I've updated SDC V11.14 (SD for the Commonwealth Contest).

    When you type a call that has been worked already,
    the band display, below the callsign, instantly
    shows the status of this station on all 5 bands.
    There's no need to touch any other key.

    The display is colour-coded as follows:

      Grey   - already worked on that other band.
      Red    - a dupe on the current band.
      White  - required on that/this band.
               If the band is the current band, the
               QSO will be a bonus if B is displayed
               above the call.
      Yellow - will be a bonus on that other band.

    The yellow bands stand out - you can't miss them.
    As this station will be a bonus on those bands,
    you can immediately plan to move him.

    Let's say you work VE4AB on 14026, and SDC shows
    you that you need him for a bonus on 15m.  You
    agree a frequency, say 21067.  Enter 21067 in the
    callsign field, and SDC QSYs the rig.  Enter "
    (quotes) to repeat and fill the callsign field
    with VE4AB, complete your QSO and press F10 twice
    to return to your run frequency - 14026.

    This is easier and faster to do than to describe.

NOTE:  SDC is not available for download from my website.
Anyone who wants SDC V11.14 should request it directly
by email.  It will be attached to a return email.

SD cannot be configured for the Commonwealth Contest.
