V17.00 12th March 2013
Band Logged:
With rig control disabled, V16.13 logged
all QSOs on the initial band - regardless of
the band shown on screen. Fixed.
Added an independent Band indicator at the
end of each QSO record (1 = 10m, 2 = 15m etc).
If there is ever a conflict between Frequency
and Band in an individual QSO, the Band takes
precedence when the file is reloaded. The
Band indicator is included in audit file
records.
Commonwealth Contest:
Serial and HQ (where applicable) may now be
entered as a single field. For example,
24HQ, followed by Enter, is logged as 024
in the Serial field and HQ in the HQ field.
Quick Memory - F10:
When you use Minus to clear the logging
line, the callsign is stored in the Quick
Memory Table, and may be retrieved later
with F10.
When rig-control is enabled and working,
the corresponding frequency is held also.
This may be used as a manual Band Map.
F10 displays the Quick Memory table. Use
the arrow keys to select an entry, and F10
(or Enter) to retrieve it to the logging
line. Your rig is switched to the correct
band as necessary.
If rig control is enabled (non-zero COM
port assigned) but is not working for any
reason, arbitrary frequencies will be
stored. They have no significance and no
effect, because rig control is not working.
Callsigns may still be restored to the
logging line, but there will be no band
change.
When rig-control is disabled, with the COM
port set to zero, callsigns alone are
stored. Again, they may be selected and
restored.
If you're not using rig control, you should
use the PORTS command to set your Radio 1
control port to 0.
A reminder that, with rig control enabled,
moving a station to another band for a
multiplier QSO is fast and simple with SD.
Enter the agreed frequency to QSY the rig.
Enter "Q" to repeat the callsign, log the
QSO then press F10 twice to return to your
previous frequency. This is quicker to do
than to describe - so long as you have
automatic antenna switching and no amp to
retune.
