[WriteLog] 11.01F Oddness

Eric,

I just installed V11.01 yesterday and haven't had a chance to play with it 
yet - maybe tonight? :)  I too have seen the weird frequencies flashing in 
the Band Map on earlier versions of WL.  However, I seem to think this 
usually happens when I'm tuning up and down the band with the VFO.  I don't 
recall seeing WL do this while just sitting there calling CQ or during a 
run.  I've never seen one of these weird frequencies in my log.  I will have 
to pay close attention to this for a bit.

As for the Mult window being too far off screen you can't reach the top bar 
to drag it into a new position...  I've had this before too and have had 
some luck doing the following.  Right click on the Mult window icon in the 
Tool Bar at the bottom of the screen.  A menu box will open and one of the 
options says "Move".  Click on Move and then move the mouse cursor to a new 
position on the desktop and left click.  Sometimes the missing window will 
reposition itself to the location of the mouse cursor.  Sometimes I have to 
try several times to get it to work.

No advice at all on the GetScores problem.

73,
Gary AL9A
