Thanks Fab,

I've been using DXTelnet several years with WriteLog.  For RTTY contesting,
all you have to do is put into the filter the word "RTTY" and only RTTY spots
will be sent to WriteLog during the contests.  It's nothing short of great.

For information on how to run DXTelnet over a LAN with WriteLog, check
out www.geocities.com/writelog/.  For those contests that allow packetcluster
spots, DXTelnet is the BEST!

Don, AA5AU

> If you've never heard about it, DXTelnet can monitor dx spots from a variety of sources, 
> simultaneously: Packet radio, Telnet (more than 50 nodes listed), IRC (the CQDX node), 
> Web (the popular dxsummit web-cluster).
> One of the nice things is that you can set your own, customized, spot filters.
> Filters are accessible from the "Configuration" > "Filters" top menu.
> One of the filters is called "Select spots by word".
> If you set this filter, say, to:
> AF,AN,AS,EU,NA,OC,SA,IOTA,ISL,ISL.,ISLAND
> DXTelnet will select only Iota spots.
> This could be useful for Iota contest purposes or for specific Iota needs.
> Of course this filter can be customized for any specific contesting/DX need.
> In addition, DXTelnet can feed almost any existing log/contesting software with the 
> (filtered) spots it receives.
