Here is a couple of things I noticed yesterday during the NAQP CW contest:
a) If you have auto S&P mode = yes, while in the CQ mode, you put the RIT on
and listen around after CQing the program goes into S&P mode...I would think
that since I'm just using the RIT during CQ mode (+/- 1-1.5 kc) that the pgm
would stay in CQ mode? I'm using the Kenwood TS-440S
b) When using the bandmap and S&P mode, I put WP2/K9BG in the bandmap by
hitting the space bar (after entering his call), when I tune back across him
the call window doesn't show his call but the cursor moves to the right like it
wants to display something? I tried calls like WD9GGY1, WD9GGY12 and they
display...maybe it's the "/" or "\" ?
c) I entered "WA GENE" because I initially messed up the name, the pgm took it
as "WA GA" (WA in Georgia???) How can GENE be GA ?
d) Sometimes the window to the right of the callsign window where it displays
the country was getting partially wiped out?
e) In the S&P mode the station's call is not sent to them...
shouldn't it send it before the S&P exchange info?
Just some casual observations,
Eric WD9GGY
