Yes, I think that this bug has been mentioned b4 :) I used 9.70 this weekend
and didn't see that behavior, so I believe that it is fixed. The SCP window
however, does seem a bit narrow and part of a column is cut off. Maybe the
calls were in that part of the window. I am sure that you must have worked
many more stations than I did and the window must have been quite full of
worked stations.
