QRSS Plus

QRSS Plus is an automatically-updating website that lists active QRSS grabbers around the world. Every 10 minutes grabber URLs are read from grabbers.csv, the latest grabs are downloaded and analyzed, and only grabbers whose spectrogram images changed recently are marked as "active" on the website.

To submit or modify a grabber listing, E-mail Andy (G0FTD) punkbiscuit@googlemail.com or post a message to the Knights QRSS Mailing List and provide the latest grabber information:

• Callsign
• Location
• URL to the grabber image

⚠️ Please do not submit non-functional URLs! Test URLs on your own computer to ensure they function as expected before submitting them.

⚠️ Dropbox users must ensure their URL returns an image file, not a web page that displays an image. To fix this, replace www.dropbox.com with dl.dropboxusercontent.com as shown here:

 Bad URL: https://www.dropbox.com/s/35m4m8wn4w5hi7r/HF.jpg
Good URL: http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/35m4m8wn4w5hi7r/HF.jpg

If the URL contains a ?, delete it and all characters following it:

 Bad URL: https://www.dropbox.com/s/35m4m8wn4w5hi7r/HF.jpg?dl=0
Good URL: https://www.dropbox.com/s/35m4m8wn4w5hi7r/HF.jpg
