Just a heads up to the NA users that there will be a new NA version coming
out tomorrow evening in time for Field Day 2002. Release 10.57 will have
fixed the field format bug which affects the QRP and IOTA contests, plus
fixes the bug in "Stay On Alternate Radio After QSO" which the
long-suffering N6RT has waited so patiently for.
10.57 also adds support for IC756Pro, FT100/D (tnx AD6TF for the CAT info)
and FT-847 radios. (If somebody can tell me the C-IV ID for the ProII I'll
add it to the next release.) It also adds a "Sat" band for satellite QSOs
on FD, plus a feature called "Frequency Window By Band" which sets the
Frequency Window (Alt-F) to display the current frequencies by band rather
than by computer. This latter feature proved useful to the K8CC crew a
couple of weeks ago in the ARRL June VHF QSO Party where each computer had
more than one transmitter.
10.57 has been a couple of weeks in gestation, and ran the June VHF contest
without a hitch. The satellite band thing was just added this evening, but
this version should be pretty robust.
Radio Bookstore will have 10.57 tomorrow, and it will be on the DATOM web
site by early evening.
