[DXLog.net - Support] SO2R F-keys best practice?

[Ken K6MR]

Something is definitely not right with your installation. I use Ctrl-Alt-Fx all the time.  I don’t use “shift binds to other radio” so can’t comment on that. I change radios with the arrow keys.

I started a new CQWW WPX and all ok here. Ctrl-F1/Ctrl-F2 should change modes. WPX has cw and ssb defined so it should toggle between modes.

Are you running the latest version  (2.3.4) ? If you are I would do a repair install. Otherwise upgrade to latest and try again.

UPDATE

While in Advance SO2R mode  I have tried the
"Shift Binds to opposite radio" and the F-keys does not go to the other
radio, only the alphanumeric keys.

I have also programmed the "Other CW message"s, reached by Alt-C with CQ
etc.,
but the messages are unreachable by the Ctrl-Alt-Fx, which is mentioned in
the
manual, see http://dxlog.net/docs/index.php/Menu_Commands#CW_messages

I something broke or am I doing something else wrong?

I think also I have found a bug. I pushing Ctrl-F1 the program returns an
Unhandled Exception error with a long
error message in the dialogue.

The contest I am fiddling with is CQ WPX CW.


Any hints on what to do?
