Scott,

The module seems to take the DXCC prefix instead
of the call area prefix.

ie: ve1op = ve instead of ve1
ie: d44b = d4 instead of d44

However, you can trick it into scoring properly 
by entering your callsign in the contest setup
as "ABCD" instead of "VE1OP".  Give it a try.
You just have to edit the cabrillo log before
submitting it.

I can make a fix for this.... but obviously not
in time for the contest.  Its something the beta
testers did not pick up on, and neither did I.

Just downloaded 10.46G...Nice to see RSGB Commonwealth
Contest now 
there...

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but the module will
not give me any 
points for working a VE station...I know I cant work
another VE1, but 
it 
will not give me any points for any other VE call area
either...

In the setup screen where it says "Enter
Commonwealth", I entered 
VE1...I assume that is to let the program know I am a
VE1...Is there 
something else that I should put in there ? Or am I
missing something 
here ? Maybe the program assumes all VE's are in the
same call area ?
