[WriteLog] Fw: ARRL 160 Contest

[Clay Melhorn]

Hi Gary,

I had a similar problem during sweepstakes.

I had some serious RF issue that caused me to lose com a few times and a screwy number entered for freq and of course the "red B"  showed up.

I re-initialized the com and manually corrected the freq but the B never did go away.

The final log translated to cabrillo and the qso was in there.

I am guessing the B stayed as a marker in case you want to go back later even though the correction had been made just to check that the change was correct only now you're (not in the heat of the battle) so to speak.  Sounds logical to me anyway.

 

BTW: nice to work you in SS, gud sigs...
