Jerry,
I think both WinTest and TR4WIN have only one mode: ESM with different
macros for run and S&P. I don't know if there's any way to turn it off. I
had one guest op come over and he had to install TR4WIN because that's what
he likes. It would drive me crazy. I've used WinTest a couple of times and
was able to use it, but had to be very careful not to do something that it
considered unusual .. which would result in QLF.
Maybe I've just become too comfortable with WL, but I like the idea of me
being in charge of the radio and the conversation. The logger should follow
me. Not the other way around. I suppose like most things, you can get used
to it with time and practice.
