This release - when determining the likely mode of a DX station from its operating frequency when the station is operating split, uses the DX station's transmit frequency, not its QSX frequency (tnx to Iain N6ML) - assigns no DXCC entity to callsigns of the form A/B/MM or A/B/AM (tnx to Joe W4TV) - prevents a Spot Database Entry from being considered for WAS if its DXCC entity isn't K, KL7, or KH6 (tnx to Mike W0MU) - ensures that a Spot Database Entry's Needed field is updated if the entry's status is changed when a QSO is logged (tnx to Mike W0MU) - correctly updates an existing Spot Database Entry's QSX frequency when spot is received containing the word "simplex" in its notes (tnx to Iain N6ML) - automatically compacts the spot database if its size is greater than 1 gigabyte after a prune operation is completed SpotCollector 7.1.9 is available via the DXLab Launcher, and via 73, Dave, AA6YQ
