Rick,
I initially had a problem with the ALT+n key to request a fill in the
receive window. Instead of asking for a fill on QTCn it would send the
contents of SHIFT+Fn. After a moment or two of thought I checked the
Keyboard Shortcuts and discovered I had created a whole series of ALT+n
commands for use in SSB contests to send the shifted F key memories by using
ALT+n. I quickly deleted all those shortcuts and it worked fine for me in
the receive window to ask for a fill. I never tried it in send window as I
just used the mouse to click on the QTC to resend. The WAE Contest
instructions for this module indicate that in addition to using the ALT+n
combo you can just use a number key by itself. I've done that before and it
does work.
I too experienced getting the pre-compose window when I hit ALT+K instead of
the normal sending window. That happens to me from time to time and I've
never understood what causes that one to pop up instead of the normal
window. Is it the ALT+something sequence that causes that or something
else? I sure would like to avoid it if I could.

Subject: [WriteLog] Sending QTC Fills in WAE RTTY
Had fun this weekend in RTTY WAE. The QTC support in Writelog is elegant
but I didn't fully master it. After sending one fill successfully using
Alt-<number key>, it stopped working right for any subsequent fill in the
same sequence. After the first Alt-<number key>, subsequent Alt-<number
key>s did nothing, so if my contact needed more than one fill I had to use
Alt-K to send manually. Worse yet, Alt-K after an Alt-<number key> popped
up the pre-compose window instead of the hot sending window that it would
pop up in other states, so I had to click Transmit to get my transmission
going and then type in the 2nd and subsequent fills. I suspect there is a
missing %E or something like that but I don't know where to put it or what
else to do. Any help out there?
Tnx & 73,
/Rick
