2010-05-03 Thread J.F. Samuels
I recently upgraded from release 7 to 8. I participated in the Florida QSO Party last weekend and added the QSOs from ADIF. I set the Contest Mode | Notes to Add field to FQP and loaded the records. Today I received a QSL and noticed that the FQP is appearing in the Notes for this Call, not

I just upgraded from 7.04 and can't get any action from PF3 at all. I've gone back through the mailing list entries all the way back to the announcement of version 8, but can't find a similar post. The online QRZ works OK when I press ENTER. For many years and versions I have used a batch

David, the starting date is OK, but the mappings for the new St. Barts do not include any calls with the TO prefix. Best thing to do is edit those contacts, change the prefix field to FJ and hit PF10 to save it. Jim will include your observation in the next country file update. John, K2CIB
