It seems to me that changing the operation of the “tab 1” message list might go a long way towards accommodating the non-standard messaging wanted for Field Day and other situations - and probably enhance current functionality. I would suggest:
1) Allow a “free form” field to be inserted in the Tx messages. The field could be delineated by brackets (which would not transmitted), for instance, and could be placed anywhere within the message. 2) Relabel the “next” selection targets to “do” targets and re-function so that selected messages are those that are transmitted (top to bottom sequence as now), while un-seleceted ones are skipped. The associated “tx message #” fields would adjust to show the appropriate sequence number with un-selected showing “skipped”. 3) A size (or available character space) indicator should be shown somewhere with the message so that one could see whether message changes do not exceed tx capability without having to count. This could be a number to indicate remaining/available character space or just an entry limit (you can not enter anything more after the limit). Actually, suggestion 3 would be good regardless of whether any other changes were made.
