[SD-User] N for 9 When Sending a Real Signal Report, etc.

I am using SDX to log and to send "canned" CW now.
Most of my my sent RST's are not 599.  If not sending
the default 599, the RST sent uses the number 9 for T9
instead of the abbreviation N.  Is there a way to
overcome this?  Sending 9 instead of N for T9 is a
significant time waster for me in pileups when most of
my contacts are not 599.  

Is there any way to make SDX default to the previous
RST sent?  As the propagation ebbs and flows, I often
have runs of many consecutive contacts with the same
RST.  It would be nice not to have to type in numbers
every time when there is no change in the report sent.

Is there any way to obtain a few more CW memories?  I
am spoiled after having used TR Log for so long.  It
had more CW memory slots than I needed.  Because of a
neural problem, it has become necessary for me to rely
on computer generated CW. Having a few more CW
memories available would help very much.

The instructions imply that by changing a number in
the config. file from zero to a given number of
seconds of delay time one can set the program up for
an automatically repeating CQ.  I have not been able
to get this to work.  How does one invoke this
function after changing the number?
