There is another mode I was thinking of and that is without the  
function keys we have something like this...

Fast Keyboard Logging for Contesters:

    1. Enter call.
    2. Hit return (this does a lookup).
    3. One <tab> takes you to SRX numeric. STX auto-increments (set  
in Prefs Panel)
    4. Hit <shift><command> L this logs the call and highlights call  
text.
    5. <command> K clears all the fields and repositions the cursor  
to the Call Sign field. - Ready for 1 again.

     * Power, RST Sent, and RST Received fields are remembered across  
sessions and not cleared since they are hand entered and not found in  
a look up.

You are welcome David. Tone does not always come across correctly in  
email - I am not angry or upset - just struggling to arrive at the  
optimum solution for all the users.
