I was playing along as best I could due to medical problems in CQ WW RTTY
on 15 Meters only.  Somewhere around 1405 UCT and 300+Qs I blew it. 
While working a station, I thought I'd clicked on Beam Headings to move
the window when a message box popped up.  I noticed there was only one
option displayed to click.  Since I was in the middle of a contact I did
not fully read the message, but instead clicked on the one option
displayed.  That was a major mistake as I wound up with a log containing
only the station I was working and the other 300 Qs were gone!!!

I've used WriteLog since back in the version 9 days.  I thought I knew
the ins and outs but evidently I don't!  Major lesson learned.  No mater
what is happening, take the time to read the message and try hitting the
escape key!
