Gary,

Thanks. I reset that param this morning back to 1 and I see that when I type a call and press enter the report is sent and the cursor does move to the next field. So that solves half the problem.

But when I click on a call in rttyrite window, the cursor moves to the next field so that the report never gets sent, just the qrz message!

So the issue is how do I keep the cursor in the call field when I click a call into it?

Hello all,

Thinking about my session as w1aw/4. I am checking out the "Enter sends exch/QRZ" function on rtty

For the life of me, I can not get it to work as described in the help pages. I have tried various times but here is what seems to be happening.

With esm on and the cursor in the call field with no call, the Enter key sends CQ If I type a call in the call field, esm sends the report ok but the cursor stays in the call field. I have to space to the next field to get Enter to send the qrz message and log the qso
Now cursor is back in call field and Enter sends cq again.

However, if I click on a call in the rttyrite window (or 2tone window), the cursor moves to the next field automatically, so Entry now send the qrz message and logs the qso. The report never gets sent!

So in either case, typing a call or clicking on a call from rttyrite, the esm behavior seems broken. I suspect there might be one of those hidden ini params that I am missing. I have found "SmartEnterKey" and "MoveNextOnEnter" which do not seem to change the esm behavior.

I tried this on cw last month and it seemed to work. But of course I was typing a call.

I see that if I "pop" a call into the call field, instead of clicking from rttyrite, that esm does send the report. But I have to space out of the call field to get the next message.

The insert, + key work as expected.

What am I overlooking.

Jerry, W6IHG
