[TRLog] TR Log Wish List

[Ron D. Rossi]

I would like to add a two "bug fix" comments.

1) When ctrl-J option is selected to not display spots already worked using 
ctrl-end to scroll through the list seems to include the unshown spots. It is 
really not usable. This is a long standing issue which I forgot about. It set 
the display to unworked only and briefly panicked when the spot list whigged 
out and did not send me to the right spot.

2) With all spots displayed I locked up spot navigation by right arrowing off 
the right of the screen. Escape got me back to normal operation and I could 
ctrl-end back and more carefully navigate the spots. I don't know if this only 
happened when all the columns of spots were full or not.


Also maybe the answer to the "split" issue is to send an "unsplit" (if there 
is one) to the radio, then handle the spot?
