Guys, guys - I think we're OK on this! Do you have your SHIFT-FKEY
buffers set up properly?? Mine were not. I then imported my buffers
from last year, and this includes SHIFT-F8 through SHIFT-F11 setup with
the appropriate messages related to QTCs. After I did that, it works VY
FB! I'm not sure I completely understand why having those messages
fixes it, but it does. Maybe WL's "looking ahead" for the appropriate
SHIFT-Fkey buffer about the time it hits the serial number, and hangs
because it can't find those buffers...??
I don't even remember where I learned how to set those up - probably
from Dick's web pages last year! OH yeah, I'm sure it's in the HELP doc
somewhere too! HI GL - 73

this?

> This is easily done. Log 10 bogus QSO's. Enter the callsign of the
> 11th QSO in the entry window. Hit ALT-S, hit the Xmit QTC's button.

> What I am finding is that WriteLog sends the first line with the QTC

> begins to send the serial number on the first QTC, but stops and
> only sends diddles from then on. Tried it several times.

> Not what I wanted to find less than 24 hours before the contest, but

DXP-38
