I have had the best luck when renaming it DEFAULT.SCP, as this name will not
be overridden by contest-specific check partial files or databases (which
may be old and out of date).  If you have both MASTER.SCP and VHF.DTB,
Win-Test will use VHF.DTB.  If you have both DEFAULT.SCP and VHF.DTB,
Win-Test will use DEFAULT.SCP.

See http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/Check_Partial_and_Np1_Files

You can see which check partial file is being used (including the release
number), by right-clicking on one of the Check Partial windows and selecting
"Used files list".

Win-Test deliberately disables the display of the VER20090705 "fake"
callsign.  Otherwise it would always show up when you typed "VE".

In Win-Test 4, these files are located in {appdata}\Win-Test\databases,
which is the shorthand we're using for:


C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Win-Test\databases\

After reading the Wiki and the archives I am a lot confused about how to
utilized MASTER.SCP. One place indicates you can use MASTER.SCP as is.
Another say it needs to be renamed to DEFAULT.SCP. A third spot indicates
that you must copy and rename it to match the name of the contest you are
operating.
 
So what does one have to do to utilize the most current MASTER.SCP file?
 
The other question is what folder is it to be placed into for WT 4?
 
When I first started trying to get the new master.scp file working the
version number display in the check partial window was VER200707--. Now I
get nothing for the version number. Looking at the download file I should
see VER20090705.
 
Thanks for any help.
