[DXLog.net - Support] ESM mode

[9A5K]

Hi Jose & Bob..

$RSTEXCHSENT and $SETEXCHSENT are not yet implemented in DXLog.net..

Regarding ESM, you're right. Focus shouldn't be moved until $LOGGEDCALL
wasn't sent.
I will correct this in next release.

Also, I will check this behavior in DXpedition mode. Currently DXLog.net in
ESM mode works on the way
that it checks content of the fields, which makes a problem in case of
DXpedition mode, but also in the case
you have Exchange guessing set to Automatically.

I think that this should be changed to check which of the fields has entry
focus, so, if you're in callsign field,
either callsign or CQ should be sent (if callsign field is empty).
Of course, when RCVD fields has focus, if RCVD field isn't mandatory (for
example DXPedition mode), and CALLSIGN
field is properly field, TU message should be sent and QSO will be logged...

I'll fix this for 2.0.17..

Thanks.

73,
Chris - 9A5K
