New features and bug fixes in 8.04



Awards

· Not all previous submissions were included when doing a new submission



COM ports

· Increased the range of COM port numbers from 8 to 32



CW keyboard

· Not installing the LPT driver no longer hangs the CW signal

· When adding in real-time with Special Keys for CW enabled, the Esc
will only empty the CW buffer and no longer stops adding QSOs. A new
menu option was added to do this.



Databases

· Jim, AD1C, has updated a number of databases like the country
database, awards database etc; for the details see
http://dx4win.ad1c.us/data.htm



Import/Export

· Added frequency in MHz



Packet

· Saving Putout Window columns ignored last column

· New award band color in spotting window only used when the band has
its own award



QSL Labels

· Better test to go to new label if Pse/Tnx did not change or is not present

· We could clear too many labels when removing duplicate QSLs



PSK31

· An updated pskcore dll no longer requires the installation of the C
runtime library (thanks Dave, AA6YQ)



QSOs

· Allow special characters and characters with accents for name and
QTH in multiple QSO operations

· Allow a dash ('-') when searching in a list of values (pressing F1
in prefix field, award value etc.)

· Multiple QSO operations change QSL method now ignores confirmation /
label status

· Fixed problem with band / mode box in summary windows not always
following the QSO Window settings



Radios

· Added support for a transverter (single band or all bands)



Reports

· Double click in listing report could set incorrect filter settings
