I'm writing a tutorial on running the WAE RTTY contest with WriteLog and have a
couple of questions. I've used WriteLog in WAE RTTY
successfully many times but there are a couple of features I have not used.
#1. In my writelog.ini file I have the following:
[WAE]
QTC_FILL_REQ=%s%s PSE NR %d%s
With the Receive QTC window opened and when asking for a repeat of a QTC with
QTC+n (where n=1 through 10 to designate which QTC I
need a fill on), WriteLog sends the callsign of the station I'm working and I
don't want that. In other words, if I'm working DK0EE
and I hit A+1 to send a request to resend QTC #1, it sends:
DK0EE PSE NR 1
How can I get rid of the CALLSIGN at the start of this message?
I've never used this feature (ALT+n). I normally just go live with ALT+K and
type "PSE NR 1 1 1 ". I realize it would be easier to
use ALT+n but having the callsign in the message takes up too much time and is
not necessary.
#2. In the Help file, under the WAE Contest, it says this "ALT+Q, ALT+A, etc.
activate the button with the corresponding letter
underlined as usual with Windows dialogs". What does this mean?
Researching the WriteLog reflector archives and with testing, I've determined
that ALT+Q does the same thing as hitting the QRV
button when either the Send or Receive QTC windows is active. Is it suppose to
do anything else?
ALT+A just closes the Send or Receive QTC dialog windows if they are opened
(same as hitting Cancel). I found something from way
back in 2001 in the archives that said in version 10.28D, that "WAE QTC RX
dialog has no ALT+A accelerator key anymore". All other
posts referencing ALT+A pertain to Antenna to Azimuth. So is ALT+A for WAE
something that got left in the Help file for 14 years but
is no longer used?
Thanks,
Don AA5AU
