Well Dick hit it right on the head.  There was an 'L' at the end of the F3 macro.

I copied the macro's from last year CQWPX RTTY.  I guess I added it and forgot about it.

Thanks

Somewhere in that F3 macro you had a %L command, Joe.  That should be
the only thing that would log the Q.

This weekend during the WPXRTTY contest I noticed something that I had
never experienced before.  I was S&P and I used F-5 to call the station
and then F-3 SendCallExchangeKey to send my report.  What happened was
as soon as I hit the F-3 Key Writelog logged the QSO.  Before I always
had to hit the Enter key to log the qso.  I tried this on 3 different
versions of WL and it worked the same on all of them.  So this would
leave me to believe it was a "enhancement" in the WPXRTTY module.  I
wonder if anyone else had this happen?

It did save a keystroke but it made me get the serial number in the log
before I hit F-3.

I am not complaining, once I figure out what was going on it was pretty
neat.
