Scott,
You can configure to accept or reject whatever you want: zone, band,
mode, country, and a bunch of other stuff. I usually have mine set to
accept spots sent by stations in zone 5, and to reject spots of
stations in the USA.
If you don't set some sort of filter, you will be bombarded with all
kinds of junk, like 2 meter spots from central Europe.
