[SD-User] V17.55 Released

[Paul O'Kane]

V17.55  4 February 2015

WinKey- Speed Changes within Messages:
     Speed changes are now consistent and reliable,
     and the displayed WPM setting (WinKey speed pot)
     is updated immediately when the cursor is in an
     empty callsign field.  If a message is being
     played, the new WPM value is shown when playback
     is complete.

     Word Spacing - WinKey:  The installation default
     for a word space when creating SD.INI is now 6 dot
     units rather than 7, as the shorter word space is
     generally preferred for contesting.  For an
     existing SD.INI, you must change the value of the
     SD_WKBIT0 parameter to 1 to enable this feature.

REF Contest:
     Fixed a screen formatting error when editing
     district codes on previously logged QSOs.

HADX Contest:
     In V17.54, HA membership numbers were flagged as
     mults as they were logged.  However, the same
     thing should have happened when previous QSOs
     were edited. This caused some QSOs to be corrupted,
     although  they could be corrected using the audit
     (AUD) file.  Fixed, thanks EI2KA.

SDCHECK - QSO Rate Report:
     Fixed, thanks G4DDX.

SD is free from ei5di.com - please encourage other
contesters to try it.  One option that works well
is to leave a few words of support at eham.net.

You can see the reviews at

To add your own, follow the "add your own review"
link immediately above the most recent review. You
may need to register with eHam to do this.

_______________________________________


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 V17.55, please send me the
details.  Older versions are not supported, so
please confirm that the problem exists in V17.55.

Let me know if you have suggestions for changes,
additions, or support for new contests.

73,
Paul EI5DI
