Yes, I played a lot with Xresources but there is not a solution. For
the better visibility to my old eyes I need simply to replace the
"bright" cyan color with bright red color. That's all. I am looking
into the source code where to change this single color. Cyan sucks!
Otherwise the color scheme is excellent, ensuring low fatigue to my
eyes, the cyan color is the ONLY problem...

See src/bandmap.c function 'colorize_spot()' around line 550.
The actual colors for the CB_... color pairs gets initialized in
'bm_init()' in the same file around line 193.

Unfortunately I am not a programmer. (Interested who I am? See
https://www.qrz.com/db/ok1rr). I don't find any joy in the sources
etc. I go there if I must, if there is no other possibility. I am
just an operator, I highly enjoy the ease to operate the tlf (the
best of all contesting software overall!). I use tlf where I can,
also where I don't need to observe my score, mults etc. online, so I
can use tlf in most contests, although I have more painful work with
the adjudicating if the contest has no direct support in tlf.

I see this list is one of low attendance. I posted my comments on the
color scheme on Mar. 31, first response came from Zoltan on Apr. 10.
Can I do something for faster response? Some of my requests remained
unanswered which indicated that tlf is a matter of low importance to
most list members.

My sincere apologies for my previous criticism. It is a result of
"fatal" lack of Linux contesting software. Thank you for your
friendly tollerance of my impatience, TNX!

Terminals are set up in interesting ways.  If you're using Xterm or
rxvt, then there is an X Resources file in the TLF repository that
sets the colors to mimic those of the Linux console withe a VGA
color scheme.

Perhaps this post will help:

If you're using the terminal from a desktop environment, then
setting the actual colors will vary with the terminal at hand.  I
use Xterm (UXterm, actually for UTF-8) with the VGA color palette.
