[WT-support] Partner Mode - confusion and question

[Tim Duffy K3LR]

Thanks Olivier! REALTIME partner mode will be perfect. Just like CT Partner mode.


Will also need to do something about the INSERT and + keys so that it is the exact same
action as CT.

INSERT in CT for CW advances the cursor to the report field and sends the CALL (who you
are working) +  memory F2 (the report message)

Also the + key for CW must log the QSO and send memory F3 (the qrz message)

I think this is key mapping or is it easier?

I hope this is not a problem for WinTest to act the same as CT on CW memories so our
operators will not suffer confusion in the heat of the battle!

Thanks and 73!
