Description

NKCCluster is a perfect radio-amateur (ham radio) DX cluster companion for when you're "up and about". With its small memory footprint, simple to navigate user interface, support for all popular DX cluster server software, quick and painless filtering, NKCCluster won't quite work you A Rare One all by itself but will definitely make your job much easier.

NKCCluster is compatible with DX Spider, AR-Cluster, DxNet, CC Cluster, and CLX nodes. It supports connecting to a user-defined DX cluster node, filtering DX spots per bands of interest, convenient lookup of stations' details on the Web, azimuth/bearing calculation, sending new DX spots to a selected cluster node and receiving cluster announcements.

Permissions this application requires are detailed on https://www.chonky.net/nkccluster/permissions-required.

Why don't you take a look at its Getting Started guide on https://www.chonky.net/nkccluster/getting-started and decide whether you'd like to give it a try?

I tried this app a few years ago and thought it was decent, but rather limited. I rated it three stars, then for lack of use I eventually uninstalled it. I decided to give it another try and I am very happy to report that it has definitely evolved into something far better than I remember. The app is very intuitive to use, and the filters are both easy to set up, and effective. I think I'll be using it a lot more now that it has attained its current level of maturity. The app developer obviously cares about his product and continues to improve and support it. I applaud his efforts. Thanks! 73/DX, Mike, K2CD

No alarms! Stable, but very limited usefulness for continuous monitoring due to total lack of alarms. A simple addition would make all the difference.

good job

Where is disable all modes? I've looked for 20 minutes trying to find this setting. Watched the video which shows disabling , cw ssb data etc. What am I missing here? Found it hiding in plain site. Didn't look closely at the mode buttons in the advanced filters settings.

FB Works well.

Timely spots One of the better ones this one seems to work very well for me it's quick and clear. Could use a connect button since when its loses connection you must shut the program down and restart it. It could also have the ability to increase the font size since its hard to see without my glasses. But it's still better than anything else I've found.

Awesome! This is the most useful spotting app available. I use it with the DX Labs spots on my laptop and it is great. The developer is extremely responsive to any questions. They have at times replied in just an hour or less. There are other developers who will never reply. I highly recommend it to all DX chasers

I would use this more if I could track the spots of a particular callsign and get an alert when a new spot shows. Ability to search on "de" by maidenhead locators would be useful as well. I am in EM64pr. EM or EM64Ppr or EM64PR would give me a look at who my geographic neighbors are working.

Paul G4IJL Really good application. When out portable really useful. Note you have to be in reach of a cell tower ot Wi-Fi though. May I make a suggestion? Make the app use the GPS (optional) and when posting a DX spot show it on a map (optional). I go out VHF portable and knowing where that spot is so I can beam up and have a go contacting the spotted station would be nice.

The best cluster app. Best layout. Can also add contacts from cluster into a logging program. Also links a call sign to a qrz page

How to control time zone? Great app, but can't figure out what controls whether time is displayed as local or UTC.

Beautiful app. Well worked out, clean and quick.

Best DX Cluster client for Android. Foolfproof, uncluttered GUI, app keeps running in the background. I like it vy much. SGS2/ICS CM9- no problems.

A Google User March 12, 2013

Awesome!

A Google User October 7, 2012

Quite nice Latest version is a very nice improvement over the original. I added a star to my rating. Needs settable frequency ranges per band (e.g. general only), preferably 2 per band so you can optionally include the low end for digital and the upper for voice...OR maybe one exclude range per band would be more logical (e.g. exclude extra class). Also needs option to allow QRZ subscription login for XML data for improved performance.
