One thing you can do is set this setting.

INITIAL EXCHANGE CURSOR POS = AT START

This will put the cursor before the QTH and this might make it
eaiser to type over.

The other thing would be to turn off the Initial exhcange and 
use the USER INFO SHOWN command instead.

You will get to see what is in the TRMASTER file - but it 
will not put it in the exchange field.
