Gary gave you some good information. There is one other thing that got me from
time to time.
You need to change/update your Super Partial call file. This is the file that
has all the callsigns in for rtty and is used for the most part to highlight
the callsigns. In the past, I have forgotten this and left the one for CW/SSB
selected and noticed that most calls were not selected.
So please go to:
http://www.supercheckpartial.com/
and down load RTTY Master Files (August 9, 2010), file mastertty.dta
Writelog help file will tell you how to access it.
Good Luck, see you in CQWWRTTY!!

Hans,
Your memory is correct, the WL Rittyrite window highlights calls (most of
the time!) in various colors. Yellow = Multiplier, Green = Good to work, no
mult and Red = Dupe. Have you set up your contest parameters yet? WL needs
to know your State and Zone so it can determine the status of incoming
spots.
Once you get the call high lighting working remember in RTTY the Insert key
has a different behavior. If you're running and a call is high lighted in
the Rittyrite window, pressing Insert will populate that call in the CALL
field of the Entry window and send your exchange. With V10.79D the cursor
will also now jump to the next field, in this contest the RST field. If
there are multiple calls high lighted the Insert key function will grab a
Multiplier first regardless of how they were received. If no mults are high
lighted the Insert key will take the LAST high lighted call received. In
this case I prefer to manually click on the FIRST call received to put it
into the CALL field and then hit Insert to dupe check the call and send the
exchange. The Insert key will never take a dupe call.
73,
Gary AL9A
