[WT-support] CQWW MS Band Change counter

Thu Nov 25 18:42:07 CET 2010

Sorry I'm back with same subject message on support list because keep on 
new idea today =-O . According Patrick ALT-J does fine job but for all 
those they have ALT-R usage why not insert somewhere on rate window same 
green/red alarm square as status window ? With numerous computers on the 
LAN and slim notebook computer or oldest 15" monitors the status window 
spread wide part on the screen.
Dont' know if will easy to add this feature on dvp trunk. Apologies if 
not.......
