I am using the same module and it has been working fine. 

You do have to enter you grid at the beginning and other than that it has been pretty much plug and play.

Maybe you can just start another new log and see if it displays similar behavior.

I do not have many contacts so I have not experience it but it is possible that the bandmap behavior is normal in that stations can be contacted more than once on the same band if they are in a new grid. So I do see dupes when i hit space bar to enter their grid but I am not sure  how they show on the bandmap.

Good luck and keeping my fingers crossed for an opening between us.

So far I have basically worked KP4, HI and KP2 to the north and PJ4, YV and a couple others south.

Enjoy.

Operating on six meters and have 50 MHz set in the Packet Spots window but
all the calls are showing red with an X like it's out of band.

Also, when clicking some calls in the CW portion of the band on the bandmap
causes the mode to change to RTTY.

Using the ARRL VHF QSO Party module. Not even sure if that is correct but
didn't see anything else that might be for this contest.

Any ideas?
