[Trlog] Dueling CQs

[Robert Brandon]

Do you mean dueling CQs or auto CQ?  Dueling CQ is an SO2R function that
sends alternating CQs on the two radios.  Auto CQ is a one radio function
that just repeats a CQ automatically after a pause.

I use Ctrl-Hypen to launch dueling CQs and it seems fine.  (I used 6.92 last
weekend.)  You can adjust the speed while it's running.

Alt-Q configures auto CQ (which message, delay time), and Alt-C toggles it
on and off.  I'm not sure how those commands might interact with the dueling
CQ function.  

With auto CQ running, I don't believe there's any way to change the speed.
Page-Up and Page-Down adjust the time delay before the next CQ.  If you want
to change the speed, hit ESC to cancel auto CQ, change the speed, then hit
Alt-C to restart auto CQ.

The dueling CQ feature has two problems:

1.  It does not force TR-Log into CQ-mode.  If TR-Log was in S&P mode before
Alt-Q is invoked, it stays in that mode and when you answer the first
station, your S&P message is sent, not the CQ exchange message.

2   The CW speed is fixed at about 25 WPM.  At least, I couldn't figure out
how to change it.  TR-Log still reports 35 WPM (or, whatever) on the screen
and allows speed adjustments to normal CW, but reverts to this fixed,
unchangeable speed for Dueling-CQs.
