I used 5.70 in the VHF contest this wknd.  Everything worked fine except
for three small things:

1) The persistent problem I have with the date not changing at 0000Z
(appears to be a strange compatibilty problem with Compaq laptops--anyone
else have this problem?) 

2) Lockup when doing a forced log save to disk (Alt-F).  Probably another
problem with Compaq laptops and PCMCIA-interfaced disk drive.

3) Seems to give points when you work a dupe.  Ran the log quickly through
POST, but that created another problem of marking all the rover Qs as
dupes.  Haven't had time to look at this any further.  Still stuck at the
office tonight, so don't have all the details in front of me.  Just wanted
to caution folks to double check the scoring before sending the log in.
