[RTTY] Take Two RTTY Exchange

[Jurgen Geldhof]

Hi Ron (and the list),

of course I know about the 32 or so extra macros available (and even 
more using Autohotkey) but those don't help if you're using Enter Sends 
Message and you need to send a longer because of band conditions. The 
only way is to change the macros used by ESM once in a while during the 
contest.

But maybe I could find a way with autohotkey to reprogram the macros 
with one keystroke :-\ :-\

Something to try out :-)
