Hi Thomas,
That's very interesting - and this past weekend I was working the RAC Canada
Day contest a bit (and I likely have some questions soon about how to build an
appropriate rules file as well) and I didn't experience the same behaviour.
However, I hope that the tab vs. enter bit is
Thanks Tom for the clarification! It's indeed RECALL_MULTS that interferes
when used with Tab instead of Enter. I was able to reproduce it with Adam's
setup, while in my case it worked as I wasn't using this feature.
(and was using the Enter+Enter sequence)
btw while testing I realized that

Hi Adam and Zoli,
maybe I can add some additional information related to the exchange
problem.
Adam as Zoli told you the normal sequence is just to press ENTER after
entering the call and again after the exchange. TAB is mostly to allow
you to come back to the call input field from the exchange
Hi Zoli,
Upon further testing, if I use the following sequence:
- input call
- Hit Tab to move the cursor to the exchange field
- Input exchange
- Hit Enter
The exchange is erased and upon re-entering the exchange and pressing Enter,
it is logged.
If, I use Enter to move from the call sign
Hi Zoli,
Sorry, I believe you wanted clarity on that previously and I forgot to add it
in. I will test again later and let you know for sure, but I *believe* it was
exactly the sequence you described, though it is possible I'm using tab to
move to the exchange field and am not remembering
Hi Adam,
Thanks for the update. I also tried it with Konsole (v18.04.0, KDE 5.54)
and the cursor keys worked.
For the FD issue: is this the sequence that you use?
- input call
- Enter << cursor moves to exchange field
- input exchange
- Enter << here your exchange gets erased, QSO is not logged
Hi again Zoli,
Just thought I'd let you know that I tested with the git version of tlf, and
adding some test entries (still using the field day setup/config), I have to
re-enter the exchange each time.
However, cursor keys work, so that's a bonus!

Hi there Zoli!
The pressing enter twice issue wouldn't have been much of an issue itself, to
be sure, but it was that it was erasing data the first time around that made
it difficult to work with.
I believe it was S mode - I didn't ever switch it or wind up calling CQ
anyway, so if it
Hi Adam,
Glad to hear that you used TLF during the FD. We strive improving it,
so any feedback (including bugs reports, of course) is welcome.
The issue (or at least something similar) in SSB mode I've also experienced:
one had press Enter twice to get the QSO logged. Now, however, I was not
