Spots my Flex is seeing

 

Is there a flow that polls the Flex and spits out a table (or a text file) with the CW spots that the Flex is currently seeing?
?
Thanks!

The Flex does not decode CW. You can feed DAX IQ out into a program such as CW Skimmer.?

If you have software that feeds spots into the radio, I believe there are messages that resend them back out to clients.

You would need to have something reporting them to the radio in the first place, like CW Skimmer. As Dave mentions, the radio does not identify spots by itself.

Thanks for the reply.? Not asking for a CW Decoder (my brain was sorted most of that out).
?
Let me restate:? When I turn "Spots" on in the FLEX I see callsigns on the waterfall from the CW RBN.? I would like to take those callsigns and do some sorting on them.

Thanks again!
 

Thanks, Steven. Makes sense.

I will restate (again)....

Is there a flow that takes the CW RBN Spots that I am currently feeding to my FLEX with SliceMaster (I guess I could also use FRStack) and move that information to table of text file that I can manipulate?

Good news, yes, the radio report out spots and you can get them in Node Red. Upon startup send the radio 'sub spot all' and it will start sending you the spots that it is getting from the external source. An example below:

Thanks, Steven. ?

Do you have an EXPORT of this flow that you could attach to save me some data entry?
?
Thanks again!

Is this a new feature, or has it been available all along?

Been there all along. I just never tested or used it.

I did not save the test flow I made. Relatively simple to reproduce. Just send 'sub spot all' sometime after the radio is connected and it will start sending you the spots that it is being sent. They will have a topic starting with 'spot/' and then a unique spot number.
