I found a bug with spot coloring last night.
The bug occurs when you log a QSO but over-ride the prefix.
The particular example is FO/DF6IC (or any of the other active FO/A
stations on right now).
DX4WIN assumes these are French Polynesia by default, because there is no
other mapping in the country file.
I had a black spot last night on 12m SSB -- I need FO/A but do not need FO
on 12m SSB (DX4WIN thought it was FO as expected).
I had a green spot this morning on 75m SSB -- I need both FO and FO/A on
75m SSB.
In each case, I logged the station, overriding the prefix to be FO/A. In
the DX spots window, the spot did NOT turn light gray (already worked). The
spotting window still thought these counted as FO, not FO/A.
When I closed my log and opened it again, the spot went to light gray as
expected. It's as if the country file that the DX Spots window referenced
did not get updated until I saved the log.
