how does a logging program know when you are done typing in the call?? it
doesn't, so can't auto start calling
this is all CW
Normally (after coping call myself) I click on call on band map or I type
the call in
then I have two function keys setup for S&P
same for years so I'm trained
F4, send my callsign
station answers
F5, send my reply and log, done.
Just like Ken commented. I haven't set up a RETURN sends report, cuz the
above works well. Robert W5AJ
