Good morning all,
Worked a station this morning and after receiving his 73, I went back to
calling CQ. As normal, the Tx 5 window was still populated with his call:
- W3OA NM3G 73 -
I saw him sending additional 73 and RR73 messages, so I added TU to the
end of the TX 5 message. Yes, I can count ... mostly.
When I sent the revised message
- W3OA NM3G 73 TU -
The program shut down completely. Restarted just fine, but the abnormal
termination was quite the surprise.
I repeated this several times to ensure I captured the entire chain of
events ... and adding that 14th character apparently created an
unexpected condition. The radio did remain in transmit mode (easily
fixed by manually switching back to RX), and WSJT-X restarted
immediately without any fuss (no other instances were running).
Here's the snippet of my all.txt:

So, I'll learn to count to 13 in the future to prevent this corner case
... just wanted to share what I found.
Thanks and 73,
Rick
