This mostly pertains mega DX expeditions where DX is simultaneously active on a number of different bands and modes but their DX spots get mixed up with others and are hard to find.
Presently I can't find a way to easily figure this part out from within LOG4OM. I end up producing this output such as "sh/dx 10 cy0s" from another DX Cluster client to find out where they are and best possible band/mode to chase them on.
Can this be feature be added ? Basically when you enter a call in the QSO entry window, latest 10 (or so) spots for given call can be displayed in the Statistic window.
Example below. E6AF is active but I would like to know where else are they working at the time:

Re: DX spots
Thanks Slav but I can't see how this will help. I am using Alerts myself but it serves a different purpose IMHO.
Basically what I was looking for is that last 10 (or so) spots are listed for any call which is entered in the QSO entry window.
Regards.

Re: DX spots
Hi NIck,
IMHO Setting the alerts can be very helpfull. You'll always get very fresh spots from dx clusters with QRG, band and mode. The other info (worked/confimed/not worked) you can get from 'Worked before' window.
If you asking cluster 'sh/dx 10 any_callsign' it is quite possible to get actual info but from yesterday, hi hi

Re: DX spots
I would suggest using a cluster 'Accept' filter command
Like to accept the call or prefix, that way you will only see sports for that and none other.
You send the command from the Log4OM Telnet cluster window where it shows 'Send command'
If you search Google for DXSpider cluster filters you will see info about all sorts of usefull filter commands
Once your done with that DX-pedition or whatever you just send a clear filter command
You could also filter by DXCC if thats applicable

Re: DX spots
Thanks Terry and I appreciate your feedback.
This is what I am kind of doing today but instead of LOG4OMs Cluster Management window, I use DXLog telnet client. It works but it is kludgy and it involves some clicking and typing commands around.
The hope was for a simplistic approach of doing the same from the main LOG4om window. Just select any spot in the Cluster (F8) main window and "x" number of spots for that given call are listed nearby
Cheers
