Only a couple of minor things that showed up when preparing the summary
sheets........The summary sheet came up with the correct grand total score
but the supporting documentation above it didn't make any sense......

Here is what the score calculation showed on the summary sheet....verbatim...

(948 CW QSO PTS +  1152 SSB QSO PTS) x 2 POWER MULTIPLIER + 200 BONUS = 2300

My math says that formula would equal 4400......?

And in the breakdown above the total, it would take the CW QSO's and multiply
them by 4 and show that as the CW QSO points for each band........That I felt
is a little misleading....To me it should have the CW QSO's x 2 = CW QSO
points and then used THAT number in the formula.....then the formula and
result would agree......Minor deal but Field Day Summary sheets calulations
are not new.....

Or even better, why not make the summary sheet look somewhat like the actual
ARRL summary sheet.....?

Hopefully I just missed a correction or update issued for FD for 9.27.......

Also, as another minor item...What were the choices to be inserted in the
information sheet for POWER? The manual just showed an A but didn't elaborate
on what to use for 5W, 150W, or hi-power.....A, B, C, etc?
