Will you have some time over the next few weeks to verify this fix? I assume you already have.

Add the verified label and assign the issue to @scotthibbs. Scott will review and update release notes.

Thank you,
Mike

Thank you. Also, now would be a good time to update the call history files for the JARL contests if you want to include those in this next release.
