I figured out my issue with the auto sequencing stopping at RRR. It does not
have anything to do with with prompt to log pop up. I had Disable TX after
sending 73 checkmarked in Settings/General tab. For some reason, it is
disabling TX after sending RRR instead.

Subject: RE: [wsjt-devel] Prompt to log QSO when either RRR or 73 is sent
I don’t know for certain why this was changed in the first place except the
JT65 HF crowd is always looking for a way to sidestep a sequence to shorten the
time for a QSO. This does not work in the meteor scatter VHF world where you
are relying on random data bits to fly in on a meteor for less than 1 second
and you are trying to decode just what the guy on the other end has received.
If it aint broke, don’t fix it.
I hope I don’t get black balled for being negative like the Ham Radio Deluxe
people do to users of their software. Lol ;-)

I think the consensus solution would be to make it a user option.
Seems the meteor scatter people have the most problems with it since they were
quick to speak up.
I had proposed at one time to make the "Prompt me to log QSO" a tri-state box
so one could check 73, 73+RRR, or none. But seems the binary choice is clearer
and there are no other tri-state checkboxes in WSJT-X.
So this patch makes it optional with an added option line below the current
prompt option. All worlds should be happy with this.

IMHO the introduction of the log QSO prompt when you are sending RRR does not
solve or help anything.
It is useless when you are doing meteor scatter. If I’m sending Tx3 and the
other station hears that and sends Tx4 and then logs the contact, it is not a
valid QSO because I have no idea if the other station has heard my report. I
will end up sending Tx3 several times until I just give up on the contact.

This was introduced in r7431. I think its bad form to get a prompt to log the
QSO when you are sending RRR. How do you know if your QSO partner has received
it if he does not send 73 back to you??
