[WriteLog] responding with 'R' <gridsquare> to a CQ

[Kevin Rowett]

During the practice session, I didn’t have any trouble with getting responses.  Today during the test, it seems to cause problems, and I don’t see others using  the ‘R” on the initial reply to a CQ solicitation.

In calling CQ, I didn’t see any callers respond ot me that way.

Thanks Don.
