[RTTY] SP RTTY Cabrillo

Hi all,

OK, I "think" I have figured it out!

I may not have correctly installed the SM6SRW module, although I can't
figure out why or how.

I tried doing a "repair" on the module (under Win7 32bit), and was told that
it failed as it could not find the MSI part.
That gave me a clue, and a check of the ever-useful AA5AU resource says that
you need to use the legacy installer with this module!

I have not yet tried it, but will do that tomorrow when I have a little more
time to play.

At first, I could not figure out why it worked last year, but not this. I
can only assume that this was down to me starting out with a new PC this
year, and installing everything from scratch. I can only assume I did not
fully install the SM6SRW module at the time. 
For this contest, I used the SPDX Contest, but I now think that there should
have been an SP_RTTY module to choose from too, and I did not have that.

So, Gary, and any others that don't have the Cabrillo, you can either try
out the legacy installer (full instructions at www.rttycontesting.com) or
you can wait for me to try it out and let you know what happens!

73 all, and Happy Easter

Phil GU0SUP
