You need to be selective about when to use the CALLSIGN UPDATE ENABLE.  It
works best with simple exchanges were it is easy for the program to 
detect a callsign in the exchange window.  The RST NAME QTH is not a
simple exchange and I never really intended to do the work to make 
the two compatible.

Can you send me the LOG.DAT file?  The rate report detects which hours
you were on for and reports those hours.  Somehow, it got confused
with your specific log.

I will look into that.

Can't offer much with them.

Maybe.  I actually find that sending BK is more like how people typically
send it.

Ugh.

I will look into this too.

It is sad when your software is more reliable than your antennas.
