Post - Contest:
Thankful for this reflector and kind words of mentors helping out!
Ed & Jim, THANKS For replies and help line on this
BTW, was reviewing Ed's messages and using those as guide
Before the contest implemented following two lines in writelog.ini (Tnx NU4Y)
[RttyContextMenuEntries]
1=PUSHCALL
this took menu out of right mouse click and caused push call on right click
impressive and great option, worked great!
Next on pop call sign out,
I've used writelog for years but just didn't seem to recall that on the,
TU NOW message, then hit F key for message CALLSIGN and report, writelog would
automatically pop from Q
like WOW
This worked like a charm and just when I thought the happiness factor with
writelog was way over the top, other plus.
(That's probably in help file, just missed it)
73 and Good DX, W5AJ

Subject: RE: [WriteLog] TU NOW MESSAGE
[Here is the properly formatted version of my post. The first post got nuked
somehow.]
I do it with the following message:
TU %C, NOW %L
This is F8, mapped to SEMICOLON. My normal Run Exchange message is F5, mapped
to APOSTROPHE. Thus, all I do is tap SEMICOLON and APOSTROPHE in rapid
succession, then turn my attention to a second radio or the other VFO for SO2V.
The other stations on frequency print:
TU AA5AU, NOW
W5AJ 599 CA CA
Normally, I'm not doing this but just sending F6, my Run QSL message, which is
sent by ENTER, since I use ESM. Thus, all three keys are adjacent to each
other and they are all I use for 99% of my Run QSOs.
For S&P, my call is mapped to OPEN SQUARE BRACKET and my S&P Exchange is mapped
to CLOSE SQUARE BRACKET. Thus, my S&P messages are all right above my 3 Run
messages.
73,
Ed W0YK

WriteLog@contesting.com Subject: [WriteLog] TU NOW MESSAGE This question deals
with TU but not calling CQ instead working next stationin Que I have the "="
key setup in writelog to pop next callsign from QUE should be a means to use
the = key board shortcut in message such that apreprogrammed message could look
likeLET'S ASSUME THAT %= would Do that %R TU %L NOW %= %C 599 TX TX %E did try
%= in a message, it does pop from the QUE but the message sent is amess..also
appears that what callsign is in entry field for RTTY is the one sentfor that
Message using %C (doesn't read in next call) QUESTION:is there method for one
message to send TU or %C TU, the callsign that of the station being logged Then
the message pops from QUE and sends NOWThen sends the new callsign in entry
window and report otherwise it's three keystrokes (seems)TU messageKey to pop
from queTh
en use report message to send report to next callsign 73 W5AJ
