[Dx4win] Problem with Spots showing in DX window

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

What is the time spot of the "latest" spots shown in the DX Spots window?

For clusters that don't include the date in the SH/DX output, you can 
get old spots that appear newer.  For example, at 0010z, you do a 
sh/dx/100.  You get spots from 2345z to 0010z.  If the spots don't have 
the date in them, then the spots from 2345z are considered "today" even 
though they are from yesterday.

But this is just a guess as to your problem.

What cluster node are you connected to and what software is it running 
(i.e. CC, AR, Spider, etc.)?  Have you tried changing nodes?

Does clearing all the spots from the window make things work again?
