Except that, as I said in my original message, I’m usually in my log book at that point, or looking at their QRZ page, or looking at a map to see who I contacted and where. So by the time I get switched back to WSJT-X and click “Enable Tx”, it’s too late for my message to be decoded on the other end. So they end up sending a third “RRR”.
I guess it comes down to the definition of “Auto” in “Auto Seq”. If the software on the other end is looking for my “73” to end the sequence, I would expect that to be handled automatically. Otherwise we should reliable the checkbox “Semi-Auto Seq”. :) -Tim KD0GYG > On Jul 18, 2017, at 4:10 PM, Bill Somerville <[email protected]> wrote: > > On 18/07/2017 22:56, Tim Carlson wrote: >> Not sure how it’s QRM to try to finish the Auto Seq.
