Has anyone played around with free form entry and SS yet?
I did a little last night. I turned on the "free form entry", but when I type
a callsign (first, right? you need to do a dupe check before you S&P someone),
it wants to turn the call into a QSO number!!! How does one enter a call, then
do free form for the rest of the report? Tab or mouse over to the free form
field?
Someone else mess with this for SS yet? Am I doing something wrong? It DOES
seem to work if you type a call, then press INS to send the exchange. If you
do that, then it populates the Call field properly, then allows you to enter
the rest "free form", with the exception of the mandatory 3 digit QSO number.
Oh, you didn't know that? Seems like you MUST enter the QSO number as a 3
digit number, (or maybe a 1 digit number might work) or else it gets confused
as the check.
This free form thing can be great...once it gets working right, or someone
explains how to properly use it. Anyone know how?
Thanks,
Chad WE9V
