Pete,

Thanks a lot. This is what happens when someone wants to try the software
before reading the user manual, finds it works, uses it  and doesn't look
further into details!
Paul, please apologise my stupidity: I should have supposed you've already
done it :) !

73,
Radi, F6GNZ

It's already there, Radi, on the Packet 1 screen in Preferences.  You can
select spotters by prefix or zone.
