[WT-support] CQWW CW issue

Hello

First off, the program worked great. We had it on four different 
computers in our M/S effort and just had one single crash of WT, but 
probably caused by the computer since its a bit unstable. There are a 
few suggestions and issues though.

I hope that some day you will understand how much the need to be able to 
shut down the spot bandwidth. Maybe its because you lads don't work much 
CW Contests (?) but this is a MAJOR issue. Lots of times I heard angry 
ops saying "What was that spot?" when a new DXCC arrived on the monitor 
and disappeared within seconds before they even managed to click the 
spot. Now with skimmer it has gotten even worse. If A45XR gets spotted 
on 80m for example, and some local W5 gets spotted by an US skimmer on 
the same freq, I don't want the A45XR spot to go away!

This is a MAJOR issue which need to be fixed, and I believe there must 
be many Multi-op/assisted stations needing this, especially now with the 
introduction of skimmer. Now with CQ 160 CW coming up in the end of 
January, when there are probably 2-3 stations per 100 Hz this has to be 
fixed because I really don't want to go back to the N1MM crap because of 
such a simple thing but still so important.

Now I had ops writing down calls and freqs on a paper so that they would 
not go away.
