[Dxspider-support] [sysops] F8DGY spammer ist back as F0YYZ

[David Robbins]

The persistent way to do it for the whole node in ar-cluster v6 is to add the callsigns to the files MyConnectBlock.dat, MyCallBlock.dat, and MyDxSpotBlock.dat.  you can also add things like his “<SDR” comment to the MyBadWord.dat.  Those files should be in Cfg/Setup directory under the ar-cluster server directory, if they aren’t there just create them with notepad.  As soon as you save the file the node recognizes it has changed and reloads it, no need to restart the node.

this psychotic guy really needs professional help, he should visit a psychictherapist. I would suggest to block his IP address at all, that's the best way to protect from such intentional spammers who have the goal to disrupt and disturb ham radio activities!

 

 

 

F8DGY is back with the pirated call "F0YYZ"mass spamming the DX clusters! Here's a brief command overview to mitigate this and block him on propagating his spam activities. You just need to extend the BAN LIST like following

 

DXspider sysops are encouraged to run following 4 command on their nodes:

 

set/baddx F8DGY F8SDR F8SWL F8SRX F7AAA F0YYY F0YYZ

set/badnode F8DGY F8SDR F8SWL F8SRX F7AAA F0YYY F0YYZ

set/badspotter F8DGY F8SDR F8SWL F8SRX F7AAA F0YYY F0YYZ

set/badword F8DGY F8SDR F8SWL F8SRX F7AAA F0YYY F0YYZ WPMCQ

 

you can check the lists with the command afterwards to ensure the call was saved correctly and is effective

 

show/baddx

show/badnode

show/badspotter

show/badword

 

 

I don't know about the AR cluster nodes in detail, but after some research I found the manual ("http://lynxdxg.com/archivos/AR-Cluster%20User%20Manual.pdf <https://deref-web-02.de/mail/client/Gl096IHPEwA/dereferrer/?redirectUrl=http%3A%2F%2Flynxdxg.com%2Farchivos%2FAR-Cluster%2520User%2520Manual.pdf> ") and if understood correctly the command for AR cluster nodes should be:

set/filter dxkeyword/reject /f8dgy

 

On a CC cluster node according the manual ("http://bcdxc.org/ve7cc/ccc/CCC_Commands.htm <https://deref-web-02.de/mail/client/kYhLM4yIAgo/dereferrer/?redirectUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fbcdxc.org%2Fve7cc%2Fccc%2FCCC_Commands.htm> ") the command should be:

set/filter keyword/reject f8dgy

 

if anyone out there is running CC or AR cluster and knows for sure what the appropriate commands for rejecting spotters/spots are, please tell us here on the list. Extend the commands above to have informed all cluster sysops running various platforms.
