Ed,
 As other have pointed out thanks for going over that for us.
 I've tried to understand the call stack a few times and have always kinda of 
given up as it didn't seem to act like I would expect. 
With your information in mind I see why I was always having trouble. However 
I'd like comment on the way the macro's work in Writelog
(maybe this should go to the Writelog reflector, but the RTTY experts seem more 
vocal over here).

I see you are using 2 macros to make the TU/NOW function work, I've always 
thought that it should work with one, but alas I guess
the way Writelog handles macros would have to be changed. Lets look at an 
example

One would think that this might work:

%R %C TU, NOW%L %C 599 MN MN %E

Where the first %C would be the call you just worked, and after the %L is 
processed the next %C would be the new call that came from
the stack as that is what is in the EDIT window now. But of course as the 
evaluation of the macro isn't being done 'live' so to speak you
end up with the same call being send. Not what I would have expected I guess.

The other alternative to this which also doesn't work for the same reasons

%L %R%P1 TU, NOW %C 599 MN MN %E

Have you ever had an discussion with anybody about making it work like this ?
