V18.18 4 February.
Super Check Partial files.
Added the template parameter "SCP_FILE" to specify
a custom SCP file for the corresponding event. This
parameter gives the name of a file to be loaded in
place of the default MASTER.DTA file - from
http://www.supercheckpartial.com - maintained and
supplied by K6TU.
FOC Marathon:
The FOC templates have been updated to load
FOCSD.SCP, a custom SCP file of FOC member calls
for the FOC Marathon and QSO Party. I used MEdit,
a free SCP utility program by VE3NEA, to create
FOCSD.SCP - supplied. MEdit is available from
http://www.dxatlas.com/medit/
The FOC reference file FOCSD.LST has been updated
to include special calls for the Marathon, and is
loaded automatically.
Reminder 1 - if, when typing a call, the SCP window
shows a single call, Up Arrow will instantly retrieve
the call and complete the logging line - unless, of
course, the QSO would be a dupe. No other contest
logger does this.
Reminder 2 - if you hear a member's number and type
it in the callsign field (no Space or Enter needed)
SD instantly displays the call and dupe-checks the
QSO. If not a dupe, press Enter to complete the
logging line - with Call and Number placed in the
correct fields. No other contest logger does this.
If a dupe, press Minus (-) to clear the QSO fields.
DEMO Version:
SD runs in demo mode if there is no key file, or
if the callsign used differs from the one in the key
file. Fixed some display issues caused by broken
code in V18.17 when running in this mode.
