V20.06 26 July 2018

IOTA Contest:
   Formatting error in IOTA references corrected. For example,
   EU5 was logged as EU5, and is now logged correctly as EU005.

   IOTA.LST has been updated for 2018, to include announced
   DXpeditions. It is loaded automatically for this contest.

   Country reference file SDIOTA.CTY updated.

ESM Switching;
   Added alternatives to the Apostrophe key for toggling
   ESM, and to the Grave key for toggling between RUN and
   S&P.  The Alt key is used, rather than Ctrl (as in N1MM)
   because SD uses the Ctrl key solely to enter Keyboard
   mode in CW events.

   Alt-M toggles ESM  (left-Alt only).
   Alt-R or Alt-S toggles between Run & S&P modes.
   Note: Alt-R does not assert RUN, and Alt-S does not
   assert S&P. They simply toggle the mode when ESM is
   enabled.

   Left-Alt must be used, as Right-Alt has been a long-term
   alternative to Ctrl (keyboard mode) for some non-UK/US
   keyboards where Ctrl does not work as expected.

Changing Band - with no Rig Control:
   Enter a frequency in the Callsign field (in kHz) to
   change to the relevant  band.  For example, 14018
   changes to 20m.  Note that, in Cabrillo QSO records,
   the frequency logged will be the lower band edge
   frequency.  This is an alternative to the B20 or 14M
   commands (which are retained).

   With rig control enabled, the rig QSYs to 14108. Decimal
   frequencies are supported - for example 14108.6.
