Add the following line to your CT.CFG file:
AUTOSAVE:        ON

To boot directly to the DOS prompt, you need to modify the MSDOS.SYS 
file.  It is really just a hidden, read only, text file and you edit it 
with Notepad after changing the attributes.  See the Yankee Clipper 
Contest Club guidance for details of the changes - it's probably in 
other locations as well.  The AUTOEXEC.BAT file needs to have the path 
to CT specified in a PATH statement.  No changes to the CONFIG.SYS 
file.  Good luck in Field Day.  We'll be K2AE, 5A, ENY.
