[WriteLog] F-keys on working for RTTY at PJ2

[Gary AL9A]

What keyboard are they using?  I have this happen occasionally because my MS 
Natural Keyboard has a key labeled "F Lock" just to the right of the F12 
key.  If I fat finger the keys the F Lock key invokes alternate commands 
from all the F keys and I can no longer send macros in any mode, not just 
RTTY.  If I hit the F Lock key again everything returns to normal.

73,
