Well you cannot fix stupid, but I use VE7CC's client and filter the best I can before spots come to DX4WIN, also I only want the 6M and 160M ones which tends to limit the crap somewhat. But, you make a good point there will be false alarms and if it gets to be too much turn it off. I have this feature in my JT65-HF software and it works well with few false alarms.

This would be useful to me for 6 and 160 new countries when I am somewhere in the house or office doing something else and a new one shows up. BTW, I have also downloaded all of the free trials of other programs I can find and tested them. I found that DX4WIN is really a good program and filling in all of the confirmed and/or checked status of 12,000+ contacts is a very difficult thing to do. So Paul, it you update occasionally I am here to stay!
