[WriteLog] More Writelog contest wizard questions

[Rick Stoneking]

Pat,

Thanks for the info!

One more question regarding the band/freq/mode issue.  When a user selects 
the freq/mode dialog and there are multiple listings for a given band - 
does it matter which one they select in the band list box?  i.e. if 20m is 
listed twice, and the first one is (per the *dat.cpp file) is the Phone 
entry and the second is the CW entry, if they click on the first one, and 
then click the CW radio button, does WL handle that correctly? I am 
assuming that it does, but I just want to double check.

Thanks again and 73,
Rick
