[Dxspider-support] SH/DX not working as expected

[Martin Davies G0HDB]

I recently wanted to check whether the station JG8NQJ/JD1 had been spotted on the 
DXCluster. 

The DXSpider Command Reference information for the sh/dx command includes the 
following:

<prefix>        - for a spotted callsign beginning with <prefix>
*<suffix>       - for a spotted callsign ending in <suffix>
*<string>*      - for a spotted callsign containing <string>

I found that when I entered 'sh/dx JG8NQJ' I got a list of spots of JG8NQJ/JD1, as would be 
expected, but when I tried either 'sh/dx *JD1' or 'sh/dx *JD1*' the system returned a 'not 
found' message.

Has the syntax for searching for partial callsign strings changed, or is there a bijou bug in the 
sh/dx command that's preventing the correct return of spots that contain a specified suffix or 
string?
