[Dxspider-support] Repeated PC19 & PC21 Data

[Anthony (N2KI)]

Happy Holidays to all as well;

I have a source of spots, but it's the folks that connect to me whom I have
no control over.  How can we establish a viable network to minimize this
situation?  I would be interested in being a jump off point to start which
ultimately will result in a schematic (for lack of a better word) for the
DXSpider nodes.  Is it an achievable situation or are there just too many
nodes to coordinate such an effort?  Maybe if we each organize our own
continent and then ultimately link the continents together we could do it.
Will it be worth the trouble?

For some strange reason, many sysops think that the more nodes you have 
connected, the better off you are.  The problem you are seeing is the 
result of the hopelessly fouled network that's a result of this 
thinking and too many interconnected nodes.

I believe the key is to find a few reliable sources of spots and then 
establish filtered links with those nodes.  As well as using the 
standard accept/reject method of filtering, I also have the other node 
set up hop table filtering.  In this way, all of the irrelevant 
node/user info (PCxx) is not even set to my node.  Hence, I cut down 
the tremendous amount of background churning that would have to take 
place on my node.

One man's opinion...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.
