Other info column

I've noticed that the "Other Info" column in the cluster retains previous comments. For instance, I spot the E51. In the Other Info, this shows up:

RTTY simplex....lonely
RTTY simplex....strong
FB Instant OQRS Clublog!
RTTY
RTTY Simplex, 599 in MI
RTTY via QRZ.Com/E51DWC
Simplex with dipole /100watts
RTTU simplex Long Path
RTTY simplex no waiting
CQ CQ Simplex
rtty simplex
RTTY not busy!!
RTTY simplex
RTTY simplex
Simplex

Needless to say I didn't type any of this in my spot. Is there a way to not have previous comments included in what I spot? Sometimes it's name calling and I don't want others to think I made those type of comments. I guess I could just close that column and not look at it but it's still there.

I don't understand what or where this 'Other Info' column that you refer to is - Please explain fully where you see this column?

Are you sure it is in our software?

Hi, this is not what you're spotting. Those informations are grouped from multiple received spots on the same callsign/mode/band

Log4OM cluster groups reports to avoid duplicates, but retains the latest 15 spot informations in that field.

Hi Terry,

this is the column that WB4N (Name in a signature please) refers to:

As Lele said, that´s only comments of the latest spots for this callsign it is not what WB4N send to the cluster. In a normal cluster in the web nobody see this information as part of a WB4N spot.

;) ;)

But that is INCOMING spot information and it is not re sent when the user of Log4OM spots a DX Call ??????????????????????
