             Release notes for TR Logging Program - Version 6.51
                              1 August 2000

Version 6.51 - Released on 1 August 2000.

 - When TAB MODE = CONTROLF, I also made Shift-Tab work as Control-A.
   This will make Shift-Tab move you to the next field to the left.

 - Added OHIO QSO PARTY.  Make sure MY STATE = OH before your contest
   statement in the LOGCFG.DAT file to make it work for Ohio stations.

 - Added AP SPRINT contest (Asia-Pacific Sprint).

 - Made the ITU Zone default for VE2 zone 4 (it was zone 9).

 - Updated VE multiplier names in most of the .DOM files.  The actual
   names are used instead of prefixes.

 - Added CALL WINDOW POSITION (NORMAL or UP).  The defaul it NORMAL.
   There is no Control-J support for this command.  It will move the
   call window and the information to the left of it up one line.  It
   also changes the color of the call window to match the editable
   window.  This makes the band/mode/date/time/QSO number and Call
   Window look like they are part of the editable log window.

 - Exit editable log edit with you press the down-arrow key while at
   the bottom entry.  Don't forget about the CONFIRM EDIT CHANGES
   command if you want to exit without the Save Changes prompt.

 - Made default RST work for RSTAndPostalCode exchange (ROPOCCO test).
   It was being left blank unless you entered it into the exchange
   window.

 - Added LOG WITH SINGLE ENTER command (control-J - false).  This will
   act just as if you pressed RETURN to answer a station and then
   Control-Enter to log the station instantly without sending the
   QSL MESSAGE.

 - Fixed wrong IARU zone default for MyZone.


Version 6.50 - Released on 4 June 2000.

 - Fixed up Cabrillo for WPX and other contests.

 - Updated All Asian with new QSO point structure.

 - Made some refinements to the procedure to add a call to the band map
   to try and eliminate some run time #204 failures seen in the WPX
   contest by several stations.  This isn't guaranteed to fix the problem
   since I wasn't able to reproduce it.

 - Fixed some calls disappearing from call window when hitting RETURN.
   This was because I had left a debug message in the code that was added
   when working on some SCP issues - probably in 6.48.

 - Fixed Band/mode remaining mult window format when mult by mode.

 - Fixed ASK FOR FREQUENCIES with no input from crashing program.


Version 6.49 - Released on 2 May 2000

 - Fixed garbage when deleting last entry in band map.

 - Fixed ARRL DX Cabrillo routine to support DX stations and multi two.

 - Fixed dupes in possible calls from SCP.

 - Fixed runtime error 201 at end of POST UEA or UEFF.

 - Fixed dupes showing up in possible calls from SCP (broken in 6.48).

 - Fixed RT 201 at end of POST UEA or UEFF (broken in 6.48).

 - Improved the LocateCall procedure to instantly process the same call
   if it was the last call processed.  This results in faster performance
   during the logging process as this routine is called several times.

Version 6.48 - Released 17 February 2000.

 - Fixed Cabrillo format for Sprint.

 - Fixed Icom bugs in LOGK1EA.  There were two problems - one that prevent
   most of the radios from working at all.  Data could be sent to the radio
   but not received.  Some newer radios might have worked okay - but
   possibly with wrong mode information.

 - Tried to improve operation when operating split with the band map.

 - Added WestCentralFlorida section (WCF) to ARRL sections.

 - Fixed runtime error 204 at 0CB9:017B (in SCP routine).  This was
   never in a released version.

 - Added load of country file when doing log prompt so the country stuff
   gets initialized okay.  This was causing problems for some contests
   where the QSO point method wouldn't work right until you restarted
   the program.

 - Updated TenTenQSO Point Method.

 - More memory conserving techniques - frees up about 27K.

 - New TRMASTER stuff to fix dupes and allow lots more calls in POST.
   Most, or all, reported issues with adding files to the database
   should be resolved by this.
