[WriteLog] SO2R with Writelog

I need some help again to make something work on my MK2R+ with 
Writelog. I had this problem a year ago, but was told that it should 
work when Writelog implements support for the MK2R.

Now I am running Writelog 10.65C that should have support for the 
MK2R but the problem is still there. Here is what happens.

I have a CQ TEST in F1.

I have "K5NA" in F4.

I am running in SO2R mode and using auto repeat (3 seconds) and auto 
resume to send the F1 CQ on radio one.

The headphones are switching and I am listening on radio two when 
transmitting on radio one.

I use the "shift arrow" key to move the keyboard focus from radio one 
to radio two. Radio one continues to call CQ with the transmit focus 
still there.

I decide to drop my call in on radio two using the F4 key.

This is where things go wrong.

When I hit F4, radio one only stops for an instant. The PTT switches 
to radio two and then immediately back to radio one. Nothing is sent 
on radio two even though the PTT was made briefly.

Radio one has immediately started CQing again. When that CQ completes 
there is no pause and another CQ starts immediately. Then, finally, 
after the second CQ the 3 second delay will be injected between CQs 
again. Then it starts CQing normally with the 3 second delay between CQs again.

With the auto CQ and auto resume on, I cannot send on the second 
radio by moving the keyboard focus there.

Is there something that I have missed in the Router or Writelog that 
makes this work correctly? I have been playing with settings and 
reading material and I can't get any ideas.

I am cross posting this to Microham in case it is a MK2R or Router issue.
