<div><div>One nice feature of TRlog in the North American Sprint contest is the "visible dupe sheet" window, which shows all calls worked on the current band, <span id="st" name="st" class="st">sorted</span> by call area and *suffix*, so that you can quickly check for dupes just by looking at the screen, without having to type anything:
<br><br><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 VE DX<br> K1AR N2NC K3LR K5ZD NS6A AG9A XE1/AA6RX<br>NB1B N6DA
<br> K1EA WB6DSV<br></span><br>You rarely work more than 130 calls per band in this 4 hour contest, so there is enough room to fit everyone in one window.<br><br>In the Sprints, many stations have short call signs and send >35 WPM. You constantly have to QSY, and timing is very important. If you spend too much time typing in a call to see if it shows up under Check Partial, you may end up calling too late, and you'll lose your chance at the contact (due to the QSY rule). The visible dupe sheet window helps solve this problem.
<br><br>Perhaps as you type in a few letters, calls worked with those letters
would be highlighted in the visible dupe sheet, helping you even more. This is not a requirement, not even supported by TRlog I think, but it would be a nice enhancement.<br><br>Any chance we could have a beta release of Win-Test that has any version of a window like this? I was looking forward to using Win-Test in the NA Sprint this weekend, but with this important feature missing, it will be a bit more difficult than I had anticipated.
