1. Type the call, press TAB. Look at what ever you want (worked before,
etc.)
2. Erase the record.
3. Retype ONLY the call, don't press enter, etc. Then when you work the DX,
press enter. You capture current time, freq, etc.
If you "pre-enter" your log then later work the DX, you may miss capturing
other desired data. This is particularly important when working split and
you kept changing your transmit frequency as you tried to be heard.
