[Dx4win] Formatting question

[Kjell W. Strom]

Jim,
I changed PACK to PSK last time you brought it up, and it works
with my FT-990.
Have you got an equally simple fix to change the denominator for
the 80 m band into the conventional "3.5 MHz" instead of "3.7".
I rarely work above 3.6 MHz in that band. I have searched the
PDF manual for "3.7" but Adobe reader cannot find this
expression, so I guess that there is no explanation why DX4WIN
is using it.
73 and HNY,
Kjell, PB3SM - SM6CPI
