Same thing with CAS-4A and CAS-4B.

One comment though. Two items in the adf file have to manually edited if you are not using Joe's Autoload program. When you go from QO100 to QO-100 or CAS4A to CAS-4A you are adding an extra character to SAT_NAME and that number also must be changed....or at least that is what I finally found was needed for me to upload CAS-4A and CAS-4B.


One other warning. Don't get satellite happy and start adding bird after bird when you go into Database Access/Satellite Names. After about the 14th or 15(?) line, DXbase 2007 gets very unfriendly. If I remember right, it completely locked everything up, requiring a hard reboot....and guess what? All your carefully typed and sorted names go POOF!!! Being somewhat of a slow learner, it happened to me twice. Win XP box in use. YMMV with other Operating Systems.

For the SAT users with DXbase2007 .. The new Satellite  QO-100  has caused
a slight problem for DXbase2007 ...
The SAT field in DXbase2007 was / is limited to 5 characters .. SO, QO-100 can 
NOTbe used in the SATNAMES.dat  file .. You must use QO100 ..

NOW -- here is the problem ..
For those DXbase2007 users who also use my Autolotw program - I have made anew 
autolotw program file which changes the QO100 to read QO-100 as I makethe adi 
file in my program .. The newest Autolotw program file can be downloadedfrom

https://www.navycthistory.com/wa6axe/2007autolotw270.html

For those DXbase2007 users who ARE NOT using my Autolotw program,When you 
EXPORT an adi file - and you have QO100 in the SAT column,BE SURE to manually 
go into the newly made adi file and manually changeQO100 to read QO-100 .. Then 
you can let TQSL make the TQ8 file..

FOR ALL ::   BE SURE that you have downloaded the NEWEST TQSL program andthe 
NEWEST config file from the LOTW website..  This newest config file contains 
the entry for SAT  QO-100.
