[WT-support] ARRL DX

[HRS I4UFH]

Hi Laurent,

Thank's for workaround, but really is funny that everyone has in mind ? as
wild card chr and WT need to redifines keys because of french based keyboard
layout and Shift way to fill 2nd Radio window.

Really stuck to use this approach for 2nd radio , it's based on a French
keyboard were numbers are shift in reverse order of standard keyboard.

Redefine a keys is a way to shortcut sequence of keys on a one more usable
key, mainly on laptop compact keyboard.
Isn't there a different approach to access to the 2nd Entry windows ?
Pressing Shift need two hands to fill 2nd radio windows, and frequently you
don't have time to think and need a fast way to fill 2nd window.

Thank's again for the help
