Contest Feature Requests

1. The contest screen exchange box is labeled number, could it be a more generic label like “exchange” as most contest exchanges do not include a serial number.
2. Contest exchanges usually have two parts like in the last RTTY when the the exchange was name and state/zone. Could there be a field for each part? The software would enter the state then to enter the name I had to enter, name space then state again. It would be faster to enter name then return/enter key to send reply message. It’s the way most contest software works.

1. Here in German we use always using the wording "control number". "Exchange" should be more correct, it's not a big deal to change it.
2. I have no plan to change that. There are advantages and disadvantages using a single field. But the most important reason is: I have to rewrite more than 100 contest templates for the changes.

I understand Tom, perhaps the Contest temples could be updated over a period of time, whenever changes are made to an individual template.
