In new Updated 4.11 version:

– Networking : Sockets initializations updated to comply with the
usage of Win-Test in a Linux / Wine environment. The wtCom.dll
must be updated (v2.0.4 or better) as well for this usage if needed.
Tnx AA6KJ.

and other various parameters, the displayed data could be incorrect.
Tnx IK0HBN, N6TV.

wasn’t correctly set when using the ” fill the time field. Tnx F5LEN.
