Re: [Gpredict-discussion] Manual Mode FT-817 Engage issue

[Frank G <wa...@gm...>]

Alex,

I have tried using the spacebar to go back to RX but the ft-817 will have
already been unkeyed after the mic PTT is released. I have also attempted
to hit space bar again but by then it is disengaged. If the last thing
clicked was ENGAGE ( which it usually is ) the space bar will sometimes
re-click the ENGAGE  which is a good thing.

Its no big deal if a second space bar tap or mouse click is necessary to
re-engage. It is a small thing to do to be able to enjoy a great program to
get on the sats.

Thanks again.
Frank
