Message-ID: <8b65738f-07b5-38ec-c135-182abf0c2bb7@ei5di.com>

In SD V21.51, BERU QSOs were scored correctly but the total score 
remained at 0.

That's fixed in V21.51a at www.ei5di.com/sd/sdsetup.exe

A simpler option may be to get the updated SD.EXE (alone) from 
www.ei5di.com/sd/sdexe.zip

Hi Paul,

The English SD logging manual only downloads blank pages in word docx 
whereas the Italian version downloads in PDF fine. I'm running Win10 and 
tried with Chrome and Edge.

Is it me?

Thanks - there is a problem with the English manual at 
www.ei5di.com/sd/sd.pdf.? That will be fixed in a few minutes.

In the meantime, the manual is also included with the normal 
installation, and that one is OK.
