[Dxbase] DXbase 2006 question

[Alan Leith]

Thanks to all who commented and made suggestions.
 
I had never seen that "I" before and now know what it is.  As for the
matter of ZL1AMO, I found Ron in the list of "Assign Callsign Alerts" which
I have never had occasion to use.  There was also a W8 in there (don't now
recall who because I deleted him and Ron) and the problem has disappeared.
 
Guess I need to explore this program a little more -- 17 years using it
(maybe more) and I don't know everything yet!!!!!
 
Another mystery solved by the DXbase crew, headed by WA6AXE.

Yep -- that was it !!!  The OPTIONS .. ALERTS Tab .. Assign Callsign Alert
Button ...

Once you place a callsign in that (top nine calls) -- then if it is spotted
there will be
a ICON that will be the  "letter"  I  with a small black background .... 

I had ZL1AMO in my Callsign Alerts and just TEST spotted the callsign ...
sure
enough -- there was the  I  (with the black background) ....  So, you need
to 
watch what is in your Assign Callsign Alerts window ....
