No one is suggesting a “bending of the rules”. David merely wanted to know how
he could filter out unwanted spots from a portion of the band where modes other
than RTTY may be spotted. Filtering a group of spots does not imply skirting
the rules regarding “assisted”. Not only that, but the contest organizers are
pretty adept at identifying someone trying to fudge the rules when they submit
their log. The result would probably be a complete disqualification.

Per the rules the use of the cluster puts you in the "assisted" category. I'm
sure all the usual contesters are aware of that
and would not bend the rules thereby putting non cluster users at a
disadvantage.
73 to all, Mike, WM5DX.

Dave,
The band segment frequencies are fixed in AR User and cannot be modified.
However, if you click on either the Settings tab or the Bands/Key tab there
is an area call "Keywords". Here you can set up to 5 keywords that will
Reject or Pass any spots with that keyword in the spot.
For the RTTY contest I have mine set to Reject PSK, BPSK, CW, and ROS. You
could set a keyword filter to Pass RTTY, but then any RTTY spots without the
word RTTY in the spot would not be passed. Considering this I would just
use the Reject filter. Of course, any PSK, BPSK, CW and ROS spots that do
not contain the identification of the mode would pass through the filter,
but some of them would be snagged and rejected.

VE7CC feeding WriteLog:
I would like to eliminate spots for 14,070-074, same
for 15M. cutoff is now 14070 up. Don't want the
PSK spots when running rtty.
Also, I keep getting 4M spots and can't find where
to turn them off.
Tnx, Dave, W2YC
