I'm in the process of getting ready for NAQP-RTTY and have run into a problem
with my F-Key message file. I created a custom file by exporting the default file
and renaming it. After making a few changes I saved it and it worked just great.

Later I again opened the file and made another change. I wanted to increase the
time diddles ran before sending text, the macro went into text almost without any
diddle time at all with the default settings. After TX and enter I added a couple spaces
before the next entry and did this to all the F-Key entries..
Testing didnt seem to produce anything so I again edited the file and removed the extra
spaces. Before removing the spaces the macro worked just fine just didnt seem to add
the extra diddle time I wanted. after saving the file I have a tx problem. Any time I hit an
F-Key it sends the stored info and returns to RX, then it keys up again and sends with
a return to RX and just keeps repeating and the only way to stop it is switch from which
ever operating style (Run or S and P) to the opposite style.  This problem now happens
in both my new custom file and the default file which I did not edit. I've closed N1MM and
reopened several times but the problem continues.

Please help
