Traffic and holding

Now that I have a computer capable of running RC and Ultimate Traffic X, I'm running into "Holding". The weird thing is, it's not working the way the RC info says it should. I'm getting sent back to my last VOR waypoint as I get to within 70 miles of my destination. I'm guessing several things are occuring: I use the RC "pause" feature. I will reach altitude and then go off to do real world stuff...like go to work..and return to the paused flight at say 100 miles out. 10 or 20 miles later I get sent back to my last VOR, over 80 miles last time. According to what I've read a hold should be issued at some point and I should be doing the default 20 mile out and back thing over some point in space. What I think is happening is that radio call is happening while I've got my "RC Copilot" running the radio and the plane and I'm missing the call to do that, or maybe I need VOR's closer to my destination for them to send me to. I'm flying a King Air by the way, not airliners. Anyway, if someone could give me some help on this, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Bill
