The parallel with W3LPL-3 is because the spots are unwanted.

I presume it is Digital Cluster System - the acronym was used
by DL4RCK.

What is DCS? Sounds like I'm missing a piece of the puzzle.

Although I was not one who sent comments to Walter, the biggest
complaint I have is that those spots were placed on the general
cluster feed without any identification that they were "skimmer
spots." This is along the lines of W3LPL's reposting of CW spots.
If the DCS nodes were identified with the -# "SSID" in the same
way as other RBN nodes, cluster operators or individual stations
using the proper software could suppress display of the "garbage"
and prevent them from swamping spots from "local" spotters more
likely to post stations that can actually be heard/worked and/or
spots for other modes for those *not* interested in JARTS.

Walter, it is a historical accident that the Reverse Beacon Network's DX
Spider Telnet node is known by its SSID as WB5VZL-1, because it is on a
server provided by the former holder of that call, who now goes by K5TR
of contesting.com.
What does this mean? Any spots on that Telnet node were uploaded to it
by individual amateurs using RCKSkimmer software, and then collected
from that Telnet node by someone on the CLX system. Our role in this is
passive, except that we decided, soon after you released the software,
to carry RTTY and PSK spots on the RBN and to identify them by their
mode.
Is there some reason why this is cause for complaint?

Hello,
I got a lot of "sharp" emails concerning the RTTY spots on the CLX
(DX-Cluster-System).
The logs are showing, that the RTTY-Skimmer-Spots from the isolated
Digital-Cluster-System are forwarded by WB5VZL-1 to the
WWW-Cluster-System.
I don't know where he is connected, but not to the DCS.
I will stop the whole DCS until this very bad configuration of WB5VZL-1
leave the system.
