For now, you have to use Ctrl-Enter (or Ctrl-J like CT). Don't forget 
you can remap these keys.

This is consistant with the Ctrl Up/Down and Ctrl-Space combinations 
used for navigating in the bandmap or getting the current spot.

Already suggested and we'll try to add it for the coming SSB leg ;-)

As Olivier F5MZN coded this part of the program, I let him answer.

This time is fully settable up to 60 mins in the Bandmap / Properties 
dialog.

It already should work ! The run freq (= the return freq) is defined as 
being the last freq where you called CQ by using the F1 key.

Not so easy (and ugly) to mix plain and bold font for this part of the 
window. We'll see what we can do (if it is *really* useful).

You mean, as a "static text" ?

José CT1BOH needs them ;-)

One more job for the right-clickers addicts ! Noted.

Tnx for the kind words.
