SpotCollector Spots to Panadapter

Postby Ric-W5IHL » Sat Feb 15, 2025 9:33 pm

Is there a way to send spots from DXLab's SpotCollector to the Thetis panadapter?

Current cofig allows a click on a spot in SpotCollector to change Thetis frequency.

Tnx everybody! Rik

AFAIK there is currently no way to do this. The spots-in-panadapter feature only works with the built-in spot client.

Is there a specific reason you need to use SpotCollectors spots?

4 ways I use or have used is via TCI using:

Current way - https://www.oe3ide.com/cluster-tci-bridge/

Previous ways - https://www.lw-sdc.com/ or https://www.log4om.com/ or https://www.swisslogforwindows.com/

Gary,

Thanks for the suggestion. The setup screen was very intuitive; I had it up and running in about five minutes, including the web server.

Thank Scott. Are you still using the DXLabs suite?

I am, but I don't use SpotCollector. I'm not a DX chaser.

Gary, I'm currently using TCI-Bridge but since I use DXLab, I wanted to compare SpotCollector to TCI-Bridge.

Yes to SDC too and I run it on occasion but have found it to be tricky and poorly documented.

I'm surprised SpotCollector can't send spots to other clients. Maybe I'm mistaken but does it not support the Flex panadpter?

SC doesnt work with Flex either, I use either SDC or FRStacks3 for that.
