[SD-User] V15.05 Released

[Paul O'Kane]

V15.05          15th May 2010

Commonwealth Contest:
    SD now directly supports the RSGB Commonwealth
    contest.  SDC is discontinued, and is no longer
    supported.

    As callsigns are typed, the country/band
    analysis below the callsign reflects the
    correct bonus status at all times (blue=bonus),
    and the top RHS window shows the status,
    for the current band, for all Commonwealth
    areas in the corresponding continent,
    making it easy to spot wanted bonuses.

    Serial and HQ may be logged as a single
    field. For example, 24HQ, followed by Enter,
    is logged as 024 HQ.

    Edits of previous QSOs which flag or unflag
    HQ stations do not always score correctly -
    in terms of updating other QSOs which may
    themselves need to be flagged or unflagged
    as bonus QSOs.  However, all QSOs are
    rescored correctly when SD is restarted.

TIMES Template Parameter:
    The TIMES parameter indicates the number
    of times each multiplier or bonus (country
    or district) counts.  The default is 1.

    In the template file for the Commonwealth
    Contest, TIMES is set to three - the first
    three QSOs with each Commonwealth area
    count as bonuses.
    
Yuri Gagarin Contest:
    Revised template supplied for the latest
    rules.
