2 - Added mixed mode to QSL counts. Shows counts
whether SSB or CW.
Version 8.0
1 - Fixed a lot of cosmetic things.
2 - Fixed error that occured when printing QSL cards
sent & not received. Thanks to N5MHZ.
3 - Changed the info printed in the send QSL card -
print QSL list to display HIS SIG & MY SIG needed
when filling out you cards. Left RQSL field there
so you know if tnx qsl or pse qsl.
4 - Added the ability to delete a country from the
country (DXCC) list.
5 - Fixed error in entering country confirmed from
received QSL card. Thanks to N5MHZ
6 - Fixed error that caused program to ask for entry #
on 2nd time through while editing log by call when
only one entry was found.
7 - Fixed error that caused net style logging to not
drop the net members until you left the logging
menu.
8 - Added 17 Meters to all data files. You need to run
UPDATE.EXE to update your data files IF YOU have
entered data into COUNTRY, COUNTY, or STATE check
lists.
9 - Changed to print out of the countries list (DXCC)
to show only the main countries. No need for all
the alternates to print.
Version 7.0
1 - This version is compiled under a different compiler.
This reduced file size slightly & it runs a little
faster especially in the NET logging modes.
2 - Removed the bell in all but wrong entries.
Now wil beep only if attention is needed.
Suggested by many.
3 - Changed display while adding counties to checklist
to display the county name.
Suggested by K3EVH.
4 - Fixed error finding county.dat in the QSL IN option
on floppy systems.
Pointed out by K3EVH. Released vers 6.1 to fix it.
5 - Fixed error adding only one entry to log manually.
6 - Qsl cards sent & not recieved now recognizes lower
case x's.
Suggested by WA1YDL.

options when 3 or more previous contacts were
displayed.

checklist (USE WITH CAUTION)
Suggested by WA1YDL.
10 - Add branch to QSL cards sent but not received for
county hunters. displays the city field.
Suggested by K3EVH.
11 - Fixed problem in contest processing of the edit list
not being reindexed if country spelling was changed.
Running the edit list again will now be in the proper
order.
12 - Add ability to delete a log entry at the last display
in the logging modes. contest mode backs up the contact
count when entry is deleted. Useful if entered by
accident or contact is not completed.
13 - Changed the display of confirmed & needed countries,
states & counties, while listing by band & mode, to
show only the name. There was no sense showing other
bands & modes. display & printout much simplified.
Suggested by KF5PE.
14 - Add a mixed mode display of confirmed & needed
countries, states & counties. Activated by entering
[MIX] in the mode entry of listing by band & mode.
Suggested by KF5PE.
15 - Add a mixed band display of confirmed & needed
countries, states & counties. Activated by entering
[MIX] in the band entry of listing by band & mode.
Suggested by KR9R.

Suggested by KF5PE.
17 - Changed 'LAST,BAND & MODE' in the logging to function
keys 'F3,F5 & F7'
18 - If you have updated your country.dat file with the
separate file FIXDXCC.ARC, this version will display
the 'before 19XX' with the alternate prefixes as
listed in the back of the ARRL DXCC Countries List.
Version 6.0
CLARIFICATION: Some of the fields in the *.dat files are
logical fields. For the sake of clarity some prompts
ask for Yes/No input. This will cause the field to
show as T for Yes or F for No. This is not a bug but
a feature of the program.
1 - Further problems with the many combinations of video
cards on monochrome monitors caused me to reconsider
the automatic color card sensing. Starting with this
version configure will ask if you have a color
monitor. Thanks to KB9AVO for helping work this one
out.
2 - Fixed bug in send QSL cards. Now loops back for more
entries instead of the menu. From WA1YDL
3 - When entering qsl card received to the log, entries
marked recieved already will be ignored. Does happen
with multiple card received from the same station.
From WA1YDL
3 - While in the QSL handling menu, the country checklist
& state checklist now brings up the respective full
menu instead of the info only screen.
4 - When in the logging options & you call the country or
state checklist, it will only loop back if nothing is
found. From WA1YDL
5 - When entering to log manually, the date, band & mode
will carry over from the previous entry. Will save
a few keystrokes if it is the same. From WA1YDL
6 - Added a County hunters logging mode using the county
name in the city field. As promised I will not change
the log.dat file. From K4EVH
7 - NET & COUNTY HUNTERS logging mode now carries the
frequency over from the previous entry. From K4EVH
8 - Added COUNTY HUNTERS checklist to track counties just
like WAS & DXCC.
9 - It was never intended for a user to enter 10m in the
band working prompt, but if it was done it would
cause a program crash when listing needed or
confirmed country or state. Added code to remove it
if entered & a warning next to that prompt.
10 - Fixed a problem of listing confirmed or needed states
or countries if a lowercase X was inputed into the
DXCC or WAS checklists. Either upper or lower case
will now be picked up. From WA1DYL
11 - Added the ability to add prefixes to the beamheading
file. The program will search for the prefix to be
sure it does not already exist, if not you will be
asked for the country name. a display of all entries
for that country will occur. You will then be asked
to choose the one you want to duplicate. The info
from that entry will be duplicated with the new
prefix. BE CAREFUL of the file size as you increase
it by adding prefixes (especially floppy users).
From WA1DYL
12 - Fixed bug that could cause error in the log.idx file.
Bug would cause program not to find a call after an
edit from the Last option in logging.
13 - All searches for editing purposes now will not ask
for a entry # if only one is displayed. A Yes answer
will bring up the entry displayed. From WA1DYL
14 - Adding a confirmed state will no longer ask for an
entry #
15 - For floppy disk users there was a possiblity of
trashing the boot disk in 'A' drive upon leaving the
program if instructions were followed. This problem
is now fixed. The reason for the swap is the lack of
command.com on the data disk. A full floppy system
will balk if command.com is not present in 'A' drive
upon leaving the program.
16 - Added the ablity to access the WAS,DXCC & COUNTY
HUNTERS checklists while entering QSL cards received.
You can now check off an entry in these checklist as
you enter the card received to the log.
Version 5.0
1 - Add log print out in callsign order. Suggestion
by KB4QLZ.
2 - Add city,state,country & remarks to net logging
display of others on the net. Came to mind while
listening to the hurricane relief net. Sometimes
need to know where the others on the net are
located for call backs & routing of info.
3 - FIX MAJOR BUG with monochrome monitors. Fields did
not show on IBM & showed white on white on LEADING
EDGE. Thanks to NY0J For pointing it out. Wonder
how 2 versions went by before it was found??????
>>> THIS PROBLEM PROMPTED EARLY RELEASE OF
VERSION 5 as it was at the time <<<<<
Version 4.0
1 - Provides better menu organization. Easier to use!
2 - Added ability to display or print state & countries
needed or confirmed.
Version 3.0
1 - Adds color if run on a color system.
2 - Fixes display alignment problem in the QSL area.
3 - Adds the ability to configure for a floppy system.
4 - Adds a search of your QSL manager file as you enter
a call in either regular, contest or net logging.
If a manager is found, it will be displayed &
automatically entered to log.
5 - Better prompts for required entries.
6 - Paged listing of multiple dup contacts.
7 - Confirmation before exiting to dos.
8 - Program will NOT run if system clock is NOT set.
9 - Function keys now used for some options in logging
operations. The ones you would not like to enter by
accident are left as full words.
10 - Net style logging option added. suggestion by KB6KBA.
Like regular logging except that it adds an option
to review contact call & name of all contacts logged
while in this option. Useful for "who's on the net".
Since this option does more it's just a little
slower than the others. Suggestion by KB6KBA
11 - Fixes a few small bugs in file handling & displays.
12 - Adds the ability to delete an entry from the QSL
Manager file. Suggestion by N4OGR
13 - Adds automatic entry & update of QSL Manager file if
entered or changed while logging a contact.
Suggestion by KI3S.
NOTE: Printing QSL card needed to send to labels was not
workable considering the varied format of QSL cards.
Version 2.0 - first release
