Local host congif

[Phil - M0EAS]

I am trying to get Sot Collector to feed SDC with filtered Telnet feeds.

Tried everything but SDC just not seeing the feed : 127.0.0.1

What am I missing in SDC?

I think that the server this spotter is trying to connect to does not understand SSID = "/spot" and disconnects it.
The SSID is designed to work with the ve7cc server.

So I can only use telnet cluster directly instead of via filtering software??

This is the Spot collector help text which I have tried to follow :

>

If the PC hosting SpotCollector is connected to a local area network (LAN), you can view the most recent entries in SpotCollector's Spot Database from any other computer on your LAN using a standard web browser, e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome, FireFox, Safari, or Opera. The automatically-generated web page also includes the most recently-reported WWV solar conditions in the upper-left corner, and provides access to the Spot Database Filters. SpotCollector's built-in web server is controlled by the settings in the Web Server panel on the Configuration window's Spot Database tab; these settings determine how many Spot Database entries are displayed, how frequently the display is updated, and whether columns for short path and long path opening probabilities are included. You can alter these settings from your browser by clicking the Config button, modifying the settings, and then clicking the Update button.

If the network name of the PC running SpotCollector is Fido, then the URL http://fido/spots will display the Spot Database in any web browser on your LAN. Alternatively, you can use the network address of the PC running SpotCollector, e.g. http://192.168.1.102/spots .

A smaller web page optimized for display on mobile handsets is also available. Using the above example, the URLs would be http://fido/smallspots and http://192.168.1.102/smallspots .

You can prevent the web server from responding to requests from PCs on your network by unchecking the Web Server Enable box.

SpotCollector's web server uses port 80 by default, but you can specify another port if port 80 is already in use by another application running on your PC; port 8080 is typically uses as an alternative to port 80. If you specify a port other than 80, you'll need to include this port in the URL specified in your web browser, e.g. http://fido:8080/spots or http://192.168.1.102:8080/spots .

This is a program for web browsers. SDC spotters connect to telnet servers.
Create several profiles for yourself in ve7cc and download them using ssid.

I only use RBN, but not to transmit its spots to SDC-Contest, only to have information about spots in BandMap windows. Only skimmer spots are sent to SDC-Contest.
Tip: Do not collect all the garbage from several clusters to transfer to SDC-Contest (checkbox "To SRV"). This is of no use, but will overload the program with unnecessary calculations.

I think I understand better now. I am now going to try the following which I understand should work nicely :

1) Install 'CC User' client to connect to VE7CC cluster. This can act as a Telnet server to feed log4om and SDC

2) Set up filters as required in  'CC User'   client and send using 2 user profiles  a) M0EAS-1 &  b)M0EAS-2. 

eg User profile M0EAS-1 for CW spots, M0EAS - 2 for FT8 Spots etc

3) Connect SDC CLUSTER # 1 to ve7cc.net port 23 using SSID -1 and CLUSTER # 2 = ve7ccnet port 23 using SSID -2.

This should result in each slice having a dedicated filter per slice..

That's the theory as I understand it. Now off to try and make it work.

Thanks again Yuiri
