549 <H2><A NAME="ss12.29">12.29</A> <A HREF="usermanual_en.html#toc12.29">filtering...</A>
552 <P><CODE><B>filtering...</B> Filtering things in DXSpider</CODE></P>
554 <P>There are a number of things you can filter in the DXSpider system. They
555 all use the same general mechanism.</P>
556 <P>In general terms you can create a 'reject' or an 'accept' filter which
557 can have up to 10 lines in it. You do this using, for example:-</P>
566 <P>where ..... are the specific commands for that type of filter. There
567 are filters for spots, wwv, announce, wcy and (for sysops)
568 connects. See each different accept or reject command reference for
570 <P>There is also a command to clear out one or more lines in a filter and
571 one to show you what you have set. They are:-</P>
588 <P>There is clear/xxxx command for each type of filter.</P>
589 <P>For now we are going to use spots for the examples, but you can apply
590 the principles to all types of filter.</P>
591 <P>There are two main types of filter 'accept' or 'reject'; which you use
592 depends entirely on how you look at the world and what is least
593 writing to achieve what you want. Each filter has 10 lines (of any
594 length) which are tried in order. If a line matches then the action
595 you have specified is taken (ie reject means ignore it and accept
597 <P>The important thing to remember is that if you specify a 'reject'
598 filter (all the lines in it say 'reject/spots' (for instance)) then if
599 a spot comes in that doesn't match any of the lines then you will get
600 it BUT if you specify an 'accept' filter then any spots that don't
601 match are dumped. For example if I have a one line accept filter:-</P>
605 accept/spots on vhf and (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
609 <P>then automatically you will ONLY get VHF spots from or to CQ zones 14
610 15 and 16. If you set a reject filter like:</P>
614 reject/spots on hf/cw
618 <P>Then you will get everything EXCEPT HF CW spots, If you am interested in IOTA
619 and will work it even on CW then you could say:-</P>
623 reject/spots on hf/cw and not info iota
627 <P>But in that case you might only be interested in iota and say:-</P>
631 accept/spots not on hf/cw or info iota
635 <P>which is exactly the same. You should choose one or the other until
636 you are confortable with the way it works. Yes, you can mix them
637 (actually you can have an accept AND a reject on the same line) but
638 don't try this at home until you can analyse the results that you get
639 without ringing up the sysop for help.</P>
640 <P>Another useful addition now is filtering by US state</P>
644 accept/spots by_state VA,NH,RI,ME
648 <P>You can arrange your filter lines into logical units, either for your
649 own understanding or simply convenience. I have one set frequently:-</P>
653 reject/spots 1 on hf/cw
654 reject/spots 2 on 50000/1400000 not (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
658 <P>What this does is to ignore all HF CW spots (being a class B I can't
659 read any CW and couldn't possibly be interested in HF :-) and also
660 rejects any spots on VHF which don't either originate or spot someone
662 <P>This is an exmaple where you would use the line number (1 and 2 in
663 this case), if you leave the digit out, the system assumes '1'. Digits
664 '0'-'9' are available.</P>
665 <P>You can leave the word 'and' out if you want, it is implied. You can
666 use any number of brackets to make the 'expression' as you want
667 it. There are things called precedence rules working here which mean
668 that you will NEED brackets in a situation like line 2 because,
669 without it, will assume:-</P>
673 (on 50000/1400000 and by_zone 14,15,16) or call_zone 14,15,16
677 <P>annoying, but that is the way it is. If you use OR - use
678 brackets. Whilst we are here CASE is not important. 'And BY_Zone' is
679 just 'and by_zone'.</P>
680 <P>If you want to alter your filter you can just redefine one or more
681 lines of it or clear out one line. For example:-</P>
685 reject/spots 1 on hf/ssb
697 <P>To remove the filter in its entirty:-</P>
705 <P>There are similar CLEAR commands for the other filters:-</P>
715 <P>ADVANCED USERS:-</P>
716 <P>Once you are happy with the results you get, you may like to experiment. </P>
717 <P>my example that filters hf/cw spots and accepts vhf/uhf spots from EU
718 can be written with a mixed filter, eg:</P>
724 acc/spot 2 on 50000/1400000 and (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
728 <P>each filter slot actually has a 'reject' slot and an 'accept'
729 slot. The reject slot is executed BEFORE the accept slot.</P>
730 <P>It was mentioned earlier that after a reject test that doesn't match,
731 the default for following tests is 'accept', the reverse is true for
732 'accept'. In the example what happens is that the reject is executed
733 first, any non hf/cw spot is passed to the accept line, which lets
734 thru everything else on HF.</P>
735 <P>The next filter line lets through just VHF/UHF spots from EU.</P>

1673 <P>This command allow you to estimate the likelihood of you contacting
1674 a station with the prefix you have specified. The output assumes a modest
1675 power of 20dBW and receiver sensitivity of -123dBm (about 0.15muV/10dB SINAD)</P>
1676 <P>The result predicts the most likely operating frequencies and signal
1677 levels for high frequency (shortwave) radio propagation paths on
1678 specified days of the year and hours of the day. It is most useful for
1679 paths between 250 km and 6000 km, but can be used with reduced accuracy
1680 for paths shorter or longer than this.</P>
1681 <P>The command uses a routine MINIMUF 3.5 developed by the U.S. Navy and
1682 used to predict the MUF given the predicted flux, day of the year,
1683 hour of the day and geographic coordinates of the transmitter and
1684 receiver. This routine is reasonably accurate for the purposes here,
1685 with a claimed RMS error of 3.8 MHz, but much smaller and less complex
1686 than the programs used by major shortwave broadcasting organizations,
1687 such as the Voice of America.</P>
1688 <P>The command will display some header information detailing its
1689 assumptions, together with the locations, latitude and longitudes and
1690 bearings. It will then show UTC (UT), local time at the other end
1691 (LT), calculate the MUFs, Sun zenith angle at the midpoint of the path
1692 (Zen) and the likely signal strengths. Then for each frequency for which
1693 the system thinks there is a likelihood of a circuit it prints a value.</P>
1694 <P>The value is currently a likely S meter reading based on the conventional
1695 6dB / S point scale. If the value has a '+' appended it means that it is
1696 1/2 an S point stronger. If the value is preceeded by an 'm' it means that
1697 there is likely to be much fading and by an 's' that the signal is likely

2042 <P>The system automatically reduces your privilege level to that of a
