Assuming that this is Jim's question to you, forwarded to the list:

What Howard's referring to is the "QSX" and "Remarks" columns in the
DX Spotting window.
They're read off DX spots. The patterns used to pull out the spot
details are in the Preferences, Packet 2 screen.
There's a set of "DX spotting patterns" in that screen;
"DX|DE|r:|f|c|q|tZ" is the first on mine, which matches the cluster
I'm connected to:
DX de K1MU:           14313.0 P5/R0MEO             qsx 14375
                                     22:22
"r" matches the spotter, "f" for the freq, "c" for the call, "q" for
the QSX/remarks, and "t" for the time.
The help file has the five standard patterns; if you're using some
unusual cluster, you may have to adjust them.
