There, there, don't fret! No, rest assured it doesn't work that way. You
must be covering up your Rttyrite screen when you're in the logging window?
UNdock most, if not all, of the windows so they are free of the main logging
window. You should keep the cursor in the ENTRY area most of the time, and
still be able to see the Rttyrite window. Callsign highlighting is working
just swell for me, but I have Don's SuperCheckPartial file.

You can specify what nodes you like - I'm a little too tired to remember
right now, and I use DX Telnet, but there's a file in the Program folder (I
think), that's named something like tcp/dat - You can modify that with a
text editor and then you will see your favorite choices to choose from.
If you ever decide to use DXT with WL, check out Don's pages and also mine
at www.qsl.net/wa9als/dxtelnet.htm.

Is there something wrong with waiting 30 min before the contest to do stuff?

I have several advanced degrees, but I'm still very dense when it comes to
this stuff!

My EVERYTHING aches, and it's only Friday night!
Hang in there - WriteLog's the best! If it seems hard, you just haven't
learned how to do it easy yet.
