[UK-CONTEST] Not sending what you key in

[G4LMW]

Hi Roger

But aren't those a RECEIVING error?

I am referring to those that send with paddle rather than rely on the PC to 
send. I record what they sent me but their logger shows something else... I 
lose the points due to their bad sending.

Regards
Rob
