Hi Team,

Change Request:  Do not reset an in-progress QSO from TX3 to TX1 when your 
called station responds to another station on the same RX frequency with RRR or 
RR73.  Stations often interleave multiple QSOs resulting in a situation where 
you are sending TX3, but the partner is sending TX4 (RRR) to their other party 
in progress.  This results in the sequence resetting to TX1 starting the QSO 
all over again. Quickly switching the message back to TX3 is now mid 
transmission or next transmission thus wasting a decode cycle adding 30 seconds 
to the exchange, perhaps losing a contact in busy and fading conditions.

Example
AA1BBB K7MDL EL87
K7MDL AA1BBB -09
AA1BBB K7MDL R-04
-->CC2DDD AA1BBB RR73 - partner sending RR73 to another station on same 
frequency
-->AA1BBB K7MDL EL87 - program switched to TX1 - rush to change to TX3 (AA1BBB 
K7MDL R-04) mid or late period
Here I react as fast as I can to click TX3 back on.  Too late, have to wait a 
another cycle for a clean message to be sent.
K7MDL AA1BBB -09  - now redundant message - he received who knows what or TX1.
AA1BBB K7MDL R-04 - now redundant message
K7MDL AA1BBB RR73 - now can complete
AA1BBB K7MDL 73

This scenario and scenarios where the other station did not get a 73 and keeps 
requesting one after RR73 or was sent ending the sequence on my side results in 
me needing to turn off Auto Seq, and too often I forget to turn it back on, 
realizing it after I notice a calling station getting the only my TX1 for 
several periods.  My bad, but happens to often.

Thanks!

Mike, K7MDL
