Hi Eric

I will post back to the reflector in case more input from the gang is
required.

Unless I misread your message and misunderstand the options in WriteLog I
think that option is built into WL as an .ini option:

CtCompatibleAccel=YES

Can others in the verify this?

I've been wanting to make this suggestion for a long time, and finally
getting around to it.  During this past Field Day, the need became even more
apparent.

Computer generated keying is great, but with certain combinations of
letters, can create many unnecessary requests for repeat of a callsign at
higher speeds (not every CW op on the planet always copies well).

Part of my Field Day time was spent at the local CDF (California Division of
Forestry) EOC facilities where I took my TS-480S & WriteLog to help make
some CW QSOs for them.  The callsign used was W6HUL.

About 15% to 20% of the time, if I called a station, they came back with
W6SUL.  Many ops seemed to have difficulty with a "6" and an "H" next to
each other.  It became highly frustrating.  Even when I slowed down, the
problem was still there much of the time.  If I went to the paddles and
included a bit of extra spacing between the 6 and the H, things were better.
