9.81 and found it very good.   I make extensive use of the new CWAUTO
feature. Great, no more fumbling around for my normal F1 (CQ), F2
(EXCH), F3 (TU) just keep hitting space or enter.   Fantastic.

often couldn't remember if I was in CWAUTO mode or not - I needed to
turn it off for S+P.

I tried CWAUTO myself briefly from EI0R (IRTS HQ Station), and I think
a single-key toggle is needed.  Also, the way it's implemented it's
not easy to log a dupe should you want to (I always log them).
Perhaps I should arrange for another memory (F4) to play when you hit
enter after a dupe callsign?  F4 could be whatever dupe message you
choose.

screen please ?

Yes, I'll work on that.

IOTA - for information: SDI V9.81 locks up (loops) if, with LOGONENTER
enabled, you try to record a different IOTA Reference for an island
station already logged.  I'll have a fix for that by Wednesday
evening.
