Passing spots to spotting window

Another question about this.

My logging program has a build in webserver that I've running on Localhost.

When I go in to the Spotting window and instead of the normal VE7CC, I add a new line with Localhost:xx/spots, with http:// or without it refuses to connect.

Is possible to connect to the Localhost?
For me would be better, since I've all the filters applied on the logging program, and that way only needed spots would show up on the spectrum.

Hi Scott,
Thanks, I didn't remember that.
I'll try that when I got home later today at around 03:30 UTC (same time here, we're on UTC time) write now at work.

I'll report back here.

Are you sure that the cluster spot function in Thetis accepts connections/inputs from web-clusters?

To me it looks like it is for telnet clusters only.

An alternative approach might be to use a dedicated telnet cluster server to forward spots to Thetis, where you filter the spots on the cluster side.

Using a CC-cluster, e.g. ve7cc.net:23, you can pass on a list of dx entities you do not want to want to be notified on, using the SET/FILTER DXCTY/REJECT parameter, e.g. SET/FILTER DXCTY/REJECT SM,OH,OZ,DL.

There is also a special CC cluster client software (I have never used it) . Check out https://www.bcdxc.org/ve7cc/

No, the inbuilt cluster-system does not support web-sites (web-clusters). You have to use a regular telnet-cluster.

What is the logging software you are using?

Hi all, thanks for the replay.

Using DXLab suite, in SpotCollector I can filter the way I want, it's connected to 5 telnet cluster's at the same time, but I filter it, instead of the cluster source, much more practical and efficient with SQL expression.

The mistery is solve, so the Spotting only accept the telnet connections.

To bad, I was hopping that it would accept Localhost.
