I counted 146 FT8 spots from the same spotter in just one hour.And there are others doing the same all the day. Really I don't understand the point of flooding the cluster network with this infos. Luckily, using a telnet packet cluster, you can filter out them easily.

New life to an old Icom IC-735 that had been set aside for more than a year due to its broken VFO.
Found worn photodiodes and obviously the spare parts no longer exists. Some mods found somewhere on the web improved the issue but did not solved it, [...]
