Hi Charlie,
I think the problem was operator fatigue - VY SRI! I did experience last
night the same thing that you did.
The problem I was encountering I guess was difficulty finding the exact
same sequence to reply to again when I returned to calling a previous
station, and wanted to maintain the same report in my reply so it would
not upset their AVERAGE in trying to decode me. Normally of course, this
is not a problem when you are running a sked with only one station.
However, during an EME DXpedition, when you are bouncing around from
station to station, trying to see who is actually copying you at a given
time, the AVERAGE screen on the right fills quickly with multiple calls
from multiple callers, and it is really a challenge trying to find the
correct previous sequence so your reply contains the report you
originally sent to them. I have been trying to keep track of the
report sent to each station by hand so I can duplicate the same report,
but find that it often takes me more than half a Q65-60A sequence to
scroll up through all the decodes to find the original call. Actually,
what often happens is that I pick the wrong decode to reply to and then
have to manually adjust the report with the report wheel. Many times I
only got it to the original sequence by the end of my transmission :-(
So when that happens, I guess I have ruined the chance of the other
station building up an average of my replies.
Maybe if there were an option to keep the signal report the same even if
there are a number of intervening contacts or transmissions to other
stations, I guess that is what I am trying to do by hand and failing
miserably at... Do you understand my dilemma?

Hi Lance
I'm not seeing that here with 2.5.1. I tested replying to a CQ call
and clicking on an average decode (there were no single period decodes
in my benchmark test files) it populates the messages correctly with
the S/N of the decoded average message.

I finally was able to download 2.5.1, even though I am not using
compound callsign at the moment. One thing I noticed that seems to be
different is that when I click on a decode in the AVERAGE window to
reply, the program used to reply with the signal strength shown in
the
decode. Now that doesn't happen anymore. So in order to make sure I
continue sending the same reply as I did previously, I have to
refer to
my notes and then adjust the report dial to make the report match the
decode.
I think it was better before... TNX and VY 73, Lance
