On the Contest Configuration window (REOPEN [Enter]), what contest did you
specify?  What mode?  What bandplan did you specify at the bottom?  Click
the bandplan [Setup] button and verify that the frequency ranges are
accurate.  The mode and the current frequency ranges defined in the band
plan control all bandmap spot filtering.  The timestamps do as well (spots
older than a certain age are not posted to the band map).

What Skimmer cluster are you connecting to, or are you connecting to a local
CW skimmer?  Do you get the same results when connecting to
n4zr.dyndns.orgport 7300 or
telnet.reversebeacon.net port 7000?

What version of WtDxTelnet are you using?  Did you check the "CW Skimmer"
checkbox under Options | DX Cluster properties?

Do all the spots show up in the Announcements Window (Alt-A)?  How about the
DX Cluster monitor window (Alt-O)?
