[Dx4win] Bearing display bug?

Perhaps this has been going on all along, and I've just noticed it, but 
I find that hard to believe.  I'm not aware of any settings I've 
changed, although I did upgrade as soon as the latest version came out 
a couple of weeks ago....

If a spot comes in for say JA1AAA, the QSO info window will correctly 
display a beam heading for me of 320.

I noticed this evening on 6 meter spots, however, that if the grid 
square of the spotting station is put in the comments of the cluster 
spot, DX4Win displays the beam heading to that grid square.

Example:

Spot:  "JA1AAA  50110.6   >el96" - i.e. a Florida station in grid EL96 
did the spotting and is simply saying the JA is making it into Florida.

My QSO window immediately shows JA1AAA and Japan, but the beam heading 
is 135, i.e. to EL96

Bug? Some setting I'm not thinking of?

Thanks
