Folks,

I've uploaded RoverLog version 2_2_8 to http://roverlog.2ub.org/.  The
improvements over version 2_2_7 are as follows:

- Made RoverClk background colors configurable in inied.tcl.  Goofy.
- When comparing QSOs for Rover checking, FN13 vs. FN13ec would cause
RoverLog to prompt to log as a Rover.  This is now fixed.
- Added a manual grid field to the calculator window to allow bearing
calculation without disturbing the QSO entry fields.
- Added advance warning for skeds to warn you BEFORE each sked comes up.
- Fixed the network logging UTC offset error for received messages.
- Looked for WinKey problem only playing part of a CW keyer message. 
Cannot find a problem here.  Need help to reproduce.
- Disabled resizing RoverLog windows unless there is a meaningful way to
do so.
- Made resizable windows expand/contract list or text areas.
- Added note in manual suggesting turning up the Auto Save Interval for
large stations that experience lagging performance later in the contest.
 If you set the Auto Save Interval to 5 instead of 1, the log will be
saved with every 5th QSO vs. every QSO.  This should prevent a lot of
slow down.  Note that if you change the interval to a number larger than
1, you need to be careful to save your log before exiting.

Please send feedback to tmayo1 @t rochester.rr.com.

Thanks,
Tom, N1MU.
