Steve:

If there are hot keys in A C log to change the CW sending speed on the fly,
I haven't found them.

If anyone knows of something I'm missing here, please let me and the others
know, because that would be something valuable to be aware of.

Thanks Tom.  Hope you have a good trip.

I was hoping there were hot keys to change on the fly.    In Writelog it 
is page up and page down keys, and I think in XMlog, there are some 
shifted F keys to do this.    No big deal, I can always use the knob on 
the keyer if I want.
