[Dx4win] DX spot colors revisited

[Anthony R Gargano N2SS]

Agreed. If it were user definable, that 's how I would set it up for my own 
personal operating priorities. The interesting thing is that in the current 
release the color codes and numerical assignments imply those priorities 
but for whatever reason the program logic gives "4" precedence over "3".
