[WT-support] Issues from WPX: CR and Worked Prefixes

[Tõnno Vähk]

WT worked nice in the 4 computer network for 9000 QSOs at AN8A M/2. Two issues:

1. It seems to me that $CR is not any more working in the SSB scenarios. Actually in the the previous version out for RDXC it already seemed to be be broken. So I cannot create a short TU message by writing say $F6 $CR on the F6 field in the respective scenario. It does not react to that and no ENTER is activated. Can you check it please?

2. We logged some dummy QSOs before the contest to check network and I entered a call with a prefix of 6 letters followed by number or something like that. Now that being in the log I activated the Worked Prefixes window and WT hung up. It was the same way on all computers. So we had to terminate WT from Task Manager and when you started WT again it immidiately hung up again as it remembered Worked Prefixes window being opened and it caused an immidiate crash. So only option was to delete the log file completely and start everything again!! Maybe you can check the logic of what happens with very long and peciuliar prefixes.

3. About 3-4 times it happened that when changing the band the serial number did not change and we actually sent number of the previous band before noticing. I don't know what caused this, maybe somebody else has noticed. So you had to do the EDIT SERIAL NUMBER and enter correct number into QSO to get the numbering correct again.

And the tip of the day: At multiplier station where you have to change the identity of the the station from RUN1 to RUN2 and opposite you can use also ALT-Y instead writing RUN1 and RUN2:)
