Here we go… Hopefully “April showers bring May flowers” and all the issues with the framework upgrades in the April release are behind us.

  • Add Polish Gmina Award (by M1SDH, as suggested by SP9MKP)
  • Add self-spotting for Bunkers on the Air (WWBOTA) programme (by M1SDH)
  • Fixed errors in time calculations
  • List formatting tweaks
  • Hide RST in list if fields are hidden

On a good note, we have (12 of us) just returned from our annual park-fest, this time in Coffs Harbour. I will be aggregating the stats from the event shortly after a short period ensuring all logs are in.
I used the May Pre version, others used the the Lite version and also the standard April version. I think only 3 of the 12 used something other than PoLo, there were at least 3 converts to PoLo during the event.
There were no reported issues other than the 2 listed below.
My personal stats were, 39 activations in 7 days with 2,080 QSO and 208 parktoparks.
So we had a very pleased group of activators.

The 2 issues shared by myself and other have been noted elsewhere but I will share them again here:

  1. Once a P2P reference is entered, it is impossible to clear it (when entered in error). It steadfastly retains at least one character which of course gets exported and causes an error in upload unless manually cleared.
  2. Changing (editing) an exiting frequency is difficult. backspacing out the frequency needs to done very slowly and you need to hold the backspace to again get rid of a reinserted numeral which gets inserted when you lift from the backspace key. Holding the backspace for a longer period finally clears that numeral.
