The log change could be addressed by export, but I noticed that the adif
log file was storing the qso by the date you started but the time you
ended. So if you have a qso which crosses a gmt date boundary it appears
in the way wrong spot in the file. I reported to Dave that it was sorting
by date on and time off.
I agree that needed to be fixed. But a cabrillo wants date and time off,
not on. But the ARRL has always been the odd man out.
The saving grace is Dave allows the user to select what he wants or needs.
Plus we have the option to edit the log.
In a contest you probably want date on instead of date off, but as you all
point our, you can handle the choice in export. No matter what the fix,
though, date on and time off together is wrong.
In any contest you want date off and time off.
The clear tx macro is for use in other macros, not for use by itself. I
wanted the contest macros to clear any accidental TX text before
transmitting. The default macros CQ etc probably don't want to do this
since people might type in som,e text and press CQ instead of CALL or
something, but in general, I think contesters will want the macros to send
exactly only the text in the macro.
You are correct, but any contester worth his salt, has the macros set
exactly as needed. But in the heat of battle it may come in handy.
There is another bug that exec macros are inserting spaces even if there
is no output, but that is I believe unaddresed.
