Hi Herb,
I don't think the Announce window is supposed to work in SS.  The problems
seems to me to be that there is no way to tell what section a station is
in by checking it's prefix.  I would think that the only fix would be to
require a specific remarks text in spots like we do for QSX on splits.  If
we did that, then Ken would have something he could program to.

This is my wild guess to the situation.
