[WriteLog] MMTTY 1.63 Problem Summary

[Jim McDonald]

I noticed that too.  I also don't know if it was a display problem only or
the transmission actually went as displayed.

In addition to the original problem, I experienced a possible "bug" (??)
with WL, MTTY 1.63 and Windows 98 when using the F keys. About 25% of the
time, upon depressing an F key, the first 2 to 3 characters that were sent
appeared as "junk" characters on my screen. I have no reason to suspect that
those characters weren't sent.

Not sure if anyone else had this problem, as this is the first time I have
used WL. I had a great time in the contest too. I have much to learn, but
with all the help offered by this great group of people, I know that I will!

Happy New Year to all,

Al WB2JEP
