filter properties.
- This command is used to maintain what DX announcements are allowed for

- DxFiltering is done by the user. Filtering may be done by mode (CW, SBB
or RTTY), and band : 2km, 160m, 80m, ..., 1cm, 6mm.
- Some special properties are available :
- VLF = 2km
HF = 160m 80m 40m 30m 20m 17m 15m 12m 10m
VHF = 6m
4m 2m 135cm
UHF = 70cm 34cm 23cm 13cm
SHF = 5cm 3cm 1cm 6mm (even if I
know that neither 1cm not 6mm are SHF ...)
- all = all bands, all modes
- If you precede the property with an exclamation mark (!), it removes the
property from the filter.
- Assuming that the filter feature is disable, if you issue the following
command sequence :
SET/FILTER HF SSB : You'll receive only HF spots
in SSB segment
SET/FILTER !80m : 80m meters spots will be
rejected
SET/FILTER VHF UHF SHF : Add VHF, UHF and SHF bands to the
filter
