Susan,
In the RTTY window, click FILE / FONT. However, you will probably have
to do that every time you start WriteLog.

Speaking totally non-technically, I prefer spaces. I have some tremor in my
mouse hand. When a sequence is hyphen-delimited I sometimes mouse up the
hyphen along with the desired characters. In the heat of the contest I
don't notice those extra hyphens and leave them in my log. The robot,
however, scours my log and tells me to remove the offending hyphens.
I think I'll send a note to WriteLog and ask that the RTTY window use a
larger font.

The space character is in both "character sets", i.e. LTRS and FIGS. It
shouldn't be necessary to send a FIGS character after a space (or LTRS
before) when sending a space delimited series of numbers. UOS would seem
to break this - i.e. assume LTRS after a space - but it clearly doesn't.
The first half of my career dealt a lot with ASCII, so it's intuitive. I
apparently still have a lot to learn about BAUDOT and it's sucessors. What
am I missing?

How about " 599 QWR 123" Bet most would still click on the 123. As I
was testing MMTTY, ST-8000, and 2Tone on receive on a number of stations
during the contest (mostly receive) I can assure you that the nearly 5%
plus error rates of RTTY stations is caused by just such errors. In
fact the software test this morning as I copied stations working P49X on
10 meters was pretty amazing. Early in the morning Ed is weak up here on
my lousy antennas.
