>>Does anybody know if this is repeatable?
It is so easy to repeat it's unbelievable. I started a new file and QSO
number 11 which was QSO number 1 but on a different band. QSO number one was
5F QSO number eleven magically became 2A. Deleting out the erroneous info
left the field blank. It no longer filled in that QSO automatically.

>>Also, if you work the station a third time, does it fill in bad stuff, or
the corrected data you entered?
The third time gets it right and I even tried it on a fourth band and it got
it right.

>>Has anybody seen this happen on CT/WIN? Does it happen on CT/DOS?
All my contests and testing are in CT/DOS only.


Hope this helps. I was really shocked to see how easily I could duplicate
the problem.

Does anybody know if this is repeatable? IE, if you press the space bar and
it fills in something bogus, if you delete the bogus info and try again does
it fill in the same bad stuff?

Also, if you work the station a third time, does it fill in bad stuff, or
the corrected data you entered?

Has anybody seen this happen on CT/WIN? Does it happen on CT/DOS?

Thanks - Ken
