Thanks to Larry, this version does now support the CQWW RTTY.

Version 3.3.5 (Sep 20, 2006), release datas
-------------------------------------------

- CAUTION : New network protocol version 1.15 released

   Reminder : If you use WT in a networked environment, you must have
   the same WT version on all machines !

- Added support for the Yaesu FTDX-9000 radio. Tks VE6SH, OM7ZZ.

- Added support for the Yaesu FT-2000 radio.

- Added support for the Yaesu FT-857. Tks M0CRY.

- Icom radios: CI-V mode is back again as an option (you can now
   decide if you want to poll the radio or use the CI-V mode). This
   option is available in the "Interface configuration" window. Tks
   W9ZRX, K3LR.

- Programming an Icom radio is now more reliable (a check is done to
   ensure that the radio got the protocol) and more faster. Tks
   W9ZRX, K3LR.

- New option to start (resp. stop) wtDxTelnet when WT is started
   (resp. stopped) automatically in the Options / DX cluster menu.
. wtDxTelnet *must* be installed in the same directory as WT (which
   is its default installation directory).

- New RESTART text command, to (guess what ?) restart Win-Test.

- QSX are now parsed from the packet stream and are handled in the
   bandmaps and the DX cluster spots wnd (Alt-A). The split freq
   is also handled when spots are entered by the op with Ctrl-Enter
   (or Ctrl-J). Tnx K3LR.

- CQWW Contest : RTTY leg implemented. This implementation is not
   totally complete but is fully usable to take part in the competition
   It will be improved later, especially when the new databases designs
   (including multi-field guessing) will be implemented.

- Child wnds : Font size : New menu items added to get larger and
   smaller font by one point, and a new "Other..." item to set a
   non-listed font size. Tnx W9ZRX @ K3LR.

- CheckPartial and N + 1 files can now be different of the "database"
   DTB file associated with the contest.

   WT now accept SCP (stands Super Check Partial) plain text files
   (one callsign per line - no ordering required), DTA CT files and
   DTB files for compatibility.

   The preferred format is SCP (plain text).

   Furthermore, WT now also accepts specialised CheckPartial files by
   band and by mode for a given contest. This improves log accurancy
   and QSO rates.

   Please, read :

   http://download.win-test.com/files/checkPartial/%23_READ_ME_%23.TXT

   for more informations.

- CheckPartial (F8) and N+1 (F12) wnds : New contextual menu item to
   list the used files for the searches.

- WAE Contest : EU Side : The new multiplier warning now claims "New
   multiplier" instead of "New prefix". The multiplier indicator in the
   bandmap status has also been changed from C (Country) to M (Mult).
   Tnx DL1MGB.

- Bugfix : SAC contest : In M/M category only, the serial numbering is
   different for each band. Tnx SM6DYK.

- Bugfix : SAC contest : The CW variable $SERIAL wasn't included in
   the default messages. Tnx I2WIJ and F5IN.

- Bugfix : Internal CW keyer : If a message was interrupted by ESC
   while a burst was sent, the speed didn't revert to the original
   speed. Tnx OH2UA, OH1JT and F6IFY.

- Bugfix: IC-7800 was not controlled as expected. Fixed. Tks W9ZRX,
   K3LR.

- Bugfix: under CW autosending mode, pressing ESC was disabling
   this feature in any case which was not always wished. From now,
   pressing ESC will disable autosending mode as soon as the key
   in not pressed when the radio is transmitting or if the caret
   is not in the callsign field. Tks ES5TV, UA6AA.
