Hi Paul,
yes I did write the UKDX module. However, all of the
serial number workings as well as the F-key macros are
controlled from the main program, not form the contest
module level. So basically it should be the same
behavior for all of the contests. The UKDX module
itself has no visibility to the "F-key" workings.

I don't know if Steve is the author of this module or
not, but I did
spot
one thing yesterday
that seems different (IIRC).
When exchanging info with another station, I had
completed the entry
with
the enter key,
the other station now requests a repeat of the serial
number. I hit
the
macro with
%3 in it, and it now gives the "current" serial number
- which is one
above
the one I mean
to send. I had to then copy over the contact info to
the new number
and
disregard the first
qso. Caught me twice that way...
I expected it to not send a new number until another
call was placed in
the
call field.
I do realize that I can use the method to grab a
previous qso's log
info,
but I don't remember
having to do this with other modules in Writelog.
In the mean time I had to force myself to not hit
enter until I
received the
acknowledgement
from the other station. - I know its a better
operating technique,
but old
habits die hard ;-)
