After every contest we always see all the things that others did wrong. None of them are new if you have at least one RTTY RU under your belt. What I would like to see is things that you noticed that

The extra space is a good suggestion. I add the extra space to my call, too, although quite a number of folks logged me as KR1S instead of KR1ST. Both calls are in the master call database and both a

I agree with what you say, Steve. Especially the comment about sending your own call at the end of the report you send the other station. I had stations send me the following: W0RAA 599 AL AL W0RAA.

Absolutely correct! In fact, Writelog requires TWO spaces after a callsign to correctly identify and highlight it. Since there are so many people using Writelog for RTTY, I would put TWO spaces after

Why not simply add ONE carriage return or line feed after your call into your macro? _______________________________________________ RTTY mailing list RTTY@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/

Actually, that is the way I think the macro should be set up. If 3 or 4 stations are calling you, and who you come back gets covered up, if you send 'W7WHY 599 CO W0RAA' the other stations on freque

Because it causes the text with the call sign to jump at the recipient's screen just when they are trying to click on it. That is why many people recommend no newline at the end of sending call signs

With the Cocoa framework of Mac OS X, a text view dynamically creates line breaks when a word extends beyond a line, so a word is never chopped in the middle, unless the word is longer than the line

-- Because a lot of contesters are using N1MM or WF1B logging programs. With these programs, linefeeds cause your callsign to jump up from under the mouse pointer, just as people are about to click.

I think both you and Tom, W7WHY have valid points, Bill from my angle anyhow. I have found that it works best for me putting the station I'm working callsign on both the front and back. As mentioned,

Better yet, with N1MM Logger the Grab command also eliminates the scrolling problem. No need to mouse at all. Hitting the "INSERT" key grabs the last call printed and calls that station. I have a {GR

Writelog has always had the grab as well. Looks like Chen is ahead of the game with selection in the software. Writelog always has worked. WF1B I still have a copy of but haven't used it in years! It

Not sure about N1MM as I haven't mastered that yet but that certainly isn't the case with Writelog Bill, you just hit the Insert Key and it "grabs" the call and moves it to the exchange window. It ha
