Hi Fabian

Please see this screenshot: http://tinypic.com/r/ra14z7/7

It seems the error counter in some cases ignores correct characters. Or can you explain why in the red box it gave me 5 instead of 2 errors?

The two green boxes however are cases where leading characters were wrong as well, but then the error count is correct.

Cheers,

Thanks for the hint! Such a group should now be graded correctly with 2 errors.

Today I got this line. Again I get 5 errors, while two letters where heard correctly.

sent heard errors
JLJZA IJZ JLJZA 5

I've noticed a couple of things when working with groups of random length. First, even if the group is seven characters long the highest number of errors that will be reported is 5. Second, if the group is short and you type too many characters, these will be ignored.

For example:

Sent Group Received Group Errors
NREKKUE MMMMMMMM MMMM---- 5
NNNNUNU MMM NNNN--- 5
NMMM MMMMMM NMMM 1

It also puzzles me how, if I enter absolutely nothing at all, I still get a positive accuracy percentage, and sometimes it's even as high as 25%. I can only assume it's thinking I got all the spaces correct, or something like that.
