With TR and my 756Pro, the computer would jump to a strange freq at times, I
believe from RF getting into something somewhere. I think, in my case, the
primary source of the RF is my 40m loop when operated on 15m. I have not
noticed it as drastically since I switched to WriteLog and I have added some
ferrite cores to the radio interface cables. But, I suspect the 756 series
(I also experieced these problems with a straight 756) may be weak in this
department.

I've gotten into the habbit of using CTRL-Backspace to clear an unwanted
call and it clears the entire window.

I saw this at times as well, but has having too much fun to think about what
was causing it.
