Gary,

I notice this everytime a  /AM is it, for aeronatical mobile. That puts the 
call as dx in spain

it also screws up the dx spot, because I may actually miss the state that 
was spotted...

I think the only solution is to NOT add these prefixes directly to the spot, 
keep the /whatever as a comment after the spotted callsign
