V17.01 5th April 2013
Band Map:
What was previously SD's Quick Memory feature
has been expanded to the equivalent of a band
map. Even though SD does not integrate with
the internet to display cluster and RBN spots,
a band map can be useful - it saves time in
identifying stations already worked or flagged
as you tune up and down the bands.
With rig control enabled, calls are shown as
you tune close to (within the threshold of) their
original recorded QSO frequencies. The default
threshold is 300 Hz, and may be changed with
the THRESHOLD command.
Calls already worked are shown in lower case.
Calls not worked (ones that you deleted from
the logging line with Minus) are highlighted.
When you log successive QSOs on the same
frequency (while running), only the most
recent call logged on that frequency is shown
when you next tune across the frequency.
When you log successive QSOs with the same
station, on different bands, the second QSO
is not stored in the band map.
The band map may be more useful in shorter
contests, where many stations occupy a fixed
"run" frequency for most of the time - you
see their "worked" or "not worked" status
without having to wait for them to identify.
At present, band map entries do not expire
unless you delete them - use F10 to display
the complete table of entries. For V17.02
I will add the option to delete those older
than any selected time period.
SP DX Contest.
SPDX.LST, a callsign/district reference file
with 12500 entries, is automatically loaded
for the DX (non-SP) side of this contest.
On callsign matches, the district code is
pre-filled.
For Polish entrants, the Serial Received was
missing from Cabrillo QSOs. Fixed, thanks
SP4QCU.
Commonwealth Contest:
When logging HQ stations already worked on
other bands, the HQ field is pre-filled.
Thanks G3LET.
