• If you were using TRP and the Control-L feature, with big logs, you might of had some problems after looking at the end of the log. This is now fixed.

• TRP is no longer distributed with the updates. If you want it, get it off the BBS or by special request.

• Allow negative input for HOUR OFFSET with Control-J.

• If you have sent a CW message with a Control-B in it, then go into search and pounce, you might get the first letter of the callsign twice in the call window. After that, the cursor edit commands are confused and you may end up with a bunch of garbage in the window. This has been fixed in this release.

• Some zone overrides in the .CTY file were not working. This is now fixed.

• Made the ninth call district in VE count as zone 5 or 9 instead of zero.

• Added VERSION display in Control-J (this is read only!).

• Added Branch Zones to legal zone multipliers in LOGCFG.DAT.

• Added BAND MAP CALL WINDOW ENABLE (also in Control-J, default = TRUE). This controls if the callsign and exchange for in the band map will be put in the call window.

• If a stations call and exchange are in the call window, and you start typing in a callsign, it will be cleared out and what you type will be in the window. Also, the band map will not over-write anything in the call window that you have entered. It will only put information in there if the call window is empty, or if the information in there came from the band map.

• Added Alt-G to Control-J. This will write all of the changes you have made in a given Control-J session to the LOGCFG.DAT file.

• Fixed bug with some GetDXQTH (NAQP non NA countries counting as mults).

• Improved CW Memory defaults for NAQP.

• Added prompt and warning message if program is waiting for RST input.

• Numerous spelling and format cleaups (mostly in help).

• Added SCP MINIMUM CHARACTERS. If > 0, then SCP happens during call entry.

• Fixed zone override in CTY files (with brackets) not always working.

• Made band map update instantly to band/mode changes from Alt-B/V/M.

• Slowed down 1000 count DVP loop to 3 milliseconds per second.

• Fixed error messages if country files not found.

• Added ADD DOMESTIC COUNTRY command (with CLEAR). This allows you to redefine which countries are considered "domestic" as opposed to DX, and thus use the domestic multiplier procedures. For example:

  
  DOMESTIC COUNTRY = CLEAR   ; Clears the existing
                               domestic list
  DOMESTIC COUNTRY = OE      ; Adds OE to list (use same
                               ID as the .cty file has).

• Added ASK FOR FREQUENCIES flag. If you don’t have an interfaced radio, this decides if the program will prompt you for frequencies.

• Added DOMESTIC FILENAME command for LOGCFG. Finally lets you specify a different file than the default. Make sure this comes after your CONTEST statement.

• Fixed POST’s multiplier check (whew!). It doesn’t crash and is actually fun to use. It was broken when I added the domestic files.

• Fixed ARRL 160 DomesticFileName (was none).

• Fixed program crash when using ` key to send packet spots. Also when sending spots or messages over the network.

• SHIFT KEY ENABLE wasn’t really available, but is now. Allows RIT and QSY functions for shift keys to be enabled/disabled.

• Made INSTALL ask to be run from disk or directory with program files on it.

• Eliminated possible Runtime 201 error if NoMode with visible dupesheet.

• Even better SS exchange hacker (tested.. use it!).

• Fixed minor format error possibility with remaining country display.

• Created default remaining country list if none found in .CTY file.

• Added TEN TEN contest.

• Added "TEN TEN" QSO POINT METHOD.

• Added simulator support for SS.

• Made install 2.1 ask about overwriting .CTY files.

• Made \log\name be the first choice if another NAMES.CMQ file is found.

• Make remaining mults use index bytes instead of strings. This results in much more capacity (300 domestic, 200 DX) and less memory used.

• Added SCP FILENAME command. Use this to indicate the name of the file you want to use. You can enter the full path name, or just the filename if it is in the directory you are in, or pointed to by your PATH statement.

• Fixed HILIGHT choice for REMAINING MULT DISPLAY MODE in LOGCFG.DAT.

• Change REMAINING DOM MULT DISPLAY to REMAINING MULT DISPLAY MODE. It now affects all remaining multiplier displays (DX, Domestic and Zone).

• Note the command LITERAL DOMESTIC QTH is not in the manual. This allows the domestic QTHs to be shown in the log just as entered. If FALSE, the filtered domestic multiplier shown in the *.DOM file is used instead.
