#DX Cluster

The DX cluster is a network on which stations share information about who is on the air and where. In a contest it can help to find multipliers, but its use affects the category in which you must enter. The articles under this tag explain the general etiquette of using the cluster during a contest, the difference between assisted and unassisted entries and the problems with wrong spots. Rules differ between contests, so check the current rules before you decide. Good manners and accurate spots help every operator on the band.
