Yes, I know about the space bar. It's no big deal as it is, but look at it this way:
Currently you type in a call, space, type QSO # space Power space space Check
space Section. The new technique would merely save one space (and would be
worse if a callsign correction was required, but that information was not given until the
"normal" time for giving the callsign). At the time I read the post it seemed logical, but no one
seems gung ho about it. However, in an attempt to pour oil on troubled waters, how
about the software recognizing 93A as the QSO # and Power and handling it without
the space being needed? Full parsing is unnecessary. Many folks send that info in
one fell swoop, however.

I believe it's documented both in the manual and the on-line help.  Simply
use the space bar instead of the tab key to get from the call sign field
to the received serial number...
