you can go to: http://www.reversebeacon.net/skimmers.php and get the addresses of many of the active skimmers and connect to them directly if the owner allows it. this way you could use a tool like m
p.s. i would also argue the basic premise of having a private remote skimmer as being a 'remote receiver' is flawed. you can not use a remote skimmer through telnet to get the exchange data, only spo

yes, that is frequently the case. this kind of diminishes the effectiveness of cheerleading since many cluster users filter the spots so they only see ones originating near them... so many stateside
The skimmer servers by default will not spot the owner's callsign. That is why you will see my skimmer missing during some contests, i have changed the callsign to the operator's call for that weeken
don't count on this... on ar-cluster the only record of that command would be in the debug files, since those get big quickly there are not usually kept around very long. i don't know if other clust
I am doing all i can do by posting my findings on line so that all of you out there can apply peer pressure on those who may be doing something unethical. I also supply the same data to the contest l

if you are in a class that allows multiple transmitters or bandchanges then it is perfectly acceptible and used by most big stations. macros to aid passing on cw and rtty are built in to n1mm logger
There is room for improvement. The skimmer software also has the capability to spot callsigns it hears that are not calling cq. This would find s&p stations. for obvious reasons this is not useful fo
That is of course assuming you want the skimmers to spot you. There are some other key words that would have worked the same way, but Alex has asked me not to talk about CW Skimmer details. However,
my node was overrun and kept crashing. 100k spots/hr times 200+ users DOES NOT fit through my outgoing dsl link which backs up the node till it runs out of memory. If terry doesn't put in a number of
