DX4WIN receives both spots - the outgoing one and the incoming one.  If the 
GMT clock of your system node is EARLIER than your local clock, DX4WIN will 
keep the later spot, this is the outgoing one (without your callsign).  If 
the GMT clock of the system node is LATER than your local clock, then 
DX4WIN will replace the outgoing spot with the incoming one.

Nothing to worry about.
