[SD-User] V17.47 Released

[Paul O'Kane]

V17.47 31 October 2014

Zones in CQWW:
     While logging, SD pre-fills the zones.  For
     countries and call areas with multiple zones,
     the pre-filled values are now more accurate.
     Thanks 5B4AIZ.

SDCHECK:
     Fixed the Multiplier Summary and Print File
     options.  To test them on earlier .ALL files
     (before V17.47), load the .ALL file first
     with SD V17.47 - otherwise country mults may
     not be listed.


V17.46  29 October 2014

RSGB Club Calls:
     Fixed Cabrillo QSO records.  Thanks G3SWC.

Unwanted QSOs:
     When you log a QSO that you didn't intend to
     log, here are the options for removing it.

     If it was the QSO that has just been logged,
     with no other QSOs logged in the meantime,
     the ZAP command is the best option.

     If it was an earlier QSO, add /ZAP or /Z to
     the callsign, or change it to your own call.
     The QSO will be removed next time the log is
     loaded with SD.  QSOs with /ZAP or /Z or "own
     call" are ignored by SDCHECK.


V17.45  23 October 2014

UKEICC 80m Contests:
     The file UKEICC.LST is supplied and loaded at
     startup.  When you type a matching callsign
     the grid square is pre-filled.

     In doing this, SD looks for, and extracts,
     any 4-character grid square field in the
     reference data for the callsign - regardless
     of its position.

LZ Open:
     Fixed Exchange Sent in ESM S&P mode. Thanks
     SM0OY.

WAG Contest:
     Fixed broken code which caused DOKs to be
     displayed incorrectly, even though they were
     correct on file.


V17.44  8 October 2014

Ctrl Keys for CW Mode:
     They have no effect when no keying port has been
     assigned.  Previously, they had the potential to
     cause problems when other applications were running
     at the same time as SD.

Band Analysis - under Callsign.
     This analysis, with respect to bands already worked,
     did not always indicate all relevant bands for calls
     that were, or would be, dupes on the current band.
     Fixed.

_______________________________________


The simplest way to download or update SD is to
click on the "SD by EI5DI" logo at ei5di.com.

When you install a new version of SD, you may have
to adjust the size of the default window to fill
your screen. If necessary, do this for both SD and
SDCHECK.

Click on the title bar, or the SD icon, at the top
LHS of the window and select Properties, then Font.
If you have a widescreen (16:9) monitor, select the
Lucida Console font.  For a 4:3 monitor, select the
Consolas font (not available on XP).  Then choose
whatever size of font you prefer.  SD's window
expands or contracts in direct proportion to the
chosen font size.

If you find bugs in V17.47, please send me the
details - pokane at ei5di dot com. Older versions
are not supported, so please confirm that the
problem exists in V17.47.

Please let me have your suggestions for changes
or additions, or support for new contests.

73,
Paul EI5DI
