Back from IU4HQ 20ssb station, and as usual WT was rocky !!

We were networked using a free VPN software over internet.

We didn't had glitch with the software, but I had features/issues to point
out ...

1st : in a MM category it could be useful to setting the color of the QSOs
in the entry window, setting the different color with the different
networked PC. This is useful when you need to edit YOUR QSO that is shifted,
far away due the high traffic, you can find it quickly , ( this means i.e.
red for 20m, black for 40m and so on ... )

2nd: Objective ( Target ) by band, is really a must in an MM where every one
want to compare with he own previous Objective in the same band.

3rd : In the Worked Zone ( even ITU or CQ ) a click or shift click on the
green mark that show or move the cursor on the first QSO with the clicked
zone, at least a tooltip window ... Other interesting function is to click
or shift click on the zone number to know the same information of Shift F10
..... Why are the ITU Zones from 0 to 9 with the 50th an 90th columns alone
? More better from 1 to 10 ??

4th : Aestetic issue in a mixed mode the report are not alligned right
between CW and SSB reports, can be alligned ??

5th: When the "Warn I am Spotted"is marked WT  check only if the call of the
spot match the log call regardless the band, in this way in a HQ stations
with same call scatterd over the country and different bands, when show up
the notify that you has been spotted  you don't know who is because everyone
receive with notify, better is to check also the band and notify only if
match both ( call AND band ).

6th: In several windows ( ALT Z, ALT M , Check Multiplier, Check Call etc.),
the option of selecting one or more bands to view is really annoing when the
All Band is selected ( and greyed ) , forcing you to unselect the needed
band and reselect the Invert do show the bands needed. Isn't it better that
the ALL selection in enabled also when all band are selected and each band
is unselected so you can in only one pass selected the needed band selecting
it from the unchecked bands ? ( Clear  ? no ? I will try to explain better
if no clear !! )

7th: Why the Check Callsign window has dots in the titles and don't show the
Callsign even checked ?

8th: Question without answer, can each WT into a WAN network receiving spots
only from his DXtelnet installed in the same PC without broadcast the spots
and the command sended inside WT ? Played with Inbound/Outboud setting in
both directions but always there is something wrong ... any default profile
for this issue ??

9th: A suggestion getted from competitors : Can we have a windows with the
names of the country/zones that are approaching to the sunset sunrise ?
Based on the world map, a list of countries/zones (multiplier or not )  that
are in the gray line, useful for 2nd night and low band unmissible juiceble
multiplier .... ( Better even a suggestion on calls in that country/zone
that are passed trough the packet spot flow ..... ) Just dreaming !!

Thank's again for the unbelivable support, registered the last WT after the
start of the contest with an on fly email registration from Oliver ...
