All the above are possible ways of connecting to a DXSpider cluster.
You may have some or all of these available to you. There may be one
or two additional ways to connect dependant on the network local to
the TNC or by altering your program configuration.

which achieves exactly the same thing. You should choose one or the
other until you are comfortable with the way it works. You can mix
them if you wish (actually you can have an accept AND a reject on the
You can arrange your filter lines into logical units, either for your
own understanding or simply convenience. Here is an example ...

reject/spots 1 on hf/cw
reject/spots 2 on 50000/1400000 not (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)

What this does is to ignore all HF CW spots and also rejects any spots
on VHF which don't either originate or spot someone in Europe.

This is an example where you would use a line number (1 and 2 in this
case), if you leave the digit out, the system assumes '1'. Digits
'0'-'9' are available. This make it easier to see just what filters

The simple way to remember this is, if you use OR - use brackets.
