D'oh! I've never actually seen the bandmap before (all previous contest
logging has been done with monochrome or CGA monitors, just recently had
a club member donate a VGA monitor for our station) and of course there are no
screen shots in the manual I have :-) so I guess I was just wasn't thinking
about where it went. And actually, now that I think about it, I'm not even
really sure what the bandmap does, frankly, but I guess we'll find out in the
contest, hi!
> What, specifically, are you having a problem with?
Well, I kind of expected the program to start up and occupy the whole screen,
which threw me off is all.
> Trying to help,
Tnx! Live and learn I guess.
