1x1 call sign uploads

I have been running a WSPR beacon with a 1x1 call sign for a local club event today, and I was delighted to see that wsprdaemon versions beginning with 3.0.5 will decode/upload this special type of call sign.  This also motivated me to upgrade the version at a remote site from 3.0.3 so that I could spot myself a few hundred miles away.  Guessing that wsprdaemon fix may have been related to the changes that the WSJT-x software folks made that fixed the bug last year.  Previously I discovered that I had to append a suffix to a 1x1 call sign to enable spotting for it.

In any event, kudos to Rob for creating such a powerful tool!

Support for 1x1 calls may have been added to the WSJT-x 2.6.1 package which is loaded by WD 3.0.6.
