Just had another gentleman ask me why I didn't use ver 10.02.008. Told him I
had not been able to get it to work for me when I tried it when it first came
out. Even though I am using a modern PC it would hang up on me. His question
prompted me to try to troubleshoot 10.02.008 some more and tell him what
problems I was having. I started off with a fresh download of 10.02.008 and
found it was working for me now and it did not have the IARU Test DUPE problem
as in 9.92.001. So I guess problem solved for me as I will now be using
10.02.008 in future contests but the problem is still there for people using
ver 9.
