Alan, I think that's the best you can do. The program for signing/uploading logs does compare the BAND against the FREQUENCY if both fields are present in the ADIF file, and reports errors if they don't match, as you saw. In your case, you'll have to assume BAND field is correct.
Are these from QSOs you logged in real time, or ones you imported? If the QSOs were imported, and you have the original source, we can try to find out how to fix them. Also note that if you export your log to ADIF or DX4WIN8 format, then import the resulting file into a new DX4WIN log, it will also help identify these kinds of problems. 73 - Jim AD1C On Thu, May 15, 2014 at 3:10 PM, ALAN ZACK k7acz wrote: > I recently made a submission to LOTW using the instruction by Jim AD1C: > > WORKING WITH LOTW and DX4WIN > > I got many error messages tagged as ERROR: FREQUENCY 0.01431 (and other such > freq notations) IS OUT OF RANGE FOR BAND 20M ON LINE xxxxxxx > > When I look up the QSO record on DX4WIN I see in the Freq (khz) box that I > had entered 14.31.
