Dave,
1) I would check the release notes from 9.92 to the current version
(10.03.003) to see if the frequency update issue was fixed. It's
also possible that it was fixed and not documented. So you may have
to try the latest version. I have used 10.02 and 10.03 in a multi
environment and haven't noticed this problem.
2) Not a feature in any version.
Laptop screen: The laptop display quality is dependent on how well
the video chipset supports the 50 line mode. Some Savage video
chipsets are known to have problems because they don't support this
mode very well. I use a Dell D600 with the upgraded video option
with CTWin and it looks just like my desktop in the 50 line
character mode. My IBM T21 is unusable with CT 50 line character
mode. I use CTWin on this laptop in the Windowed mode and change the
font size.

Subject: [ct-user] Freq passing, window size
During our recent HC8N CQWW CW operation, a couple of M/M issues
arose
in our use of CT 9.92:
1) Whatever it takes to refresh the automatically networked pass
frequencies for ALT-J, we don't seem to do it very often in our
operation (is it F1 CQ?). The frequency display times out and so
requires extra ALT-G traffic to pass stations from band to band. We
can
use the PASSFREQ command, but that needs to be updated manually if
we
QSY. It would be helpful to refresh on any F1-F4 activity (which
would
include INS and +). Is this possible?
Our network included two stations running TRLog (its author being
our
40m op), which had a similar issue that's being fixed.
2) Although we use the mouse to move windows around for best
visibility,
the ALT-I gab window is too big to move out of the way. Too often,
it
seemed to pop up just when F10 Check Country was being viewed to see
if
a mult was needed on another band. Moving mults is a time-critical
function (once they're gone, it's too late), so it would be helpful
to
be able to resize the ALT-I window to be a lot smaller, perhaps to
fit
on the bottom line or two of the screen. Is this possible?
None of us like the 50-line -VGA setup on a laptop, the only
computer
type we've found feasible for our particular environment.
Thanks de Dave, W6NL/HC8L
