     <h4 class="mt-4">What are "DX", "DE" and modes?</h4>
     <p>In amateur radio terminology, the "DX" contact is the "interesting" one that is using the frequency shown and looking for callers. They might be on a remote island or just in a local park, but either way it's interesting enough that someone has "spotted" them. The callsign listed under "DE" is the person who entered the spot of the "DX" operator. "Modes" are the type of communication they are using. For example you might see "CW" which is Morse Code, or voice "modes" like SSB or FM, or more exotic "data" modes which are used for computer-to-computer communication.</p>

     <p>Note that the server owner has not necessarily enabled all these data sources. In particular it is common to disable RBN, to avoid the server being swamped with FT8 traffic, and to disable APRS-IS and UK Packet Net so that the server only displays stations where there is likely to be an operator physically present for a QSO.</p>
-    <p>Between the various data sources, the following Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are supported: Parks on the Air (POTA), Summits on the Air (SOTA), Worldwide Flora & Fauna (WWFF), Global Mountain Activity (GMA), Worldwide Bunkers on the Air (WWBOTA), HuMPs Excluding Marilyns Award (HEMA), Islands on the Air (IOTA), Mills on the Air (MOTA), the Amateur Radio Lighthouse Socirty (ARLHS), International Lighthouse Lightship Weekend (ILLW), Silos on the Air (SIOTA), World Castles Award (WCA), New Zealand on the Air (ZLOTA), Keith Roget Memorial National Parks Award (KRMNPA), Wainwrights on the Air (WOTA), Beaches on the Air (BOTA), Worked All Britain (WAB), Worked All Ireland (WAI), and Toilets on the Air (TOTA).</p>

     <p>As of the time of writing in November 2025, I think Spothole captures essentially all outdoor radio programmes that have a defined reference list, and almost certainly those that have a spotting/alerting API. If you know of one I've missed, please let me know!</p>
     <h4 class="mt-4">Why can I filter spots by both SIG and Source? Isn't that basically the same thing?</h4>
     <p>Mostly, but not quite. While POTA spots generally come from the POTA source and so on, there are a few exceptions:</p>
