Today I've seen this, maybe it's related:

A call seemed to not pop into the call window when tuning to his frequency.
It was a "long call" (DL7UCW/p), and it was a dupe. "Short calls" always
popped up as desired.

The strange thing is, the call obviously was in the call window, but
invisible.
The cursor moved to position 9, space bar would result in call window saying
"<9blanks> DUPE" and clear call window (auto dupe = true), ctrl-P would
yield proper possible calls including the dupe shown in red. Ctrl-R after
the dupe check would make the call reappear.

Rig control OK, call blinking in bandmap OK. No relation to the colour of
the spot in the bandmap.
