David But why, when DX4WIN starts, doesn't it come up automatically with the QSO entry blank? Every time I start DX4WIN I have to hit F9 so the frequency of my radio is received into the QSO window from the radio via the CAT connection and the frequency is sent to my Expert 1K-FA amplifier to set the ATU for the correct frequency sub band. When I first switch on before hitting F9 I hear nothing from my receiver because the ATU is not tuned!
However DX4WIN has always had this problem so I guess it will not get changed any time soon so any further detailed info you could provide about using AutoHotKey to overcome the F9 problem and automatically connect the packet window could be very useful to many of us.

Hopefully this will work better.) I haven't seen it actually log the contact. It does pull up the last entry, but it's filled with all the info (time, date, frequency, etc) from the QSO so it's not in the "ready to log" state. For an overkill solution, you could use AutoHotKey and script it to blank out that field (a few F9's). I use it to set up my "operating environment", which includes connecting the packet window and a few other things.
