I am LA7XK, Halvard.

I just downloaded the latest version of SD for possible use
during SAC SSB from Svalbard as JW5X.  I have tested the program during 
the IOTA test
and it seems to work ok here. I however suspect there are two bugs
in the handling of SAC worked from Scandinavia. I selected SAC Scandinavia
when I selected the contest.

1: Scandinavian stations incorrectly gives points and count as multipliers.
    According the SAC rule Scandinavian stations are only supposed to
    work stations outside Scandinavia and if they do work Scandinavians, 
they should not
    count as multipliers or give points. I have looked through .cty and .ini
    files and can not see how this is controlled.

2: All qso.s are given 3 points. According to the rules Scandinavian 
stations should receive
     2 points for stations in Europe and 3 point for stations outside 
Europe.


If the any of these problems can be fixed in one or more of the data 
files please let me know.

73 de Halvard, LA7XK
