[SFDXA] Spot Source - What Do You Use?-Here's mine

Mike,

I am currently using the same line-up as you are, but I have used these 
additional sources from time to time
K1TTT
AE5E=1
W9ZRX

I find the biggest  differences seem to be MODE variations which I guess depends 
on how the source has their band segments set.  However DXLab also reads the 
Comments or Notes and if the sender says RTTY or CW that takes precedent.  I try 
to block  W3LPL as I find  little correlation in his spots with what can be 
heard on the East Coast.

If you can determine a consensus, or some identified benefit for one site over 
another please publish those results. 


Regards,


Norm W4QN

Subject: [SFDXA] Spot Source - What Do You Use?

I asked this question several years ago, but many things have changed.  I am 
taking a poll to see what which Spot Source you are using for DX spots. 
When I was using DXBase, which only allowed of one spot source, I was using 
KN4F.  This past January, I switched my logging program to DXLab Suite 
(thanks to help from W4QN) which allows for connecting up to four spot 
sources simultaneously.  Thus, I am now using KN4F, VE1DXI, VE7CC, and 
DXSPOTS.com.  Just wondering what others are usingand what you like or 
dislike about it.  Watcha got?
