I noticed the following problem in the NAQP, Sprint, and ARRL DX
contests. The Control-Enter combination is supposed to log a QSO
without sending any CW, if I understand this correctly. (It used
to be Control-\ which performed this function.)
Usually, this function works OK, but not always. It does not
work under the following scenario (which is actually when I
need it the most!)
1) I am in S&P mode, and I type a call into the window.
2) I call the station by hitting Enter
3) I enter his exchange information
4) I notice I mis-copied his call, and hit the up-arrow to
return to the call window, where I correct his call.
5) I hit Control-Enter to log the QSO.
When I hit Control-Enter at this point, my rig starts sending the
exchange again, instead of "silently" (i.e. without sending CW)
logging the QSO.
Can this be fixed, so that Control-Enter always "silently" logs
the QSO (without sending CW) no matter what? Basically, when I
hit Control-Enter, I expect it to NEVER send any CW, no matter
what 'state' the program is in. Does this make sense? Thanks!
