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 field for corrections. Normally in your input sequence (TAB and then ENTER) the exchange is kept intact but you have to press ENTER twice. ARRLFD is a little bit special here. It sets the RECALL_MULTS keyword automatically and tries to find an already known exchange from having worked the station on other band or from an INITIAL_EXCHANGE file to fill it in. If TLF has no information about the exchange field it clears the exchange field and that is what you can observe. So best would be to always use the ENTER key to switch to the next state of the QSO. As a sidenote: Maybe we should rethink the behaviour of the RECALL_MULTS and it should only pick up old exchange if the comment field is empty. 73, de Tom DL1JBE Am Sun, 30 Jun 2019 08:48:12 -0700 schrieb Adam Clark <va7...@isurf.ca>: > 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 entry to the exchange > fields, pressing Enter in the exchange field is logging on the first > try. > > I have attached my logcfg.dat and arrlfd as requested, too. > > Thanks! > 73, > Adam > > On Saturday, June 29, 2019 9:56:20 AM PDT Csahok Zoltan wrote: > > Hi Adam, > > > > Thanks for the update.
