             Release notes for TR Logging Program - Version 6.52
                              3 August 2000

Version 6.52 - Released on 3 August 2000.

 - Added PACKET SPOT KEY (default = `).  This key is used to automatically
   send the call in the call window, or the last call worked to the packet
   network.  The key was previously `, but can now be changed if you don't
   have that key on your keyboard.

 - Allowed SPACE for START SENDING NOW KEY command.  It was requested
   to be able to start sending CW with the SPACE BAR.  This will now
   be possible by putting START SENDING NOW KEY = SPACE in your config
   file.  Please note that this feature has not been tested during a
   contest and might have some unintended results.

 - Added PACKET SPOT DISABLE (false, Control-J).  When TRUE, the
   packet spot key will not work.

 - Added ability to program delay into DVK messages.  Use Control-C
   followed by DVKDELAY=xxxx and then Control-D in the message.
   xxxx is the number of milliseconds to delay.  You can program
   a Control-C when using the Alt-D message editor by pressing
   Control-P first and then Control-C.

 - Fixed up UKRAINIAN contest:
     - Now appears on contest menu.
     - Uses RST QSO NUMBER OR DOMESTIC QTC exchange.
     - Counts CQDXCC countries
     - Puts UR in as a domestic country.

 - Allowed 00 for Zone exchange in EU contest.  Fixed up remaining
   multiplier list to start at zero.


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.
