My personal theory is that this is a 3-stage (at least) problem --
1. Something (RFI, a radio comm problem, or whatever) corrupts the value
for the current band that is kept in a transient variable.
2. That value causes the logging routine to write "NONCW" as the band/mode
for the QSO as it is put into the edit window.
3. If you don't fix it before it scrolls off, the routine that writes the
QSO to the log.dat file crashes when it encounters the "NONCW" QSO.
Tree?
