Used 2xPC v6.05 this weekend also. *NO* crashes or major problems.

Did notice the "losing count" ... was DIRECTLY related to ME using
the ALT-Y command to delete a QSO and NOT doing the same on the
other PC ... that's a "feature" I'd like to see "fixed" someday ...
Delete the Q on one PC, the others delete it also, or make corrections !

Like AFTER you hit RETURN and realize that the QSO info you just heard
in your head, does NOT match what you just put in the log from using
the *.DTA 'feature' ... then it's scramble time to fix the log(s) ...

This was my first time out using a *.DTA and found myself saying
COOL and also saying CURSES as I did the above dance a time or two.

I let TR create my LOGCFG.DAT this time out, and still noted some
"trash" on certain calls when checking callsigns ... not as bad as
with my 'old' LOGCFG.DAT, but it's still there ... but I'm getting
used to it ... it's a minor nit ... purely a visual thing ...

Only other "gee it would be really neat" is a TIMER as to how many
hours have I been on ? But this one has NO easy solution as many have
discussed it on here before ... Guess that's why the PC/software stills
"needs" a human op ... for now ...

All in all, V6.05 worked very well for the IARU and NAQP outings !

Next Up ... NAQP SSB - 16th August - Be there !
