I wasn't running two instances of the program. I was running one instance. When I cleared the password and command windows, I was able to log in fine. The initial command box was set to "N1HT".
However, when I left-click on the green button for each of the sites, only the window for KB1H opens up. I can click on the others until the cows come home and nothing happens. What's up with that?

My instance of SpotCollector just connected to K1EU without any reports of
errors or disconnects.
On the "Spot Sources" tab of SpotCollector's Config window,
1. in the entry for K1EU in the "Telnet DXClusters" panel, do the Password
or Cmd boxes specify anything? (Both of these boxes should be empty).
2. in the "Initial Cluster command" panel near the bottom, is the Enable box
checked? If so, what is specified in this panel's Command box?.

Subject: [dxlab] SERIOUS problem with SC and spot sources
Just before CQWWCW I configured four spot sources in SC, dx-cluster, K1TTT,
K1EU and KB1H. They were set for auto and hide. DX-cluster was configured to
handle my outgoing spots. dx-cluster and KB1H worked fine. K1TTT allowed my
login and the sh/dx command to work but for some reason the sh/u failed on
that site. K1EU kept disconnecting me and telling me that "illegal"
characters were being transmitted with my call sign and dumping me off.
Yesterday, I spoke with Mike Russo, K1EU who complained that I was clogging
his cluster with disconnects caused by "invalid characters" being
transmitted when my call sign was sent by SC for login. He said he had 35
pages of disconnects. He finally blocked my access to his node. He explained
to me that it became almost a denial of service attack to his site because
other user were having difficulty using his site until he blocked me.
As an experiment, K1EU reauthorized me and I went to the YCCC web site
listing of all clusters and accessed K1EU's site through the link on that
page. No problem. However, when I brought up SC, the same errors and
disconnects happened. I have since removed his site from SC but that does
not answer the question. Since I can get in no problem with telnet, it would
appear that SC is transmitting something unseen in addition to my call sign
which is causing havoc at K1EU.
Has anyone had a similar experience? Anybody have a solution?
