[WT-support] WT 3.13.0 is out

[Chris Libowitzky, oe3li]

Dear Oliver,
Re: WT 3.13.0
1 Still NO correct Evaluation - Distance in accordance with IARU-Reg.1 C5
(Spec. setting QSOs with own WWLocator to 1 point is NOT enough!
2. OE1EMS, Braco's suggestion - IARU-Reg.1 recommended Mode-numbers in
EDI-(REG1TEST)-File NOT implemented.
   Should VHF-Contesters really use V 3.13.0 in comming IARU-VHF Test Sept.
1st/2nd, 2007??

>
> - CAUTION:  New network protocol version 1.20 released
>
>    Reminder:  If you use WT in a networked environment, you must have
>    the same WT version on all machines!

>    and "State/Province/Country" field in the WTB binary file. It means
>    that if you open an old NAQP file done with Win-Test, the "OP name"

>    Cabrillo file from it. Then install again the latest Win-Test version,
>    and import the generated Cabrillo. My apologies for these troubles

>    efficient with that contest, as well as with NA Sprint, NCCC...
>    which share some of the same code.
>
> - NA Sprint contest added. Log for the contest sponsor is generated
>    using the CABRILLO V3 specifications. Note that the State/Province
>    will contain DX for non-US/VE stations whatever the operator logged
>    in the field. Tks W0YK, N5KO, K3LR, N6TV and others.

> - Added support of the new TenTec Omni VII radio, which is actually
>    based on the Jupiter command sets.
>
> - Added a Search & Pounce Operating Mode feature in order to have
>    two different sets of CW/RTTY messages:  one when running, and one
>    when searching multipliers.
>
>    The Run and S&P sets of messages are editable in the "Messages" Tab
>    of the "Standard CW/RTTY Messages Configuration..." window.
>
>    Use CTRL+TAB to switch between RUN and S&P mode on the Primary Radio.
>    The status of this mode is shown in the clock window. To change the
>    mode of the Secondary Radio Window, use either SHIFT+CTRL+TAB or a
>    mouse click on the appropriate control in the Secondary Radio Window.
>
>    It is possible to configure WT to automatically wipe the logged QSO
>    or populate the Band Map when the operator changes the radio
>    frequency, as soon as the Search & pounce mode is activated on that
>    radio. This can be configurated from the "Band Map Properties"
>    (right click in the Band Map windows).
>
>    NB: Search & Pounce is not activated by default. This can be done
>    in the menu "Tools | Data Entry | Search and Pounce".
>
> - The $QSOB4 content macro can be redefined in the "Options" Tab of
>    the "Standard CW/RTTY Messages Configuration..." window. That macro
>    doesn't support any variable in, except $MYCALL. Tks N6TV.
>
> - "Sprint Logic" feature added. Applicable in the EU Sprint, NA
>    Sprint and the NCCC Sprint contests. When activated, WT decides which
>    INSERT CW/RTTY Message must be sent according to the "Rcvd QSO
>    Number" field.
>
>    When that field is empty, WT assumes that the operator just called
>    CQ, and then sends the INSERT message of the "RUN" mode.
>
>    When that field is not empty, WT assumes that the operator just
>    replyed to a CQ, and then sends the INSERT message of the "S&P"
>    mode.
>
>    This feature can be enbled/disabled in the "Options" Tab of the
>    "Standard CW/RTTY Messages Configuration..." window. Other
>    contests are not affected by this option.
>
>    Tks N6TV, K3LR, K0XP, N2NL and many others.
>
> - New option to "Stay in Field when moving in the log", in order
>    to avoid having the cursor always back on the callsign field.
>    Option is in menu "Option | Log".
>
> - Summary wnd (Alt-S) : New option to include or not the dupes in
>    the QSO counts and the avg calculations.
>
> - REG1TEST files : The New Country flag in VHF+ contests is now
>    set in an appropriate manner. Tnx HB9DFD.
>
> - QSO deletion : The warning message is now more informative.
>    Tnx N6TV.
>
> - Bugfix: In the specific case where one was operating a contest
>    with a separate serial number per band, changing band on the
>    Secondary Radio when the cursor was not in the last position
>    of the log in the Primary Radio, the serial number set for the
>    Secondary Radio might be wrong. Fixed.

> - Bugfix: The Multiplier window was always showing DXCC for all

> - Bugfix : Internal CW generator : Under certain circumstances, the
>    inter characters space was dropped. Tnx TA2RC, OH2UA.
>
> - Bugfix : Log display : When working CW or RTTY, a 5-char received

>
> - Bugfix : When using Ctrl-K to delete characters behind the cursor
>    in CW, and under other certain circumstances, $LOGGED was not
>    updated. Tnx N6TV, CT1BOH.
>
> - Bugfix : Under certain circumstances there was no separator space
