Person asked me what 'extra data' is now being included in cluster lines.

This anomaly of cluster spots stopping is a recent thing.
It seems to coincide with the addition of data being added to cluster spots.
Such as:
Depending on the choice of cluster version, cluster software you may see:
a + sign in your data which indicates this spotted station is a LoTW user.
also the Originating State, the cluster spots Zone and even what node the spot 
originated 
from.

So if a spot originates at a node using this 'expanded DX Spot format' and is 
then 
advanced to a different regional node along the cluster network, this data may 
or may not 
be advanced to your screen where it may or may not disrupt the flow of info 
momentarily 
where it stalls processing.

Now that's my theory...so if people who NEVER see the anomaly will indicate 
their node and 
it's software version
and
People who DO see it will advise me of their node and it's software version we 
may figure 
this out.

Right now...I never see this when connected to a node using the older AR 
cluster software.

Actually, it only takes one drink to get me loaded. Trouble is, I can't 
remember if it's 
the thirteenth or fourteenth.
