I SHOULD know this. But. I. Don't. 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

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 h

Susan, I believe you can change the font size in the RTTY window. It has been a while since I used WL, and I don't remember exactly how to do it. But I do remember changing the font size to a larger

REPLY: If reception was perfect, i.e. no garbled characters, then USOS would not be necessary. In fact, with wired TTY it isn't used at all. Only with radio TTY is it needed. The idea behind it is th

I think the key concept I was missing is that it requires enabling by the sender. The way I was interpreting this thread was that UOS provided value even if the originator did not send extra shift ch

Susan, In the RTTY window, click FILE / FONT. However, you will probably have to do that every time you start WriteLog. 73, Jim N6VH On 2/11/2013 7:26 AM, Susan King wrote: Speaking totally non-techn

I think that this is incorrect. As I remember, USOS is enabled on the receiver's end and adds the extra LTRS on space. I don't believe that the transmitting station sends a LTRS character along with

That is correct. From the transmitter's viewpoint, each SPACE is simply an "implicit LTRS." The transmitter's only responsibility when using USOS, is to change its own state to LTRS right after sendi

I think you are overcounting, Andy. It should be just 3xFIGS. No additional LTRS are sent by the transmitter. But yes, it still does adds up to a lot for the people looking to save milliseconds, but

Which means that those who want to save the 330 ms to 500 ms per report (2 x FIGS or 3 x FIGS) can use dashes if they wish even if they enable USOS. There is more time saving from eliminating the th

REPLY: I think you're right. If I recall correctly, when a space is detected by either the transmitter or receiver, they each reset themselves back to FIGS case, but no actual FIGS character is sent.

No, just the opposite! :-) :-). When a Space is sent and received, both ends set their state to LTRS, not to FIGS. You are right that no shift character is sent. When all else fails, check the ARRL H
