[WT-support] QTCs "in stock" needed

[Nick J. Sinanis F5VIH/SV3SJ]

Why type any character and not the serial number (or other exchange) you 
get from the CQ calling station?

If you type the serial you've got, WT sends what would have sent had you 
typed the callsign also.

It's bad practice anyway to respond to a cq with your call and your 
serial number.
