To verify that its still connected, click your mouse over the Green "Spotting" text in the "Status of DX Cluster" box.
You will see a "Test Sent <CR>" appear in the box
If it then changes back to "Spotting", its good, but if it continues to say "Test Sent <CR>", then the cluster is bad or crashed.


I just tried connecting to pa1rbz.dyndns.org:9000 using telnet
I get a login screen asking for my callsign
But when i put in my ke9ns callsign, nothing happens, so their is an issue on their end as of 3:54 UTC Aug 22

After the green "Spotting" I click on it and it appears ""Test Sent <CR>" all the time. And nothing happens.

So, when I connect in Logger32 via Telnet "pa1rbz.dyndns.org: 9000" it works fine. Via Power SDR it NEVER works!

And yes, Telnet is of course disabled in Logger32 then when I test it in PowerSDR.

And this appears:

I just looked at the photo you shared.

You forgot to put your Call Sign in the Call sign box (lower right corner of the spotter window)

You should also put in your LAT and LONG in the 2 boxes next to your call sign.

If you use LoTW, right click on the call sign box and put in your LoTW password, then right click again to close it.

I cannot get pa1rbz.dyndns.org port 9000 to work either. Other clusters work fine, but not this one. I do not know why?
