I lost one too, and didn't notice till I had quit the program. Found
several others before exiting and just scrolling back through the buffer
till I found them. I have the buffer set to some ridiculously high number
just so I can do just that. Very nice feature if I would just look harder
before exiting. No software glitches that I know of. No monitor on FSK with
the 570, so I don't know if I had the "dead key" problem. Thanks to
everyone for being there.
