Friends,
do we _really_ need this? How many Aurora reports do you log during a 24 hr
event? (Me: none, I'm at 50 deg N) Why not put a <Ctl-N>ote into the log for
that and edit it afterwards if the log checker needs it?
I think this will be program code that has to stay in memory all of the time
(needed to process any keystroke) and will take quite some lines. Remember,
we still have to have the whole program, all our log data AND the partials
list (and DOS) in those first 640K of memory!
Also I fear the program might get confused when deciding between Aurora
report or domestic QTH etc.
