>I worked JR0BDQ/1, CT scores is as JD1o.

        This can be corrected by typing JR0BDQ/1=JA in the callsign field.
I also had CT want to log WH7K as Kure but corrected it by typing 
WH7K=KH6 in the callsign field.

        On a related topic, I worked KC7JEF/MM in the Black Sea (ITU 
Region 1).  He was sending serial numbers but the correct way to get CT
to log it is to enter the call as KC7JEF/MM and the "state/number" field
as "R1".  Maritime mobile R1,2 and 3 then show up as multipliers on the
CTRL-Z screen.

        On an unrelated topic, did anyone have CT insert a character 
before the F1 CW message if they previously pressed ESC?  I was getting
things like WCQ TEST... or QCQ TEST... etc.  I'm not sure if this is a
quirk of my computer or the software since I'm still having an initial 2
minute delay for CW sending at bootup.  That apparently is something in my
aging computer.

        One more thing...N7DF and I noticed the screen below the callsign
field would show the last station worked as a *needed mult* after pressing
ENTER.  Strange!  Wonder if anyone else noticed that?
