[WT-support] R: Advanced SO2R mode on phone doesn't work wellright now

[Luca NCJ]

Bob,

I did not get one thing.

If I have focus on primary radio (let’s say R1 on main window of WT), I
press Alt+D, I insert a call in secondary radio window. This window should
pass highlighted (yellow color background) to allow to insert exchange and
log the qso or I must take it highlighted by pressing the CAPS button?

I am just testing the script without any radio connected to PC so maybe WT
behaviour is not too correct because of this. 

 

TNX

Luca

1. Shift Key (have to keep pressing it to keep focus on the secondary radio)

2. Caps lock key (once it is "on" the focus in on the secondary radio and
remains there until the key if "off")

and (3. Using scripts in messagens to automatically control focus (need
programming scripts))

 

These are features of advanced SO2R specifications!


Yes, but this is no longer working as designed on phone, if you want to
speak something into the microphone and have it transmitted on the secondary
radio.  That is why task #264
<http://flyspray.win-test.com/index.php?id=264&do=details>  was opened
almost a year ago.  Do you (José) agree that it is a bug?

In the old days, I believe, you could press CapsLock, and F4, and then say
something on the second radio by speaking into the mic.  That doesn't work
any more, last time I checked.  This cannot be fixed by using $TR1 and $TR2.

To review:

1.	CapsLock (or Shift) changes data entry focus ONLY, to secondary
radio (it turns yellow)
2.	At this point, if you speak into the mic. or use the paddles, output
goes to primary radio, NOT secondary (this is OK and by design)
3.	Next, press a message key like F4 or F2 to send your call and
exchange, while the secondary radio is highlighted yellow.  This output will
go to the secondary radio (this is OK and by design)
4.	Now at this point, after pressing a message key, if you want send
something more, like a QSY request or a repeat, using the paddles, it works
OK, output goes to the (highlighted) secondary radio.
5.	However, at the same point, if you speak into the microphone, output
goes to the PRIMARY (non-highlighted) radio, and this is the bug.  CW and
Phone should work the same.

QSL?

The complexity of Win-Test's Advanced SO2R techniques for S&P and dupe
checking on the secondary radio led me to create the "AltD" scripts, which
require far fewer keystrokes to accomplish the same thing.  I tried to make
it keystroke compatible with TRlog, for those who are used to it.  It works
with or without ESM mode.

Installation instructions and usage description are at
