[WT-support] Annoying bug in RAEM

Hi Wintest-user,

Just finished RAEM. There is a very annoying bug:

The exchange of RAEM consists of two parts: a serial number and a
coordinate. Wintest uses for them two separated fields. Suppose, a
station is calling you and you type the callsign in callsign field.
Then you hit space-key and the cursor jumps to the field for the serial
number. Unfortunately you are not able to copy the number and so you
will try to receive the second part of the exchange, the coordinate. So
you hit the space-key again and you type the coordinate into the
coordinate-field. Now you send "nr?" to the station and hit space-key
two times to land in the field for the serial number again.

Bug 1: What happens now? The coordinate you typed in before is
deleted!

Now, you are in luck and the station repeats apart the serial number
also  the coordinate. After inserting the serial number you hit the
space-key again for coordinate field.

Bug 2: Now you are not able to insert anything! And also a round trip
with 3 space-keys doesn't help more :-(

Using Win-Test 4.9.1.
