[WT-support] WPX CW 2008 reflections

[Tõnno Vähk]

:)

1. I want to use S&P mode in order to be able to use S&P Options: Automatically (the menu though says automagically:)) WIPE THE QSO and POPULATE THE BAND MAP. Also in the next WT version I want to use S&P mode to disable AUTOSEND and AUTOCQ.

I DON'T WANT to use S&P mode for different messages. The same messages are perfectly fine- Mostly Callsign from F4 and report from F2 - that is what you need. Having different set of messages creates confusion.

So given that I need to rewrite the messages every time before every contest and given that S&P messages have to be set separately now I would at least like to have an option to replicate S&P messsages from RUN messages. And a simple button of ignoring S&P messages and using RUN messages in both modes would be just great.

2. I am not a programmer and I am sorry but I read your posts very calmly and carefully:) In my mind there are two issues here. One is user's ability to set his own default CW messages that come up for every contest file he uses. The other issue is like Bob suggested having option to synchronize CW messages over networked computers having one computer a master (like time for example). Or then have a menu item that allows you to copy messages to all other computers in the network when executed and not being synchronized later any more. That is better of course - just having this button to send the set CW messages from one computer to all the other computers in the network. So I am quite uncertain as to how easy it is to program either of those features but I am quite certain that those are two different issues we are talking about here:)

Unfortunately I am unable to attend FHN this year as we have ES hams summer meeting during this weekend. Everybody is welcome of course:)

I'm sorry, but I don't get it...

If you want to ignore the S&P messages, just don't use this mode, and 
don't enable it (Tools / Data entry / Enable RUN/S&P switching) ! Can 
you elaborate, please ?

This is called roaming profiles.

Just re-read (calmly) the last sentences of my last post abt that.

And see you in FHN (I hope so ?)
