Ken has placed a beta test of 9.37 on the registered users' web site:

	http://www.contesting.com/ctvault/ct937.zip

This version should be compable with ARRL FD 1998 rules.  It should also
fix the LSB problem when CT is used with ICOM IC-756 in phone contests
(I'll be checking this myself later).

I have attached the release notes.  Please direct all inquiries to the
reflector or Ken directly at <kwolff@ultranet.com>
