Floyd;

I have been a Ham since 1953 and have a LOT of pre 1975 cards. I have
complained about this problem before and I guess there isn't enough
interest in fixing this (it would take a couple of lines of code to fix)

The way I get around this problem to create a group for all cw QSO after
the start of the CW DXCC. When I have all QSOs selected the cw stats are
incorrect but they are correct when selecting the CW group. This is a
bit clunky but it works.
