So why am I seeing this spot?

[KD0ZV]

I assume the cluster time maximum age applies to everything including local spots?

If so wondering why I am seeing these spots. Just one at moment but I have seen more in past.

This spot from CW skimmer was 3 hours ago.

Oddly enough they eventually disappear. But if I stop the cluster and restart it then they all come back. Now I am seeing those spots from 4 hours ago from skimmer

Rich,

Check your Clusters initialization commands. You likely have Sh/DX 30 or Sh/MyDX xx in the command. What these commands do is show PAST spots, either the default 30 or whatever number you have set in the command. These PAST spots are NOT filtered by any of the settings in your Cluster configurations, as they are historical spots. The settings in your Cluster configuration only controls current spots flowing in.

My advice, comment out the Sh/Dx command in your cluster initialization settings and try that.

Hi Doug,

I do not have that on either the VE7CC cluster or the localhost.

It looks like your Primary connection - (Pri) - is connected to CC User. Check CC User for similar initialization commands.

Then check your other connection - VE7CC for initialization command. Your screen shot only shows the localhost connection...,

Doug,

Same settings on VE7CC

Rich,

Looking at your screen clips you are effectively logging into VE7CC three different times. At least two times for sure.

You don't have separate SSIDs for your logins. As I recall SSIDs up to 14 or 15 will receive all the same filter selections. SSIDs above that are discreet for each one.

Logging into the same cluster with the same or no SSID can sometimes cause issues. No SSID is actually "0".

Lee Sawkins has a short paragraph or two at his website where you download CC User from.

I'm not saying this is an answer, but might be something to look into.

Correct

So why do you think I am logging into the same cluster at last twice Doug?

I am not following that part.

My intention would be to use VE7CC (once) and the local only.

Rich,

I was looking at your local connection (screen clip), but was on an old iPad and was not clear to me (I'm not a fan of an iPad). I was surmising that it was a connection to VE7CC.

So my thoughts were if you log into VE7CC with CC User from your desktop that is one instance of KD0ZV, then you log into VE7CC from the V2 Cluster Manager on port 23 that will be the second instance of KD0ZV. If your local connection is possibly also directed to VE7CC then that would be the third instance of KD0ZV.

Any filtering adjustments made at your CC User connection to VE7CC will reflect on all the logged instance of your call sign. Per the SSID guide from Lee Sawkins (at link that Roland provided).

I'm not saying this is the case ... just something to take into consideration.

Multiple instances of the same login without SSIDs can show some problems. This from the CC User reflector and Lee Sawkins.
