# DXPager
|
|
|
|
This script is a bot that sends you DAPNET messages if a DX station is spotted whose entity you have not
|
|
worked/confirmed before. To achieve this, it
|
|
* parses the output of a specific dx cluster server
|
|
* downloads your LotW QSL file
|
|
* determines the DX station's country
|
|
* determines the DX station's continent
|
|
* determines if the DX station uses LotW
|
|
* determines if the DX station's country has been confirmed via LotW
|
|
* and finally - if it's a new DXCC - sends the information to your dapnet pager
|
|
|
|
# Limitations
