[Dx4win] Cluster spots

One thing to do is to check the sort order for the spots in the DX Spots window: Right-click, then sort and arrival is likely what you want. If you have it set by time that might be causing the issue.

Subject: [Dx4win] Cluster spots

I use CC User to link to a cluster and then the spots are fed into DX4Win.   The issue seems to be caused by the cluster spots not having a date (only time) or I am not picking up the date properly.

In the morning say at 09:00 when the bands are quiet and not many spots, my DX spots window in DX4Win starts with the spots from 00:00 to (say)
09:00 but then shows the spots from 09:00 to 23:59 **for the previous day**.   It is not a big job to delete the yesterdays spots, however, after a few hours (say at 11:00) I suddenly find the spots for 11:00 to
23:59 for the previous day have been re-populated.

When the bands are busy the problem goes away because there are enough of today's spots to fill the window.

I am assuming the cluster does not **push** the spots out again, so how/why is either CC User or DX4Win asking for the last 100 spots again?

Can anyone shed any light on this or should I approach the CC User forum
