I posted this over the weekend and had not heard
anything. Maybe got lost in the ARRL QRM. Anyone
with comments/thoughts?  Ken?

>I had a chance to try out last Friday CT 9.39 in preparation

>After entering 2 Q’s on 20M, then 2 Q’s on 10M, then 3 Q’s on
>15M, then 2 Q’s on 10M here is what the display looked like:

>1  20   TIME   CALL   SER#
>2  20   TIME   CALL   SER#
>3  10   TIME   CALL   SER#
>2  10   TIME   CALL   SER#
>5  15   TIME   CALL   SER#
>2  15   TIME   CALL   SER#
>3  15   TIME   CALL   SER#
>8  10   TIME   CALL   SER#
>4  10   TIME   CALL   SER#

>5  10   “Waiting for the next 10M Callsign”

>What CT looks like it is doing is as follows:
>
>1.) When it logs a Q from a different Station/Band
>    than the previous QSO it displays
>    a QSO # that is the cumulative total of all Q’s
>    made across all bands.
>2.) For subsequent Q’s from the same Station/Band, until
>    another Station/Band makes a QSO, it displays
>    the QSO # for just that band.
>
>I am not sure which is the intent of the program but
>my guess is that changing back and forth is not the design.
>
>Note that from what I could see this is just a display issue.
>The QSO line always displays the QSO number of the next
>QSO for that band, as is needed in WPX M/M where each
>band has its own serial number set. Also all the log files
>look ok when doing a WRITELOG.
