi

On 
https://groups.io/g/RBN-OPS/topic/ft8_spots/14497631?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpo
stdate%2Fsticky,,,20,2,20,14497631 
VE7CC has mentioned a solution in #7 about getting FT8 spot to e.g. 
DX4WIN

I have tested that part and it works. However, port 7400 does only shop 
FT8 spots, not other modes.

Is there a solution of how to DX psots for all modes including FT8?
