Here's one confused state that I can replicate 100% of the
time.

with:
auto call terminate = true
auto send character count = 4

Let's say I hear KG4BIG on the s&p radio, but just then N6RT answers my
cq on the run radio, and I quickly type N6RT ALT-D KG4BIG.

What happens is, N6RTKG4BIG goes into the callsign window, and actually
gets transmitted! This sequence is usually followed by stunned silence,
as the calling station tries to figure out what the hell is going on.

The workaround is to wait for the cursor to move to the exchange window
before doing the alt-d, but maybe the program could be changed to avoid
having to remember that.
