Thanks for that bit of info on the Overide..... I am going to uncheck that box as ive had trouble in the contests with the program telling my log its the wrong mode for the frequency.. I guess i should have looked for that myself... :).. Ive screwed up a few contacts and then submitted them to LoTW and had to go back and correct them ad re submit them but it worked all ok.. Dave N8DC. ps: Merry Xmas to everyone .

If you uncheck 'Override mode with Band Plan' (in User options/Log Defaults) it will use mode from previous QSO, or mode from radio when you log the QSO. As far as I know, using prefix in front or after the call, should be the same for DXbase. But, it is an important note you giving about LoTW. I myself my suffer the same for some log entries.. 73's an Happy New Year to all De Oystein LA7QI -----Original Message----- From: Jim WA9YSD [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 25. desember 2009 05:05 To: [email protected] Subject: [Dxbase] Log Entries I have been going through my logs. I had 3 problems with my logs. If you do not watch what you click on when you make a log entry and submit your log to LOTW. First a during a CQWW SSB contest 0n 40M on 7056.0 I worked MI0LLL logging program entered in as a CW QSO and I did not catch it and did not receive LOTW credit cause of it. After 5 years I corrected it. I had a similar error for a different station during a 160M CW contest and the program thought it was a SSB QSO instead. Second thing I worked HK0/EA4DX on 17M. I did not get LOTW credit for that one as well. After 7 years I sent out and email and found out that the station submitted his call as EA4DX/HK0 I resubmitted the log entry and got credit for it on LOTW. I am not sure but DXbase might not like the HK0 in-front of the call rather than behind it. Not sure though. I am sure the CW and SSB i am sure all programs have this issue. So be careful and pay attention to what you click on and what is being entered. I had corrected these this week in my log. I got credit for 3 more band countries that I did not have before. Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year. It is raining here and the snow is disappearing. Stay on course, fight a good fight, and keep the faith.
