[SD-User] Feature Request

Paul -

I hope all is well with you.

I have a request.  I type slowly.  On SSB I can type the call into the 
computer as I say the call at the same time.  I control the timing.  On 
CW I have to complete the call and press enter before It gets sent.  
That produces too much delay when running and a lot of pressure on my 
end.  Thus, I tend to S&P.   I know running is where the big scores are.

I know SD logger has a provision to start sending after you enter three 
letters of the call, but you still need to finish the call within a 
certain time.  More pressure.

I have a suggestion that would make SD really shine for me and others in 
my situation.  No other logger offers this that I am aware of.  The 
suggestion assumes using Winkey, but should do fine with your internal 
keyer.

OK, that's enough build up.  I suggest that SD send the letters of the 
callsign as I type them into the program, but wait until I hit enter to 
send the rest of the exchange.  That way I control the timing.

Thanks for listening.
