I had a scoring discrepancy between the Band Summary and the Summary
Sheet in the BARTG RTTY Sprint. If anyone is interested in seeing a
screen shot that shows a portion of the Summary Sheet in Wordpad
overlying the Writelog screen showing the Band Summary, it can be viewed
at http://www.qsl.net/wa9als/score.htm
In my case the QSO total was only different by ONE, but the score total
was the same in both summaries. I agree with Dick - The Band Summary
and the Summary Sheet should agree, or I could ask, which one is
correct??
At the time I noticed this, I sent an email to Wayne. However, after
experiementing with how to show this tonight, what I sent Wayne might
have been an HTML email attachment that might have arrived as a blank
HTML document, and hence no response from him - appropriately!
