As I learned a few weeks ago, Bill Gates' infernal device will do it too, when it downloads a 'patch' and reboots twice during the night, over writing the temporary file that holds your 'automatically saved' Q's that you forgot to actually (Alt-S) save. Thus I have gotten into the habit of doing Alt-S after each completed contact. Not viable for contesting, but acceptable for DXing. That's why I suggested the programmable key method. Seems like a patch is in order, but does not seem to be in the queue. Bob, W5LT
