Hi Jim,

Try the approach I posted a while back....

The ability to place the call of stations heard on the BANDMAP display
with a single keystroke is a useful function.  I found a way to do
this by accident while experimenting with the "%B" feature within
function key message buffers.

Click on SETUP and CW/RTTY/SSB MESSAGES within Write Log.  Fill in
the desired function key buffer with:

        %B

That is the percent sign and the letter B with no spaces.

While tuning the band with a frequency control interfaced radio,
fill in the callsign of a station heard in the CALL field of the
QSO ENTRY window and hit the function key you programmed above.
A dupe check will be performed on the callsign and the station's
call and frequency will be added to the BANDMAP display.  The
QSO ENTRY window will reflect NEW STATION, MULT or DUPE as
appropriate but NOTHING will be sent by your transmitter.
