[Dxspider-support] New version of Mojo (dx command fixed)

I already have that variable set, I’ve had it configured that way since March 2023!

If you notice, some of those spots aren’t self spots.  Some were (G0PKT spotting itself) but others that don’t appear locally were G6NHU spotting G0PKT.

There are no instances of ‘swore’ in the debug log and no instances of ’trying to self spot’ either.
