[WriteLog] CW sends gibberish sometimes

[k2qmf at juno.com]

Hello All,

I had the exact problem during the SS contest!!!
I have had it happen at times during other CW contests as well...
I would have to hit "Esc" then resend the exchange..

Please post any replies...

Thanks in advance,
73,
Ted  K2QMF
