CQ WW D Contest Logger
JoAnn Donaldson
Scott, I know you have a reason for doing this but LOTW has a headache with it. When the Contest was over, I had it not only create a Cabrillo log file which I sent to CQ. I then had it make an .ADIF file. When I attempted to send this file to LOTW, LOTW had a headache with it. Saying that the PH for Mode was Invalid. I had to go back into the Contest Logger, create a new ADIF File but this time I let it convert the PH to SSB. Then LOTW was happy. SO why do you use PH for SSB contacts and not SSB? I did notice that the Field Day Logger used PHONE and LOTW was Happy with that. JoAnn AB8YZ

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your e-mail. You can assign any valid Windows file name you like. It is not used in any way, other than as the name of the log file. You may want to click File > Save As and save your current log as KC3AM.mdb to minimize confusion, but that is entirely up to you.
Enjoy! 73, Scott

It is time for me to start inputting data for my two previous call's
into ACL.
I see in the Faq section for multi ham families that all that is needed
is to do is
file > new > Start a new log with a new database .....
The existing log is called LogData.mdb for my KC3AM call.
I wish to create a database for KC3AI and WB3GDB so would I name the new
file KC3AI.mdb & WB3GDB.mdb?
I don't want to cause myself any troubles.
Thanks much,

Re: CQ WW

Hi Larry,
Thanks for your e-mail. If you count off times greater than 30 minutes as being inactive, you operated 2:36:17. If you count off times greater than 60 minutes as being inactive, you operated 4:07:37.
A quick check of the rules indicates 60 minutes for Class Overlay. I didn't check to see if any of the other options had a time constraint.
Enjoy! 73, Scott

Re: using contest loggers to send CW
Scott Davis
Hi John,
Thanks for your e-mail. Click Settings > Rig Interface and deselect the power option that is keying your cable (which sounds like is working fine).
You will need to use a separate port for CW from rig interface.

Re: Parks on the Air (POTA) logging

Hi Jim,
How does it do that? Do you have to change your location in ACL? I run mobile/portable a lot and use the method described above setting up a new LOTW location. This seems easier. 73 Dick - KC3EF

Re: new user-lotw confirmations?

Thanks for the good report Ken. Sometimes, when the LoTW server is busy, it won't return very large data requests, so you might give it another try after the contest dust has settled.
Thanks for your support!
