Got it, thanks, Don and also Don Deufox (direct) for the answers. Working
from memory, what I thought was dB was really Bd in the "DGTL" column.
It all makes sense now, not for the TARA, but for the ARRL RTTY Roundup,
where there is a plaque given to the highest PSK31 score according to the
rules. I tried the mode and indeed, "BPSK" appeared in the column.
I looked at my previous contest logs and found I have never entered the
Roundup test, so the column was a surprise to me.
Hope to work you all in both tests.
73, Don W6FFH (another Don)
