[WT-support] win-test in vhf/uhf contests

[DK5EW]

Hi Gabi,
nice to hear from you from at this side :-)

I came from win contest program to win-test. That program wasn't updated 
since 2010 so I looked for a alternative and came to win-test.
With the demo I didn't recognised that vhf contesting in win-test is not 
really and well supported as hf.

So in that case I only can hope that the programmers of win-test will 
see that there is also vhf contesting in the hamradio world.
I hope that edi problem is fixed soon because for a programmer it can't 
be a real problem. Also the software is costing some EUR and is not free 
ware
so a good support is awaited. Steady update of software is a advatage of 
a program and a reason to buy.
