Jim, I can do as you suggest or I can even interface WSJT-X with Log4OM and do it seamlessly. I chose to do it as described to Murphy-proof things as much as possible and follow the KISS principle.
Thanks for the comment Jim. Have a great day.

If you come back with a RR73, auto log, and then a station comes back with a R-XX (what I term a "RR/73 Loop") then both communication and logging can lead to duplicates in logs. Each logged entry should be manually approved (so do not check "Log automatically"). Some software loggers and bridges such as JTAlert (that I use and recommend heavily) also are not perfect. I use JTALert with DXLab's DXKeeper. No matter what I do sometimes (and erratically) a duplicate is logged to eQSL. These are issues for their support forums. Despite this forewarning would strongly echo Jim's post and recommend JTAlert's use to you ! JTAlert can be found at https://hamapps.com. DXLab can be found at https://dxlabsuite.com . None of these products are viruses if your AV scanner goes into overdrive and its safe to add these programs (and their destinations) as AV over-rides. I personally use DXKeeper as the central logging tool and use its "Export QSO's" function to "Export standard ADIF" back to the "wsjtx.log" file (found in the location accessible by "File/Open Log Directory"). DXKeeper has great tools for managing duplicates. When all duplicates are removed periodically write them back to WSJT-X over-writing previous "wsjtx.log" instances :-) More info on how to do this and set up products can be found on each product's support forums :-) 73 Steve I VK3VM / VK3SIR -----Original Message----- From: Jim Preston <jprest...@cox.net> Sent: Saturday, 23 May 2020 1:15 AM To: DX Jami via wsjt-devel <wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] exporting from adi Danny, Why not just have JTAlert (if you use it) or WSJT-X log directly to Log4OM? Then you wouldn't have to go through the adif import routine. 73, Jim N6VH On 5/20/2020 6:45 PM, DX Jami via wsjt-devel wrote: > Michelle, > > My logging program is Log4OM ver2.
