Go to Rttyrite > TU Type > TNC Setp and un-check "AFC OFF/ON w/CALL".

Enabling this options turns AFC off when there is a callsign in the CALL field of the Entry Window. Best to always disable (un-check) this option.

Subject: [WriteLog] more info on RTTY problem

Last night I made sure that all MMTTY instances on this computer were deleted and a new 1.68 full version installed. I then used the .icx to join it to WriteLog. I went through and set up MMTTY in AFSK, using 915 mark frequency, 170 Hz, etc. I made sure ATC, AFC were unchecked. All looked good until the first time I logged a new QSO. The AFC button depressed (like magic) and the Mark frequency began floating. I never had this with version 11.

I looked at keyboard shortcuts menu to see if there was anything related to the “enter” key. As an after thought, I hit “set default.” No joy.

I looked at the MMTTY setup window on MMTTY and saw nothing related to the interaction between “enter” and AFC. I’m at a loss. The .ini file was inherited from version 11 and I had no such problem before. Something is weird. Any ideas?

Rig is K3/Alpha 87A; computer uses Windows 7; everything works great on CW modes. If there is no data in the entry window and I hit “enter,” it does not invoke AFC. But, if there is data, and I log it by hitting “enter” it will “push” the AFC button every time. It is as if the log function and AFC invocation function are conjoined.
