   associated database is AGCW_HNY.DTB. Tnx F5TNI, F5IN & OM7ZZ.

- EU Sprint and DARC Xmas contests : The stats window is limited to
   one day only. Tnx DL6RAI.

- Added an option to show/hide an "Info" field for the DXPedition
   mode. That can be useful to enter such miscellaneous informations
   like the operator's name or QTH.

   See in the "option" menu. The operator can select which key
   can be used to access this field between SPACEBAR, "<" (or ">")
   and TAB. The "<" and ">" keys are actually always active.

- Stew Perry contest : The points column header was named "Mult"
   instead of "Pts" by error.

- Bugfix: IC751/761/781 was not getting frequecy from the radio.
   Tks I4UFH.

- Bugfix: with old Icom radios, it is necessary to send the MODE
   change before the FREQUENCY change for QSYing on a new frequency
   from the software. Tks I4UFH.

- Bugfix: the position of the cursor in a field was not memorized
   when pressing the space bar to switch to the next field. Fixed.

- Bugfix: In SO1R technique, SHIFT F1/F2/... commands were routing
   the messages to the secondary radio which is of course not correct.
   Fixed. Tks I4UFH.

- The summary broadcasting frames now contain a transactionID to
   maintain consistency among all the received frames for the client
   applications. The specifications of these frames have been updated
   in the document located here :

   http://download.win-test.com/utils/SummaryBroadcastingSpecs.txt

   A new network version (1.10) has been then released.

- The summary SCORE frame now includes the TIME-ON value, expressed
   in minutes. See the new specs in the link above.

- WAG Contest : Databases associated with this contest have been
   created :

   - WAG_DL.DTB for the German side of the contest
   - WAG_DX.DTB for the DX side of the contest

   These databases are available in the usual directory :
   http://download.win-test.com/databases/

- DXPed mode : The CheckCountry window (F10) now displays the current
   country status on other bands. To check if the current callsign
   has been worked on the other bands and modes, use the CheckCallsign
   window (F9). Tnx F5JSD.

- CheckCallsign wnd (F9) : Worked bands and modes count of the current
   callsign is now displayed in the top-left area of the window.

- Log window : After using the tab key to jump to the sent RST,
   the cursor is now positionned on the S part of the report.

- CW : SmartCorrection : If the modified suffix has one letter only,
   the whole callsign is sent. Tnx ops @ TM2Y.

- CW : SmartCorrection : If the original and the modified suffixes
   both include "/" characters and they only differ after the slash
   character, this remaining part will be sent.

   Ex : Original = SP1AAA/2 - Modified = SP1AAA/3 => "/3" will be
   sent only.
