I had an interesting oddity occur with SD in the RSGB 80m CC last night. In 
fact I had this happen once before - and I'm 95% sure it was in the 80m CC that 
time too.

What happened was then, on hitting the ENTER key after entering a callsign, the 
cursor (correctly) moved to the incoming serial field. But instead of this 
field being blank, it contained a serial number - and I am almost certain that 
it was a serial received in a previous QSO, rather than just a totally random 
number. This could be cleared easily using the back space key but was a bit 
tedious! I did try to see if there was any pattern in the spurious serial 
numbers but couldn't discern any. Anybody seen this before, or can advise what 
I'm doing wrong?! The setup was SD v14.23 used with Vista and WK USB.

I've tried to provoke SDC to do the same but haven't managed to get it to do 
so. That's probably just as well, as Steve G3UFY and I are using this set up 
for GB5CC in BERU this weekend, and any recurrence might be an embarrassment ! 

Anyhow, any input from the collected brainpower on this list would be 
welcome......


73,
