Hello Saki and all,<br>
<br>
I'm agree with you, infact I've marked F8DGY as "badspotter" and, in
addition, I've locked him out of my node.<br>
In my opinion, the best way - at the moment and with the various
software available as dxcluster node server - is that on every node
the owner/sysop enable the user registration and apply a login
password for every registered user (in this way the callsign abuse
should be more difficult); furthermore, every sysop should watch its
users...<br>
<br>
...added my 2 cents too... <br>

<div>Salut Pat,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>obviously you mean the spots from F8DGY. This operator
seems not willing to cooperate and both the cluster
developers and the RBN devs are aware about this issue we're
currently facing. There are a lot of complaints around the
net and there even were a lot of complaints about this user
in the past years.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I already did send a suggestion through the list and
showed with basic command how to block/ban spots from this
user F8DGY but unless all (!) cluster sysops will add the
particular reject filter to their node, it won't happen
anything. Me myself, I blocked this spotter callsign from my
own node at <a href="http://dd5xx.dxcluster.net:7000" target="_blank">dd5xx.dxcluster.net:7000</a> and I am clear of this
spammer abusing the cluster. To my knowledge there seems
either no technical way or no interest from the DX cluster
developers to implement a "global" reject rule into their
software (DXspider, ARcluster, CC, ...)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have no clue how else we can prevent such spammers
abusing the cluster network.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some people are now sending
automatic spot from SDR while connected as user on
« classic DXCluster »</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I know it is possible to add
such station to a black list, but no sense to
perform this on one or few clusters.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t know the policy about
such stations and if a group already discussed on
this.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I just know that SDR spots are
only passed to specific station, and not spread
out to « classic » clusters</p>
