[WT-support] Automatic CQ

[Georgek5kg at aol.com]

Bob, are all of the keyboard commands, like RPTDELAY, published in a  
convenient-to-use list anywhere?  I am always finding out about new ones,  like 
RPTDELAY, that I could use if I only knew about them.

I been running LN2HQ this weekend, and one thing I missed VERY  MUCH… 
enable/disable auto CQ!!! 
Is there any plans to make a ALT – XX function for enable/disable  auto CQ 
without grabbing the mouse.


As DL6RAI and DL5AXX have explained, there are text commands to toggle  
AutoCQ ON and OFF, as well as RPTDELAY, which adjusts the delay between CQs,  
all of which you can do without touching the mouse:


RPTDELAY [Enter] to bring up the dialog
Press [Up] or [Down] keys to adjust delay
Press [Enter] to close dialog


There is no need to dig into the manual to discover these quick text  
command shortcuts.  Just make sure:





Help | Display Text Command Tips for Menu  Items 


 


is CHECKED.  Then, when you hover the mouse pointer for at least two  
seconds over a menu item like Tools | Automatic CQ Repeat, Win-Test will  display 
the equivalent text commands in a "tool tip" pop-up window.


Finally, if you want a single keystroke Alt-1 to turn repeating CQ ON or,  
and Alt-2 to turn repeating CQ OFF, just write a couple of two line LUA  
scripts to issue the text commands:


RPTON.wts:  (Assign to Alt-1)





wtApp:TextCommand("RPT")

 
return -1


 


RPTOFF.wts:  (Assign to Alt-2)





wtApp:TextCommand("NORPT")

 
return -1
