V14.18 27th January 2009
SDCHECK:
Fixed CQ160, REF and UBA Cabrillo options.
Partial Call Checking - by Suffix:
When you type a partial call, followed by Full
Stop, the partial call window shows all calls
ending with the same characters.
The cursor now moves to the start of the callsign
field, and what happens next depends on your data
entry mode.
If it is "Insert" (INS), any additional callsign
characters are inserted before the cursor.
If it is "Overwrite" (OVR), additional callsign
characters replace the existing ones, and that's
probably not what you want. However, as standard
with OVR mode, you can use the Space Bar to move
the existing callsign characters to the right -
before typing new characters.
With Auto Insert data entry mode (OVR with the
"V" highlighted), the mode is temporarily
switched to Insert so that additional callsign
characters are inserted before the cursor. Once
you use any cursor-control character, or leave
the callsign field, the mode reverts to Overwrite
(OVR). This is easier to test than to describe!
With Auto Insert, whenever (and however) the
cursor is moved to the start of the callsign
field, the mode switches temporarily to Insert.
I recommend this mode - it's what I use at all
times. Use the AI command to toggle your data
entry mode between OVR and Auto Insert.
For information - I'm working on integrating
Super Check Partial (SCP) calls so that potential
dupes and mults will be displayed in a consistent
way.
HADX Contest:
HA entrants give a district code, and all others
give a serial. SD pre-fills the district code
when a matching callsign is entered on another
band. If, in these circumstances, the HA callsign
was deleted using either the Delete or Esc keys,
and another non-HA call logged, the HA district
code was logged along with the serial. In turn,
this caused an error in the corresponding
Cabrillo QSO record from SDCHECK. This error
applied to all similar contests. Fixed.
Rig Control:
When selecting a port for rig control, only 1
digit could be entered for the port number.
Fixed - thanks GM4ZUK.
WWPMC Contest.
Fixed the scoring. This contest takes place
on the first full weekend of February.
V14.17 9th January 2009
IRTS Counties Contest:
All EI/GI counties are shown in full, with the
county code highlighted. Thanks GM3POI.
WinKey - Callsign Type-ahead.
Increased the time allowed for WinKey's response
to 350 ms before treating it as a error. It had
been reduced in V14.16.
