    Hello Luigi,

  You are correct, I just tested this myself on both my old node, and my 
newer Mojo node, and it acts different for sure.   On the original node 
it tells me I am not registered, but on the Mojo node if I login as say 
WB3FFV-9 the DX command works just fine for posting a spot.    I am not 
sure it's sending it out on the network, I think Dirk will have to chime 
in on that one.,

73's..
