Spot 1.9.10 Released on 14 February 2009.
This release is a bug release, fixing a collection of bugs reported over the past month. One major change is the removal of the automatic update feature. The library I was using did not work as well as I wanted and I felt it was annoying people so it has been removed. I will be re-writing this function over the next few weeks.

Screen Details
We are continuing to explore the spot information panel.
In this snapshot, you can see I have clicked on the spot button under the spot display to show the spot assistant window.
In the spot assistant window, you can clear the screen (depending on which spot band radio button you have selected, the button will reflect that selection. Since I am showing only spots for 160m, the buttons reflect "Clear 160" to clear the display and "Get 160" which will query the cluster for 100 or so of the last spots for that band).
At the bottom of the assistant is a helper to make spot announcements, just enter the frequency, callsign, any comment you have and click send. Spot takes the worry out of remembering the exact syntax for this common task.
To retract the assistant drawer window, either reclick the Spot button under the spot display or click on the X at the bottom right of the assistant drawer window.
