Default Winpilot for contest use?

Kirk,

I believe the issues was that several days during the 15m 2006 USA
Nationals an AAT task was called that had more than 5 or 6 turnpoints
and the SN-10 in the AAT mode would not allow that many points.

Richard,

Ok, I can see that. Hard to imagine weather so unpredictable that the
CD couldn't make a simpler task! But I've CD'd local contests and
understand the pressure....

That makes me even more satisfied with my setup, since I can use the
PDA for navigation on the rare (hopefully!) tasks the SN10 is currently
unable to handle.

Time for a suggestion to Dave Nadler for a new SN10 software upgrade!
