POTA in SOTA navdušenci!
POTA (Parks On The Air) in SOTA (Summits On The Air) sta mednarodno uveljavljena programa. Spodbujata licencirane radioamaterje k delovanju v naravi znotraj naravnih parkov oziroma na planinskih vrhovih. Operaterji, ki v parkih ali na vrhovih vzpostavljajo zveze se imenujejo aktivatorji drugi operaterji, ki jih kontaktirajo pa lovci.
Na S50CLX telnet DXClustru sem implementiral zbiranje spotov iz programov POTA in SOTA ki niso del klasičnega telnet DXCluster omrežja (potaapp in sotawatch). Tako pridobljeni spoti so označeni z oznakama [-POTA-] oziroma [-SOTA-]. V polju za komentar takšen spot nosi:
POTA:
– Mednarodno POTA referenco; primer: SI-0831
– Način dela Mode; primer: CW
– Ime POTA reference; primer: Preval Vrh Ravni
SOTA:
– Mednarodno SOTA referenčno številko vrha; primer: S5/CP-002
– Način dela Mode; primer: SSB
– Ime SOTA vrha, nadmorska višina, št. točk; primer: Porezen, 1630m, 8 points
Z ustreznimi nastavitvami se lahko sprejema točno želene DX spote, to pa dosežemo z uporabo spodnjih filtrov. Za spremembo obstoječega filtra le tega preprosto prepišemo z novim ukazom. Vsak ukaz (KREPKO oblikovano besedilo) moramo vpisati v novi vrstici, vnos potrdimo s tipko ENTER.
– za sprejemanje samo POTA spotov, ukaz: ACC/SPOTS INFO -POTA-
– za sprejemanje samo SOTA spotov, ukaz: ACC/SPOTS INFO -SOTA-
– za sprejemanje POTA in SOTA spotov, ukaz: ACC/SPOTS INFO -POTA- OR INFO -SOTA-
CLEAR/SPOTS ALL ukaz odstrani vse postavljene filtre in S50CLX nam posreduje vse SOTA, POTA, DXCluster in opcijsko RBN (SET/SKIMMER <mode>) spote.
V primerih, ko ne želite prejemati POTA in SOTA spotov, naprimer v tekmovanju, kot prvi filter pred vsemi ostalimi uporabite ukaz REJ/SPOTS 1 INFO -POTA- OR INFO -SOTA-
Posredovanje DX spotov temelji na DXSpider DXCluster program algoritmu validacije in normalizacije, zavrnitvi dvojnih spotov ter zagotavljanju kakovostnih spotov ob vse bolj pogostih zlonamernih napadih na globalno radioamatersko DXCluster omrežje.

**********************************
POTA and SOTA enthusiasts!
POTA (Parks On The Air) and SOTA (Summits On The Air) are internationally renowned programmes. They encourage licensed radio amateurs to operate outdoors in nature parks or on mountain peaks. Operators making contacts in parks or on summits are called activators, and the other operators who contact them are hunters.
On the S50CLX telnet DXCluster I implemented the collection of spots from POTA and SOTA that are not part of the classical telnet DXCluster network (potaapp and sotawatch). Such spots are tagged with [-POTA-] and [-SOTA-] respectively. In the comment field a spot tagged as such carries:
POTA:
– International POTA reference number, example: SI-0831
– Mode of operation, example: CW
– POTA reference name, example: Preval Vrh Ravni
SOTA:
– International SOTA peak reference number; example: S5/CP-002
– Mode of operation; example: SSB
– SOTA summit name, altitude, points; example: Porezen, 1630m, 8 points
With the right settings, the exact DX spots you want can be received and this is achieved using the filters below. To change an existing filter, simply overwrite it with a new command. Each command (BOLD formatted text) must be entered on a new line, confirm the entry by pressing ENTER.
– for receiving only POTA spots, command: ACC/SPOTS INFO -POTA-
– for receive only SOTA spots, command: ACC/SPOTS INFO -SOTA-
– for receiving POTA and SOTA spots, command: ACC/SPOTS INFO -POTA- OR INFO -SOTA-
The CLEAR/SPOTS ALL command removes all set filters and the S50CLX passes us all SOTA, POTA, DXCluster and optionally RBN (SET/SKIMMER <mode>) spots.
In cases where you do not want to receive POTA and SOTA spots e.g. in a contests, use the command as the first filter before all others REJ/SPOTS 1 INFO -POTA- OR INFO -SOTA-
Spot forwarding is based on the DXSpider DXCluster software validation and normalisation algorithm, rejecting duplicates spots and ensuring quality spots in the face of increasingly frequent malicious attacks on global amateur radio DXCluster network.
The S50CLX DXCluster can be reached via telnet at: s50clx.infrax.si port 41112
