Presents the Holy Cluster, a contemporary DX cluster service offering real-time amateur radio spot data. This platform integrates a dynamic graphical map to visualize current contacts, enhancing situational awareness for DXers and contesters. Developed by an Israeli group of developers and supported by the Israeli Association of Radio Communication (IARC), the Holy Cluster aggregates DX spots from various sources, including traditional telnet clusters, the Reverse Beacon Network (RBN), and PSK Reporter, providing a comprehensive view of band activity. The cluster's design emphasizes a user-friendly interface for monitoring DX activity across multiple bands, including dedicated support for JOTA (Jamboree On The Air) operations. Its aggregation capabilities allow operators to quickly identify propagation openings and active stations, streamlining the process of making two-way radio contacts. The integration of RBN and PSK Reporter data offers insights into propagation conditions and station reception reports, which can be invaluable for optimizing antenna direction and operating strategies.

HB9BZA's LoTW users list, originally compiled since 2005 from DX-Cluster and user submissions, now primarily leverages the official ARRL full users list released on July 29th, 2017. This resource details 228,012 calls across 340 current DXCC entities, with the latest update noted on March 2, 2026. It offers various formats, including a full list, text versions, and breakdowns by country, providing valuable insights into LoTW participation for DXers. While the ARRL's official list with "last upload" dates diminished the original list's unique utility, HB9BZA's site continues to offer statistics and user counts by country, which remain of interest. The author, HB9BZA, expresses gratitude to contributors who helped maintain the list's accuracy over many years, achieving an impressive 96.4% match with the ARRL's data before the official release. Knowing which stations are LoTW active encourages more hams to join the system, demonstrating that even rare DXCC entities like Ducie Island or Heard Island can be confirmed quickly. For instance, HB9BZA recounts a 36-minute QSL confirmation for a 3A2MW contact. The list also integrates with the RXCLUS packet radio/telnet client, enhancing DXCC award tracking by identifying LoTW participants and utilizing upload dates for alarms.

Chesterfield Islands DXpedition 2000

This resource provides a unique historical audio archive of 50 MHz DX contacts, documenting significant F2 and Es propagation events experienced by PA2S (formerly PA2HJS) since 1978. The collection includes recordings of beacons and two-way QSOs with stations across North America, South America, Asia, Australia, Europe, and Africa. Specific entries detail contacts with rare DX entities such as ZS6PW, VE1AVX, C5AEH, J52US, TR8CA, LU8MBL, VK8ZLX, and various Japanese stations, often noting the mode (SSB or CW) and propagation type. The archive also highlights challenging pile-up situations and frustrating near-misses during major openings. The recordings, initially in RealAudio format for solar cycles 21 and 22 and later in MP3 for cycle 23, offer a practical illustration of 6-meter band conditions over several solar cycles. The content allows hams to listen to actual signals from different continents, observing signal characteristics like typical TEP fading from 5H3RA or strong F2 backscatter from OZ1BVW. It provides a comparative perspective on propagation effectiveness between solar cycles, noting that cycle 23, while not as robust as previous cycles, still yielded interesting openings. The archive serves as a valuable educational tool for understanding real-world 50 MHz DXing and propagation phenomena.

Monitoring real-time amateur radio activity is essential for DXers and contesters seeking rare contacts or tracking propagation. This online service aggregates DX spots from various **DX Cluster** networks, presenting them visually on a world map. Users can observe new spots as they appear, facilitating quick identification of active stations and potential openings. The platform offers filtering capabilities, allowing operators to narrow down displayed spots by specific bands such as 160m, 80m, 40m, 20m, 10m, and even VHF/UHF segments like 70cm and 23cm. Further refinement is possible by selecting the source continent of the spotter or the continent of the DX station, which assists in strategic operating. The service also includes a "Hot Now" list, highlighting currently active stations with recent spots. This dynamic display supports informed decision-making for pursuing **DX contacts** across different bands and geographical regions.

The mission of the HDXA is to encourage DX activites in Eastern Nebraska and Western Iowa. The HDXA is a ARRL Affiliated Club with members promoting & sharing DX information and experiences.

Demonstrates a specialized **DX cluster** designed to support the annual Jamboree On The Air (JOTA) event, facilitating real-time spotting for participating Scout stations. While its web interface has been discontinued due to security concerns, the cluster remains fully operational and accessible through standard cluster software. Operators can connect to the JOTA cluster by pointing their client to www.pi4raz.nl on port 7300. This setup allows for the exchange of **DX spots** and other operational information relevant to JOTA participants, ensuring that Scouts and their amateur radio mentors can continue to make contacts and log stations during the event.
