NOTE: All 3 bugs are now fixed. (2nd June 1993).
After the WPX contest weekend I found 3 bugs in my WPX program. Here's a list of
what is wrong with the program.
1. In the summary report it prints the score for each band as a short
integer and so any score over 32767 prints as a negative number.
FIXED.
2. Each prefix is only counted once no matter which band it is worked on. So
if you worked more than one band but only ask for a single band report,
some of the prefixes worked on other bands will be counted as if they were
already worked on the requested band. The score will be lower than it should
be. An all-band entry is generated correctly as far as the prefixes are
concerned.
FIXED. If you request a single band report, the program rescores the log.
3. U.S. callsigns with a portable indicator on them are not always handled
correctly. For example, the prefix for the callsign wu6g/5 should be counted
as wu5 but the program counts it as w5. This is obviously not correct.
FIXED.
