hi wt-team ..

i used win-test 3.10.1 in the may vhf contest and it performed again very well. but during the search & pounce sequences at night i've observed that the target square in the gridsquare map does not turn red when you type in ONLY a locator. this happens with both "pressing space bar" and "automatically" setting for the actualize information of the gridsquare map. once you type in one or more characters in the call entry and press twice the space bar the target square turns red.

it happens quite often that you first catch a locator and get the callsign later on. so a dummy call or character has to be entered to see where the target is. this is of course of minor importance, but it's helpful just to see "aha, nearly south-west" (and not to think about degrees and antenna directions being sleepy) ;-)

and one wish for locators (i think dl6rai mentioned this already): another "check window" would be nice which displays calls belonging to a locator entered to the locator entry (taken from log and vhf database). this helps to save time during search and pounce sequences.
