I had an exchange of e-mails with Paul about this aspect of ARCluster
several months ago, so I'd guess it'll be addressed in the next
release. Since the prefix info is always in the last 2-3 places in the
line, it should be easy for him to tell DX4WIN to ignore it when setting
the mode.
As for the spot being greyed out when it shouldn't be, this is presumably
caused by FM not being set as a valid mode on the DXCC tab in preferences.
