Default QSL Message not being retained
|
Ken Bandy, KJ9B
Good morning, Dave. I have recently stumbled onto an issue that may or may not be a problem. With the annual special event that I host, I always have the default QSL Message set up in DXKeeper with “Thanks from W9ISF!”. I have noticed this year that when I start DXKeeper, after logging a QSO, the QSL message is blank. I need to go to the “Defaults” tab in “Config” and select my message in order for it to show up once again. Once I do this, it will continue to automatically fill until I terminate DXKeeper and re-start it. I don’t recall having to select this for every operating session in the past. If this is normal behavior, then that’s fine. I just wanted to point it out in case it’s not.
Thanks as usual, Ken, KJ9B |

Are you loading a workspace at startup? If so, is the default QSL message stored in that workspace (did you update the workspace after setting the default QSL message)? 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 2022-08-10 9:42 AM, Ken Bandy, KJ9B wrote:

Hi Joe. I am using a workspace, and that thought crossed my mind as well. I have updated the W9ISF workspace a couple of times after setting the default message. Doing so had no change in the behavior I'm seeing. Thanks for the thought, though.

Thanks for the response, Dave. I followed your instructions as outlined below. I am noticing that the Default QSL message is not retained even if I just simply close DXKeeper, and don't change Workspaces. In other words, after I have selected the Default QSL message I want in the Config, and confirmed it is working, I close DXKeeper. Then I re-open DXKeeper, without changing Workspaces, and the Default QSL message does not re-appear in either the Config -> Defaults tab, or in a newly logged QSO.

On the Configuration window's General tab, check the "Log debugging info" box 2. On the Configuration window's Defaults tab, select a "Default QSL Message" 3. Terminate DXKeeper 4. Start DXKeeper 5. After DXKeeper displays its Main window, on the Configuration window's General tab, uncheck the "Log debugging info" box 6. Attach the errorlog.txt file from your DXKeeper folder to an email message, and send the message to me via aa6yq (at) ambersoft.com 73, Dave, AA6YQ |
