Send WAE QTC traffic on CW
The QTC window took traffic down and read it out of the log, but nothing left the window: on CW the operator had to send the lines by hand. It now puts them on the air through the entry window's keyer, the way N1MM's QTC window sends through its own entry window, so the same macros are expanded and the same transmitter is pointed at first. Sending a series: Send Hdr keys the header, Send1 to Send10 key one line each — the time, the callsign and the serial number — and Close keys the TU message when one is set. Taking one down: Hdr Agn asks for the header again, and shift with Enter in a box asks for that one field again and clears it. The messages and their defaults are N1MM's: AGN TIME, AGN CALL, AGN SERIAL, the hard-coded HDR AGN with its two spaces, and a TU that sends nothing until the operator writes one. So is the field spacing, written N1MM's way with S for a space. All five are in Setup, where the note about the missing settings used to be. Nothing is sent on SSB or RTTY. N1MM plays four recordings on SSB and sends RTTY from its digital window, and there is neither here, so on those modes the buttons move the cursor as before. RX Ready sends nothing on any mode, because a recording is all N1MM ever sends from it. Serial numbers go out as digits: N1MM can send cut numbers and nothing here does, in any message. Driven under Xvfb against a fake cwdaemon, in a WAE CW contest with four contacts logged. Sending, it keyed QTC 1/2, 2257 DL1AAA 01, 2257 DL2BBB 01, then QTC 2/2 with its two lines and TU DE W1ABC on close. Receiving, HDR AGN, AGN TIME, AGN CALL and AGN SERIAL.

**The QTC window transmits on CW only.** The header, the lines, the TU and the

QRV, Agn, Cfm and TU — and sends RTTY from its digital window, and this program

messages for Agn and TU, its SQTC field spacing, its four SSB recordings, and

its RTTY message templates. Those wait on a transmit path.
