[WT-support] sending QTC´s WAEDC

Jorge,

You have it correct, though you would have to press [UP arrow] then F6 to
repeat the callsign.  The yellow line always highlights what will be sent.

Another option:  if you think you will need to send a lot of repeats,
instead of pressing [Insert] to send each QTC, you can use [Enter] instead.
That sends the QTC but does *not* move the yellow line down.

There are two buttons on the screen:

[INS ... Send QTC ++]
[CR  ... Send QTC   ]

The "++" means "and move to the next QTC"
"CR" stands for "Carriage Return" (from the old days of typewriters and
mechanical TTY machines).  Today it means "Enter."

If you use [Enter] to send a QTC, you have to press [Down Arrow] then
[Enter] to send the next one.

In sum, use [Insert] to send each QTC when you think the other station has
good copy.  Use [Enter] and [Down Arrow] when they don't, as that will make
it easier to send repeats.

73,
