[Dx4win] Packet Spots Filter Question

[Jim Simon]

I just ran into a glitch with DX4Win (8.04). It had been operating without 
any problems, when suddenly, yesterday, when I logged on I got all kinds of 
error messages (which I should have written down, but didn't), and then 
instead of the regular screen, I got the old "demo" screen. After some 
effort I managed to get out of the "demo" mode and restore the proper DX4Win 
screens and parameters, my logbook, etc., but a weird problem remains:  all 
of the packet spots are in light grey, as if they are all being filtered 
out, even though I selected the bands and modes I wanted in Preferences, 
Packet3. Can someone suggest how to cure the problem?

Thanks es 73,
