Hi Andy et al
Thanks for the info about TR - we first used CT in 1992 and sort of stuck
with it, despite its flaky networking it had/has many good features. We
never really tried TR, going straight to Writelog after CT, but only used WL
in IOTA once with limited success. I'm writing a web-page about 'Computer
networking for contesting' which will appear on the GM7V website soon.
Writelog - a correction to what I said the other day. Matt M0MAT has drawn
my attention to the 'Check Call' screen in Writelog which seems to display
the needed information quickly. See www.gm7v.com/WLIOTA.htm for a
sample screen-shot. Thanks Matt.
Disqualifications - thanks Keith GM4YXI for correcting me on this - I'm glad
to hear that a high-profile station has been DQed - this is long overdue -
my first complaints about this were in 1998 after CQ WW SSB, then again in
2000 from GZ7V. You feel as if you've wasted a lot of effort and 48 hours if
you hear someone cheating but nothing seems to be being done about it. Well
done K3EST, K1AR and team !
