Mike,

I was just dinking around in the 7th Area QSO Party with my non-contest general logger. I have never used the WL module for this contest so when I saw your email I started up WL, started the module and quickly configured some of the macro memories and worked a few stations. At first I didn't notice anything out of sorts, but as I played with it a bit longer I began notice some delays on send when I press an F key. I didn't really notice a delay when using space to move to the next field, but I do notice a delay when logging the QSO with SHIFT+ENTER. I was also trying to make a few QSOs in the ARI DX Contest, but didn't notice any such problems when running that module. I am also running Vista.

I'm experiencing the same problem I posted about a year ago with regard to the 7th Area QSO Party. I have not experienced similar symptoms on any other contest module. Last year I was using version 10.84D and this year I'm using 11.06A. Same exact problem.There is a distinct slowness in the module.

Typing in a field does not produce visible keystrokes on the screen for a half second and pressing an F key to send a CW message results in the message being sent a half second later. Other functions are also slow such as hitting the space bar to change fields and clicking on a spot in the band map. As before I have tried closing all other programs and restarting my PC (Vista). No improvement. Am I again the only person experiencing this problem? Is anybody else using WriteLog for this contest?
