HamAlert as a DX Cluster in Ham Radio Deluxe

I didn’t realize until recently that HamAlert can be used as a DX cluster. To add it Ham Radio Deluxe do the following:

  • Create an account at HamAlert.org
  • Open HRD Logbook
  • Go to View->DX Cluster->Display
  • Click the Toolbar Options button
  • Under the Connection tab, click the Add button
  • Add a Title
  • Set the Address field to hamalert.org
  • Set the Port field to 7300
  • Set the Login to your HamAlert ID
  • Set the Password to to your HamAlert password
  • Click OK
  • Select the HamAlert entry from the node list
  • Click the Connect button.

Any activated HamAlerts triggers you have enabled should show in the DX Cluster Spots window.
