Thanks Gary and everyone who responded,
Mine did already work in VERY small increments but be advised to those wishing
to try this is that you must be clicked on the QSO entry window box when you
scroll the mouse.
I am running an SO2R setup with a pair of FT-920 yaesu's and was initially
trying the mouse wheel while clicked into one of the Band Maps (found out that
it does not work there.)
I added the line in the writelog.ini file's [Configuration] section as Gary
suggested,
MOUSE_WHEEL_HZ=100 (I went with 100 hz for each click)
For me 100 hz will likely be perfect for contesting and using the DX Cluster,
I'll experiment with 50 hz vs 100 hz.
I am a DX Cluster junky, to me that's a lot of fun.
Many if not most if not all DX spots during the contest are spotted to within
100hz I find.
So when I double click on the spot I am close but necessarily dead on.
This will be great to not have to reach back to the rig to fine tune.
Too cool! Thanks for the heads up guys.
I love Writelog!
Any other little contesters Writelog tricks out there that I don't know about?
