These two things came to me during or just after the contest.


1.  When using the programmed CQ (Ctl-Q/Ctl-C), it would be neat to have the
CQ automatically resume after the programmed  waitime after the end of the
QSO.

        CTL-Q, select message to use, select wait time.
        Enter calling station's call stops programmed CQ
        Work the station
        Hit ENTER or \
        If a station calls, work him as one normally would, else
                wait the selected wait time
                automatically resume CQing

I haven't thought too deeply about this.  But, every time I used Ctl-C to
resume CQ'ing, I wondered if it wouldn't be possible to modify TRLog to
resume automatically.  ESC would, of course, retain it's function to turn
off auto CQ.

2.  Post names the summary sheet summary.dat.  Can Post be changed to name
the summary sheet whatever the .dat filename is?

I know some folks keep all their contest files in contest specific folders
and such, but I'm lazy and just leave everything in the trlog folder.

For the ARRL 10m Contest, I named the contest 02tencw when setting up the
contest files.  It would simplify things if TRLog Post would just name the
summary sheet (filename).sum.  Is that a problem?
