\section{DX cluster}
|
||||
A DX cluster is essentially a server through which radio operators can report and receive updates about QSOs that are in progress across the bands. PyQSO is able to connect to a DX cluster that operates using the Telnet protocol to provide a text-based alert service. As a result of the many different Telnet-based software products that DX clusters run, PyQSO currently outputs the raw data received from the DX cluster rather than trying to parse it in some way.

Click on the \texttt{Connect to Telnet Server} button and enter the DX server details in the dialog that appears (see Figure \ref{fig:telnet_connection_dialog}). If no port is specified, PyQSO will use the default value of 23. A username and password may also need to be supplied.

\section{Hamlib support}\label{sect:hamlib}
|
||||
PyQSO features rudimentary support for the Hamlib library. The name and path of the radio device connected to the user's computer can be specified in the \texttt{Hamlib} tab of the preferences dialog. Upon adding a new record to the log, PyQSO will use Hamlib to retrieve the current frequency that the radio device is set to and automatically fill in the Frequency field.
