How have the SM6SRW contest modules worked ?
Our WL is working fine now for CW and Phone ...
Even with the new releases of WL there have been problems
with bugs ... which had to be fixed .. and refixed ...
We are somewhat reluctant to download anythng into
WL which may have bugs that Ron will not be responible
for and cannot or will not fix .....
Has anyone had problems ?
