Hi there Zoli!

The pressing enter twice issue wouldn't have been much of an issue itself, to 
be sure, but it was that it was erasing data the first time around that made 
it difficult to work with.

I believe it was S&P mode - I didn't ever switch it or wind up calling CQ 
anyway, so if it defaults to S&P mode then that would have been it.

I could try grabbing the code from git and seeing if it's affected the same 
way or not - I may have a chance to (very casually) work the RAC Canada Day 
contest this weekend, so could be fun to test TLF again.

Thanks and 73,
Adam
