First thanks for the report.

I kept CTRL-G as it was used in the former - very limited - bandmap display and did not want to irritate long time TLF users with a new key combination. But CTRL-< sounds like an alternative for the future. > Some more notices: > > - "segmentation fault" > If the number of spots is >200 its likely the programme crashes soon > with this announcement.

Please use the logcfg.dat for setting your messages. But the displayed top bar is a fixed text (as it seems it was from the beginning). Changign that bar according to your CW messages is already on the todo list. 73, de Tom DL1JBE. -- "Do what is needful!"
