[WriteLog] OQP module problems

[Georgek5kg at aol.com]

I experienced the following problems with the OQP contest module:

1.)  Inconsistent operation of the Check Call window.  Normal operation of 
the Check Call window shows all bands on which a station has been logged once 
the last character of the call sign has been entered on the CALL line.   

During the OQP yesterday, I found that entering a call on the CALL line would 
cause inconsistent displays on the Check Call window.  At times it would 
correctly show all other bands on which the station had been logged.  At other 
times, however, it would only show where the station had been logged on one other 
band when the space bar was hit to get to the NR entry.  Then, once ENTER or 
"+" was hit to log the QSO (or F11 to delete the entry), only then did the 
Check Call window show ALL other bands on which the station had been logged.  I 
have not experienced this behavior of the Check Call window with other contest 
modules.  I never was able to discern what conditions would cause the Check 
Call window to respond one way or the other.  Did anyone else notice this?

2.)  When you first open the OQP module, you must fill out the Contest 
Parameter OHIO QSO PARTY SETUP screen with Call, Station Location and Station 
Information.  Once you OK that screen, you then enter the contest module.  On two 
occasions I had to close WL, and later open the OQP module with the same file 
name.  I had to reenter all the information again on the OHIO QSO PARTY SETUP 
screen.  IMHO, this step should be bypassed altogether when reopening an 
existing contest file, since the information has already been supplied.

I appreciate knowing what other OQP'ers experienced with this module.
