<DIV>A new feature in AR Cluster, with the support of Robert who collates LoTW user data, is a new flag "+" in the comment field to denote that the spotted DX station is one who is registered with LoTW. This indicator can be interpreted by cluster users quite effectively if they are so inclined as it shows that any QSO with that spotted DX will result in a LoTW confirmation if they too are registered. DX Spider could also do this in a similar fashion. An example of a cluster output with this feature is:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>DX de RV6LO: 10106.0 AP2IA cq cq +AP 1318Z </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>therefore if you need confirmation of AP on 30mtrs, this is a spot to take more notice of and to try for a QSO with AP2IA.</DIV>

<DIV>Is this something that I should be looking at to incorporate into the</DIV>
