One of the huge problems I see for contests this summer is that the
SPOT used to erase the tracks every day to day and a half. Sometime
this fall, they started going to leaving the markers up for seven
days, with no way to display any less than the last seven days worth
of SPOT's on the shared page.

Recently, they announced a "24 hour" option, which should be a big
improvement, though still allows some overlap. I haven't flown since
they announced it, so I can't report directly.
