Running 1.51 57.253, but this bug was also present in the previous release
that we were running (1.49 something I think). 

Spots made locally whose frequency end in .0 do not show when you do a sh/dx
on [band]. 

For example

sh/dx by g4swx shows.....

Just to complicate things the 4th spot down (G4DEZ) is actually a fake spot
coming from K1TTT - that's why it shows up below!

This is repeatable for a plain sh/dx on 2m command (without the callsign
qualifier) and also on other bands. 

Maybe the frequency info in the local spot database is getting written
differently when doing a DX command to dealing with an incoming PC11?
