Re: [Dx4win] QSO time issues when importing

2020-06-15 Thread Paul van der Eijk
Dave,

When you have the QSO start-time in an ADIF record Dx4win will use that
time. If that field is missing, it will use the end-time. So I’m guessing
some ADIF producer is changing the values of those fields or does not
export the start-time.
That should be easy to verify.

Scott, there are several Custom Awards in DX4WIN for tracking these.  You
will have to update the QSOs manually from the LoTW report.

Hi Mike,

Yes, I used this same tutorial.  WSJT-X and N1MM worked great together.
There was a lot of activity on 6M FT4 towards the end of the contest.

Subject: [Dx4win] QSO time issues when importing

To Paul and the group,

 

I continue to have problems with dupes being created when importing digital
QSOs from WSJT-X.  It appears that DX4WIN uses the QSO Begin time when all
other logging programs, including N1MM, use the QSO End time.  The Log4OM2
website states that in the UK amateur regulations require that the QSO end
time be used.

 

Here is how dupes are created:

 

After making over 600 Qs in the ARRL VHF test over the weekend, I imported
all 600 from N1MM into DX4WIN (using Jim's ADIF to DX4WIN Conversion app).
All 600 showed up in DX4WIN and I then did an upload to LOTW.  This morning
I made a few more FT8 QSOs and imported the WSJT-X ADIF file directly into
DX4WIN (which I have done hundreds of times).  Much to my dismay, a bunch of
dupes were created.  I made about 120 digital QSOs in the VHF contest.
During the contest, when a digital contact is made, WSJT-X broadcasts the
QSO to N1MM and then save the contact in its own ADIF file.  When the QSO is
imported into N1MM, it used the QSO End time for each QSO's time.

 

When I imported the WSJT-X ADIF file this morning, DX4WIN used the QSO Begin
time when saving each QSO.  By the way, I have always kept all of my
previous digital QSOs in WSJT-X.  I never delete them.  So the QSOs that I
made yesterday were imported into DX4WIN today, but most were ignored
because they all showed the same QSO time.  The QSO Begin and End times will
often be in sync when a digital mode is completed quickly without any
repeats.  But we all know that it can sometimes take several minutes for a
QSO to complete.  There have been times when I finally get a RR73 from the
other station that are 10 to 15 minutes after the original start time.  I
know that a  few times yesterday due to QSB or QRM conditions on 6 meters.

 

Two questions for the group:

 

1.  Would Paul be willing to change the import map for ADIF files so
that DX4WIN uses the QSO End time - which is the apparent standard?
2.  If Paul is not willing to do that, is there a way for the user to
change the import mapping - so that I can do that myself?

 

I might add that these dupes due to time differences become an ongoing issue
with LOTW.  Now that I uploaded all of the 600 QSOs that I imported from
N1MM (using the QSO end time), I will now have an issue with any QSOs that
get imported into DX4WIN directly from WSJT-X - if the beginning and end
time would vary significantly (more than a minute).  So this will cause
duplicate QSOs to be uploaded to LOTW - which I try to avoid.

 

The other option is the manually edit the WSJT-X ADIF file to make the
beginning and end times the same so that the next time that I import that
file, it will not create duplicates.  This also requires that I delete the
duplicates that were already created in DX4WIN due to the time discrepancy.

 

The best solution would be the change the import mapping in DX4WIN so that
it uses the QSO End time.  Can anyone help me with that?

 

In the meantime, I have to spend this afternoon finding all the dupes that
were created this morning!

 

Thank you.

That's one of the great things about "standards" - all you have to do is assert 
that there's one.

 

LoTW only sees the TIME_ON and not the TIME_OFF. So, the time that the QSO 
started is what LoTW tracks, not when it ends.

QSO to N1MM and then save the contact in its own ADIF file.  When the QSO is
imported into N1MM, it used the QSO End time for each QSO's time.

 

When I imported the WSJT-X ADIF file this morning, DX4WIN used the QSO Begin
time when saving each QSO.  By the way, I have always kept all of my
previous digital QSOs in WSJT-X.  I never delete them.  So the QSOs that I
made yesterday were imported into DX4WIN today, but most were ignored
because they all showed the same QSO time.  The QSO Begin and End times will
often be in sync when a digital mode is completed quickly without any
repeats.  But we all know that it can sometimes take several minutes for a
QSO to complete.  There have been times when I finally get a RR73 from the
other station that are 10 to 15 minutes after the original start time.  I
know that a  few times yesterday due to QSB or QRM conditions on 6 meters.

 

Two questions for the group:

 

1.  Would Paul be willing to change the import map for ADIF files so
that DX4WIN uses the QSO End time - which is the apparent standard?
2.  If Paul is not willing to do that, is there a way for the user to
change the import mapping - so that I can do that myself?

 

I might add that these dupes due to time differences become an ongoing issue
with LOTW.  Now that I uploaded all of the 600 QSOs that I imported from
N1MM (using the QSO end time), I will now have an issue with any QSOs that
get imported into DX4WIN directly from WSJT-X - if the beginning and end
time would vary significantly (more than a minute).  So this will cause
duplicate QSOs to be uploaded to LOTW - which I try to avoid.

 

The other option is the manually edit the WSJT-X ADIF file to make the
beginning and end times the same so that the next time that I import that
file, it will not create duplicates.  This also requires that I delete the
duplicates that were already created in DX4WIN due to the time discrepancy.

 

The best solution would be the change the import mapping in DX4WIN so that
it uses the QSO End time.  Can anyone help me with that?

 

In the meantime, I have to spend this afternoon finding all the dupes that
were created this morning!

 

Thank you.

 

73,

 

Dave, N4QS

Maybe Jim can add it to his program "adif to dx4win"... Can you test if 
one of the already supported contests as JARTS, Japan international can 
do this?

eQSL | Confirm eQSL using ADIF file

This will also fill in the State, County, Grid and/or IOTA fields for
those confirmed QSOs if that information is given in the eQSL
download.  Many people upload QSOs with the wrong information, so be
careful if you are using these QSOs for awards.

Hola Luc,

There is an easier way.

In the QSO Window, LoTW | Export to LoTW.  This function uses the LoTW
and Upload Date fields in the logbook to remember all the QSOs you
have already submitted to LoTW in the past, and creates a new ADIF
file containing only the NEW QSOs since the last export.  You can then
upload this same file to *both* LoTW and eQSL (and QRZ and HRDlog if
you so choose).  There is no filtering involved, as long as all your
old QSOs have already been marked as uploaded to LoTW.

This same flow applies using eQSL | Export to eQSL, but I never do
this, because the same ADIF file for LoTW can be used for eQSL.

This is an old application note, but most of it still applies:

[Dx4win] ADIF file

2020-06-15 Thread Luc
I am doing it right?

Once a month I upload my ADIF to LoTW, QRZ and ClubLog and I do it in the
same way.
I create a filter with F8 and in the Upload Date field of LoTW I put
01-01-1901
Then in the LoTW menu in Set LoTW upload Flag I put YES, OK
Then Menu Export To LoTW active filter I say OK and uncheck with AND the
contacts.

So far, everything has gone well, but when I registered in E-QSL, the
question is, would that same file be used to upload it to E-QSL too?
Or do I have to generate another one with the same filter in the Upload
date field of e-QSL?

Regards.
