It is because the QSO has been logged. When you use the ] character,
it sends the information in the RSTSent field of the QSO record for
the QSO in progress. When the QSO gets logged, this information is
cleared - in preparation for the next QSO.
You can work around this by using F2 to send the exchange instead
of RETURN. This will not log the QSO until it is QSLed and then
you can hit RETURN (which will not send the exchange since you
already sent it).
However, it is easy enough to change the program to let you repeat
whatever the last RST sent regardless of the QSO status. This will
be in the next release which I plan on putting out this weekend.
