DX / SWL Spotter program

[w4cm]

How do you get the Spotter program to load beam headings ?
I have loaded in my Lat / Long and call sign and all that is listed is zero degrees on headings for all the stations.

When the Thetis program was born somewhere along the line someone added the Spotting program DX / SWL Spotter. There is a small info window that provides some operation instructions. No where does it explain how the beam heading information is obtained or how to get the info to load. Does anyone know the answer ?

It appears to be an unimplemented function at this time.

It must have to interface with another application to provide beam headings. The best I can find out is if you want the SWL spot to work you must load a file from eibispace.de/.
Ke9ns has the headings info working / loading in his Power SDR version.

Sadly, Darrin has often said he is not interested in contributing to the Thetis codebase.

AFAIK no external files need to be obtained to use spotting in Thetis. However, the Thetis spotting facility definitely remains a work-in-progress and it lacks many features.
