If I type in the call the dupe check is done. I know it can copy under 
ideal conditions but when you cannot hear them well or when the speed gets 
outside the range of speeds it is set for it is not very good. I would love 
to have it work. It just does not for me. I have never seen one that does. 
It still makes errors so you have to copy the call yourself to be sure and 
so there you lose your advantage.

Gil, I just used WriteLog in CW mode for the first time in the CW<br>
Sweepstakes - What a blast!&nbsp; It copied everyone almost perfectly -
The only<br>

perfectly almost all the time.&nbsp; Maybe you can COPY in your head, but
after a<br>

mult or not - WriteLog handles all of that in an instant if you're
printing<br>
the CW in the Rttyrite window!<br>
