[WriteLog] New SCC Module

[Gary AL9A]

Hi Dick,

My SCCRtty.dll file in WriteLog\Programs is dated 02/18/2004.  Apparently 
the new module uses the same dll?

I already had my SCC contest log setup before Bernd made his announcement. 
After installing the new SCC version I started my contest log which seemed 
to run alright at first.  I made a trial entry into the log and got an error 
message about there being no multiplier module available for this log and 
would I like to select a new module.  I figured my existing log was looking 
for the old SCC multiplier module that was removed during the install so I 
exited WriteLog and then restarted it and chose Start a new log.  When the 
list of contest modules came up I again selected the SCC RTTY contest and 
the module opened.  I then imported my RTTY messages from the first log so I 
didn't have to do them over again and then saved the new log with the same 
name to overwrite the original one.  A test entry into this log showed the 
multipliers worked correctly.

Don't worry about the old date on your SCCRtty.dll file.  If the new module 
works correctly let it be.

73,
