VHFLOG32 History file [ Hit to refresh your browser ] 01/2008 v3.56 ° Fixed the `overflow error 6` when the software was calculating the score. ° Added a second grid format trapping routine - just in case you enter non-grid text into the grid field before entering the callsign. ° Added or changed the CATEGORY-OPERATOR, CATEGORY-STATION, CATEGORY-TRANSMITTER, CATEGORY-POWER and CATEGORY-BAND in the Cabrillo file. ° According to a few users, the newer versions work on Microsoft Vista OS. You may need to set permission to run programs by right-mouse clicking the executable, and selecting `Run As Administrator`. 01/2008 v3.55 ° Added setup to select COM ports other than 1-4, for use with the PCI COM boards. The use of PCI LPT boards works too. 09/2007 v3.54 ° Supports the 5 new Spring Sprints with 6-digit useage. 6-digits can be used and saved to log files in any contest. ° Added keyboard shortcuts to the 6-digit distance/heading calculations. ° Older sequential Ini file {Switchs.ini} changed to a Windows control format file {VHF32Control.ini}, which is easier to read (and edit if necessary). ° All Cabrillo band designators 1296 and above now changed to 1.2G, 2.3G, 24G,...300G for the ARRL contests. 01/2007 v3.53 ° Added user UTC offset in addition to auto offset from the PC`s Time Zone setup. ° Unresolved VB quirk: Num-Lock and Caps-Lock change state with some keyboard functions. Turn off these keys before running the logger - then all OK. 02/2006 v3.52 ° Added master callsign search using a 4K+ callsign ADIF file produced by K9PW. ° Added extended grid lookup. If grid info is not available from either of the 2 local lookup files, then the ADIF file is searched next - the grid, heading, distance & recip displayed. ° Mode defaults to PH if the field is cleared by the user. 11/2005 v3.51 ° The activity clock is now active in each of the `Big 4` ARRL contests, not just January SS. ° Routines for Laser and Ink Jet printers change to help print in columns. You can now select 10 or 12 point font size. ° Grid maps can remain open while logging. Use + to move between screens. ° Laser QSOs now show as `300` (GHz) in the Cabrillo submission file. 07/2005 v3.5 ° Supports any video resolution - user can resize the screens as desired.

This backup can also be selected while in the logging screen. ° Added search file [ck2list.dat] - a file of frequently worked stations; has the op`s name. ° Added club member QSO lookup and totals by band, like the MEMSWRKD.exe app. ° Added right-click HELP function to labels and buttons. 06/2004 v3.3 ° Added selectable function that inserts the Rover`s last grid into grid field - tnx K3DNE. ° Long-filenames for LOGs are OK now - keep them reasonable length to fit displayed fields. ° Modified the PLL/Transverter information label update - after DVK play. ° Cabrillo 33cm designator needs to be `902`, was `902` or `903` previously. 03/2004 v3.2 ° Added software switch to reverse the DTS and RTS COM port connections for CW/PTT. ° Added DVK over-ride mode to cancel a playing wave file and the repeat at any time. ° Mic and footswitch click now supported w/RIGblaster. ° All bands encoded to LPT1 for decoder switchbox use.
