No, you're not the only one. I think the problem is that it's "Saint Barthelemy" in DX4WIN but "St. Barthelemy" in the spreadsheet. This will require a program change, but I don't have the time to fix it right now. Adding the FJ QSO into the Marathon spreadsheet manually is the easiest way. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C/?, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Jan 13 20:58:21 2008 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Date: Sun Jan 13 20:59:53 2008 Subject: [Dx4win] back up log Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ineed help with backing up my log. i am running ver.7.01 with a laptop dell computer runing xp. when the loging program ask's me if i want to back up my log i click yes. now i want to put my log onto a disk. now i am not good with computers and donot know hpw to do this. if some one can help me and take me by the hand ( hi hi ) it would be a great help and help ease my mind on this matter. thanks for any help phil w3gt From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Jan 13 23:57:58 2008 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (AC0W) Date: Sun Jan 13 23:59:31 2008 Subject: [Dx4win] LOTW Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> See all the posts on LOTW I decided to get on board with the upload flags and upload confirm, etc. I have run into two problems, both puzzlers. First Problem So I downloaded the report and uploaded it into DX4WIN and I discovered a group of QSO's that DX4WIN did not match. After first I thought it was a contest log I forgot to load in but upon research the QSO's are in the log and the downloaded file has the QSO's. The group of QSO's are from Aug NAQP SSB. Both my log and the download report has them as SSB or Phone QSO's. The interesting part is the NOT FOUND Report that was produced has each of these QSO's as a RTTY QSO. I think I found the source of the problem. All of these QSO's in the LOTW file have the MODE as PHONE. All my other phone Q's in the file as SSB. SO DX4WIN is interpreting PHONE as RTTY it appears. I'll also have to contact LOTW to see one that one group of contacts is marked PHONE instead of SSB like all the others of the Mode type. Now that I've figure it out I can get things to work, just reporting this in case there is something to fix in DX4WIN. Second Problem I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, the QSO defaults are not being set for new QSO's other than Group on imports. Under Defaults for new QSO I have QSL Method set to DIRECT and Lable set to Upl. When I upload a file those items are not set per the default, yet the Group number is set. So what am I doing wrong? BTW, when I add QSO real-time or off-line those default items to get set properly. Thanks for any help.

Open Windows Explorer and navigate as follows by left clicking on each of these in the left window: My Computer Local Disk C: Program files DX4W703 (or whichever version you are using) Save Hold down the Ctrl key and in the right window and left click on w3gt.dxl and DX4WIN.cty Now right click on either of these two files and you should get a drop down menu that includes "Copy" Left click on "Copy" Now go to the left window and you should see either your floppy drive (A:) if you have one or a CD or DVD drive (probably D:). Right click on the one you want to use. You will get a drop down menu that includes "Paste". Left click on "Paste". Insert a disk and you should be OK. If the "Paste" option is greyed out, go back to the Save folder instruction above and carefully repeat this procedure from there. You will have backed up your country file and qso file to the disk you chose which is all you need in case of a problem. Do this periodically on a regular schedule to be safe. 73, Les [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > ineed help with backing up my log. i am running ver.7.01 with a laptop dell > computer > runing xp. when the loging program ask's me if i want to back up my log i > click yes. > now i want to put my log onto a disk. now i am not good with computers and > donot > know hpw to do this. if some one can help me and take me by the hand ( hi hi > ) > it would be a great help and help ease my mind on this matter. thanks for any > help > phil w3gt > _______________________________________________ > Dx4win mailing list > [email protected] > http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win > > From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jan 14 11:55:44 2008 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Jim Reisert AD1C) Date: Mon Jan 14 11:57:18 2008 Subject: [Dx4win] LOTW In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- AC0W <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I think I found the source of the problem.

SSB is, however.

The upload flag/labels preference isn't being obeyed on imported QSOs, only new QSOs. Paul is aware of the problem.
