Please read from bottom up... I started this message with the Yahoo
WSJT-X group , I was told this is an N1MM + issue . So I sent the
message to the N1MM + user group and as you can read below , I'm told
the issue is with WSJT=X
I'm only a user of N1MM + and WSJT-X FT8 mode ! In WSJT-X settings /
Reporting ( N1MM logger + Broadcast ) I have checked Enable logged
contact ADIF .. Now if the log time was at the end of the QSO , Club Log
, LoTW and the user's would all be happy.
Now all this is not really a big issue , I can mentally detect the QSO
is taking a long time and edit the time when QSO is complete
Love both FT8 and N1MM + logger, Ed N5DG
Amplifying what Steve says, in a contest, a QSO must be *completed*
before the end of the contest. If it is not, it doesn't count. Since
there is only one timestamp in a Cabrillo log, it should be the ending
time of the contact.

I have brought up this issue on WSJT-X forums in the context of the LoTW
time match window. When normally logging a QSO in N1MM+, without WSJT,
the completion time of the QSO is finished and logged. I consider that
to be correct. As you have noticed, WSJT sends the start time to N1MM+.
IMHO, that is not correct. WSJT-X folks have a different opinion. You
really should take up this issue with the WSJT-X folks.

This may have been discussed and I missed it . I worked and logged Z66X
on 10m FT8 , it was not an easy contact . I would stop and start again
as QSB permitted . After receiving and sending 73's I clicked log it in
the WSJT program and WSJT sends the Q to N1MM plus . Now a few days
later I'm filling in date and time using Club Log OQRS and I was not
getting a match . I remembered , I made a WSJT screenshot . My
screenshot time was 26 minutes later then the time WSJT / N1MM+ logged
the QSO ! Entering the screenshot time was a match in club log .
Now I'm keeping a close eye on the WSJT log time and it appears to use
only the start time when sending to N1MM+ or should I say N1MM only
grabs the start time
I see WSJT has a start and end time so It would be great if N1MM+ would
use the end time , or both ...
Now I know N1MM + is a contest log and I'm using iit as a general log
but that is because I like it and won't use any other logging software .
I'm only asking for a simple change and can't see it making a bit of
difference for contester logging the start or the end of the QSO .
If I'm asking for to much , It's simple ... If my DX QSO is timely, I'll
change the time manually but I will not stop using N1MM Logger
Thanks for reading, Good luck with ur contesting, Ed N5DG
