[Tlf-devel] TLF arrows

[Daniel Schlieper]

Dear Rein,

TLF is great! Especially the TLF-DDD combination is exactly what I was 
looking for: simple to set up, boots from CD, and is very reliable. It 
even produces Cabrillo output. Thank you very much for making it 
available!

I have one minor point: would it be possible to switch the bands with 
other keys than left/right arrows? I find this counter-intuitive. I don't 
switch bands often (or don't switch them at all, as for the RSGB 80m Club 
Contest). On the other hand, I work QRP, and unfortunately, I have many 
incomplete contacts -- especially on SSB: some OPs have difficulties with 
my prefix. Using the arrow keys, I then go up and left to change the 
serial number to 0000, to mark a "negative" contact. Sometimes, I make the 
mistake to go first left then up, which changes the bands instead.

But I see that this would be quite a change for you and anybody else who 
are used to use the arrow keys for switching the bands. So I could 
understand if you were reluctant to change that. Anyhow, maybe you want to 
include the rules for the RSGB 80m Club Competition? My version is 
attached. For information on the RSGB 80m CC, please see
