[Dxspider-support] Number of spots in CQWW CW?

[Mike G3YPP]

Hi,

Is there an equivalent command to sh/dxs for RBN spots?
I would like to see a similar list for RBN

Hi.

I found out that the sh/dxs command can actually be told to get stats back in time. I didn't 
know that :-)

sh/dxs 40 20181130 (this command will get stats from November 30th and 40 days back.
I had no idea it could do that. Sometimes it actually helps to read the help.

I have looked at data back to 2018, and the number of spots in the SSB part seems to have 
exploded, while the number of spots in the CW part seems to always have been lower than in 
the SSB part.

 27-Oct-2018:   34264	 26-Oct-2019:   34239	 24-Oct-2020:   36303	 30-Oct-2021:   50188	 29-Oct-2022:   51285
 28-Oct-2018:   33525	 27-Oct-2019:   34896	 25-Oct-2020:   37104	 31-Oct-2021:   51686	 30-Oct-2022:   50757
 24-Nov-2018:   25971	 23-Nov-2019:   24457	 28-Nov-2020:   28661	 27-Nov-2021:   31481	 26-Nov-2022:   34667
 25-Nov-2018:   26922	 24-Nov-2019:   22849	 29-Nov-2020:   28348	 28-Nov-2021:   31466	 27-Nov-2022:   27665

The last two years, the numbers for the SSB part seems to have exploded.

If the CW spots from the RBN network, somehow means that less spots are available on the 
"normal" dx cluster feed, one could argue that it is not so good, as many nodes does not 
have RBN feeds, and if they do, it can be quite overwelming in a contest weekend I guess.

So, I am not sure if this is just the "normal" state of things, that there has just always been 
less spots in the CW part than in the SSB part, or if the RBN feeds are somehow doing 
something as well.
