Hi to Doug ("more than just curious" - now wouldn't THAT be good in the
FRIEND.INI file???) and the group........

For what it is worth, I often use Alt-F7 (in WF1B) to alter the exchange on
the fly, depending on conditions.
I too got asked for repeats from time to time, and then changed my report to
500-001-001-001.
That third report can often make the difference, as I often got 599-001-002,
and you then wonder which is correct!

I don't know if WL supports changing on the fly, (I guess so), but I usually
change according to needs and conditions. I did note that there were a lot
of:
599/001
599/001 
which made it a bit more difficult on occasions, as when asked for a repeat,
they simply sent the same exchange several times. I have Shift-F2 set to
send <call> UR 001-001-001-001-001-001 QSL BK, which is (I think) better.

If you remove the dash, then it often comes up as TOOAPPQAPPQ where the A is
the more often received character, but it could be anything.

I guess it comes down to whether you feel comfortable in editing the files
to reflect the conditions.

73 for now, 
Phil GU0SUP
