Absolutely, I used Alt R <TAB>, same thing basically, but if you 
forget, boy have you got a mess to clear up while the QTCs keep 
coming at 35wpm!


In fact I found using Alt S for the QSL, and Alt Q for the QRV 
message  to be very cumbersome, and I therefore programmed a couple 
of spare F ( not shifted of course) keys for this purpose. Of course 
this can be done by the operator so no modifications are required.


One other thing I found to be very dangerous was that pressing return 
terminated the procedure without an escape route. Because the 
functions are used so infrequently, I found it a great temptation to 
hit<ENTER> to start a new line in the QTC box. It would be nice ( 
although hardly high priority) if this key could be  a writelog.ini 
function.
