Hi Bob, and thanks for the fast response.

Before you read below, I just had a thought. Filipe NP4Z was operating here for IARU. Perhaps he installed the IARU HQ version of WinTest on my PC. Could that be the issue? I presume it would not allow spots to be seen.

The Broadcast IP address and Port number match those in WinTest, and the IP address is correct for my local network. The "Disable communication with Win-Test" checkbox is not checked. The DX Cluster window in WinTest is blank. "Enable local network" is checked in WinTest Interface configuration.
