# DX Cluster and Spots
|
|
|
|
## Servers
|
|
|
|
Add multiple cluster servers (Settings). They auto-reconnect; one is the
|
|
**master** used for sending commands. The Cluster tab and the Main-view cluster
|
|
pane share the same live feed.
|
|
|
|
## Filter sidebar
|
|
|
|
A show/hide **filter sidebar** (shared by the Cluster tab and the Main pane):
|
|
|
|
- **Callsign** search, **hide worked**, **group duplicates**.
|
|
- Filter by **band / mode / status / source**.
|
|
|
|
## Per-spot status and tuning
|
|
|
|
Each spot is coloured by **status** relative to your log:
|
|
|
|
- **new** (entity never worked), **new-band**, **new-slot**, **worked**.
|
|
|
|
Click a spot to **tune the rig** (fills the callsign into the entry strip). A
|
|
multi-band **Band Map** shows panadapter-style strips per band.
|
|
|
|
**POTA** spots are tagged with their park reference (via `api.pota.app`).
|
|
|
|
## Sending a spot
|
|
|
|
Use the **Send Spot** window to announce a DX spot on the master cluster:
|
|
callsign + frequency + a message. The frequency defaults to the **live CAT
|
|
frequency** (full resolution, including sub-kHz).
|
|
|
|
## Spot alerts
|
|
|
|
**Tools → Alert management** — Log4OM-style alert rules on **call / country /
|
|
band / mode / spotter**, with **sound**, **visual** and **e-mail** notification.
|
|
Active alerts appear as a discreet bell in the entry strip; click it for the
|
|
list. Alerts are kept briefly and only shown when active.
|
|
|
