Isn't that what the "AUTOFILL" command is for?
When SD identifies area codes from the callsign, or from
previous QSOs, it auto-fills the data in the exchange field.
This may be a nuisance in S&P mode, as you then have to
use F5 to repeat your own call. The AUTOFILL command
toggles this feature On and Off – it has no effect when
you’re not in S&P mode.
I set AUTOFILL to "OFF" in the recent ARRL CW DX Contest, and found it
solved that problem.
