And that is the essential difference between Jim's and my approach to DXing. I am interested in confirming the country. I am less interested in other QSLs. However, I *personally* want to WORK new band countries, just for the challenge/fun of it. You know, the ones that show up as a "-" in the country window. I would like the new band/mode spots to be white on green. As others have said, it's a simple matter to turn the colors off if it bothers you. Same could be said of red and blue. I know a fellow who doesn't chase awards at all, and has made all the spots black on white, regardless of priority level. Thanks, Paul, for the flexibility. 73 - Dave
