[WriteLog] Ver 11.06 Sweepstakes Module "Follow Me"

[Gary AL9A]

Mike,

Good question.  I had forgotten about this problem since last years SS.

I just checked the SS CW module under V11.06F and unfortunately the Follow 
Me button is still not functioning correctly.  All cluster spots for all 
bands are being passed to WL as though the All Bands button were checked 
instead of the Follow Me button.  Surely this can be fixed before SS?

If not, my planned work around would be to go into the VE7CC AR User 
interface and filter out all bands except the one I'm on.  When I change 
bands go back into VE7CC and change the band filters to only allow spots 
from the new band.  The problem with this is there is no way to clear out 
the already received  spot history info in WL without shutting down and 
restarting!  Other wise the old spots from the previous band will not 
disappear until they age and time out.  Not exactly user friendly.

I see on another post Steve is out of town until the 17th or so.  Perhaps he 
could address this issue for the reflector when he gets back.

73,
Gary AL9A
