What is wrong with the sequence below?

No it sends the S&P TU macro, you need to use F2 until you are called.
In S&P when you enter a call and press <enter> the cursor moves to the
input field, and when you press <enter> the 2nd time the qso is logged
and the TU message is sent.
ha2os 5nn 123
type in <123> and press <enter>
(sends SP_TU_MSG and logs qso)
if he does not understand
and send <agn?>
press '_' (sends 'nr #' again)
So minimum is: Enter call <enter> enter nr send by him <enter>
Only if he calls you the 1st time you send your call and that does not
always happen. That's why you use F2.
As far as I know it is handled similar by other contest programs.
It is used by N1MM and TRlog both, the others I don't know.
The only alternative I know of is to leave the call in the call field,
keep pressing <enter> until you are called. Hit the space bar to move to
the input field, once populated, <enter> again send TU message and logs
qso. But tlf is not coded this way. Would be nice if it did.
