Then, you need to unlock TX and RX (uncheck LTR), and, by a single click, adjust yout RX frequency slightly up.</p></br>
<strong>IMPORTANT:</strong> the green horizontal line in the top frequency scale is your receiving bandwidth. If you have to change it, use the "DF Tol" spin box.
Then, change Auto from off to on and application starts working.
If you have to switch fast between "Multi Answering Auto Seq Protocol" and normal work protocol, press shortcut Ctrl+` (Switch to US Keyboard, for Ctrl+`, the button is below the Escape button).
</p>
<p> After QSO application finishes, it will automatically save QSO into the Log. In the Log widget, in Column comment, you will see the MA QSO abbreviation. In this protocol, this is the method for marking QSO connection type.
