V18.36 11 September 2016
RSGB International DX Contest:
Updated for new rules and scoring (both sides).
http://www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2016/IntDX.shtml
Sharing Ports for CW and Rig Control:
This is a legacy of the time when some PCs had
only a single physical serial port. With USB
ports, there can be any number of virtual serial
ports. The option to share COM ports, using the
SHARE command, is discontinued.
Rig Control:
The POLLTIME and LINKTIME parameters are now based
directly on the bit rate selected for rig control.
As such, the commands are redundant.
SO2R support is discontinued.
QRS:
Semicolon gives an instant QRS, and a second one
restores normal CW speed. The QRS command has been
added to permit any chosen speed reduction from
10 to 30 percent. Thanks K1ESE.
This applies to both WinKey and SD's internal keyer.
With WinKey, however, it works only when CW speed is
controlled from the keyboard, not from WinKey's speed
pot. If necessary, use the POT command to toggle
control to the keyboard. Under keyboard control,
change speed with Page Up and Page Down.

If you find bugs in V18.36, send the details to
sduser@contesting.com. Older versions are not
supported, so please confirm that the problem
exists in V18.36.
Let me know if you need support for other contests.
