From S50U:

While having my morning coffee I was thinking about the current band conditions data. The idea is to try to capture all spots coming from different feeds and display them graphically according to their intensity in a specific band/continent area. The color of the conditions would change depending on the number of spots. The most reliable are RBN feeds, where the number of "busted" call's is probably the smallest, but not everyone has RBNs turned on. DXCluster can occasionally be exploited by DDoS attacks and the statistics get corrupted, but only for the maximum "n" time that the attack lasts. Outdoor programs are also reliable with occasional errors most likely due to the small size of the screens used during outdoor activities.
