APRS-22DX PACKETCLUSTERS MONITORDX PacketClusters are networks which consist of nodes andstations who are interested in DXing and contesting. If onestation finds a DX station on the air, he (or she) sends a notice tohis (or her) node. Then this node passes the information to all itslocal stations besides another node. This transceiver can displayreceived DX information and hold the latest information on upto 10 DX stations. Use this function to monitor the latest DXinformation in your local area.
