[Dxspider-support] Analysing debug log to show spot routes

The values ​​don't seem correct. N2KI couldn't have sent two announcements in 32 days, simply because of how the protocol works.

Asunto: [Dxspider-support] Analysing debug log to show spot routes
 
All,

I’ve written a shell script that reads the contents of debug files (either plain .dat or compressed using Kin’s utility) and displays the number of spots received from each node partner, which it works out by looking at ‘route: [callsign]’ at the end of each spot line.  It deliberately doesn’t include the current day as that would skew the average figures.

I keep 31 days of compressed debug files.

It’s just something I was interested to know.

I don’t think this will tabulate very well so I’ve attached the output as a text file as well as the script itself.

Save the script somewhere in your path, such as /usr/local/bin, use chmod +x total_count.sh to make it executable and then you can either run it from within your debug directory or run it from anywhere, specifying the debug directory path as a working directory.

Note, this is not spots which originate at each node partner, it’s spots which were passed to my node from each partner.  The results don’t necessarily indicate that any node partner is better or worse than any other.

73 Keith.
