Likely the physical writing to the Log file, which JTAlert uses to confirm the QSO was logged, is being delayed due to ACLog post logging activity, like online log uploads or post logging xml queries. There is nothing JTAlert can do if the physical writing of the QSO to the log file is delayed, that is outside the control of JTAlert., If this is a frequent enough problem, than it is best to turn off the QSO confirmation check in JTAlert. de Laurie VK3AMA

Re: Denied access to CW settings.xml and FD status.html

Hi Jim,
Thanks for your e-mail. I'm sorry that you ran into trouble. Your Internet protection software is clamping down on those files / AC Log. Giving the program and files the proper permissions in your protection software will correct that. Be well and enjoy!

Amateur Contact Log 7.0 is On The Website!
Scott Davis
Hi All,
We may not have the official announcement completed until tomorrow morning, but Amateur Contact Log 7.0 is now on the website! We will engage the automatic upgrade prompt when we send out the announcement, but Chris, Kimberly and I would be very grateful if you can go ahead, download the program now and give it one more good look!
The new features in 7.0 include:
- Easy, direct, integration with WSJT-X that can directly color codes entities in WSJT-X
 - Support for the 13 Colonies annual event
 - States lookup for DX Spotting (and WSJT-X)
 - Support for the free Hamdb Callbook Lookup service (which includes USA, Canada and a few other countries)
- Grid is now returned with the free Callook lookup service (grid is already provided in most other callbook lookup options)
- Right clicking on the main form's Spot Last button provides the opportunity to add a comment
- Improved saving and loading of main form's ListView column widths
- Flex: On change freq, now sending freq before mode at users requests.
We'll have lots more details in tomorrow's announcement e-mail, but the basic setup for WSJT-X is detailed here:
http://www.n3fjp.com/help/digitalsetup.html#wsjtx
And if you would optionally like to set up multicasting, where several programs are directly connected to WSJT-X simultaneously (not via intermediary), those details are here:
http://www.n3fjp.com/help/wsjt-x-integration-with-n3fjp-software.html
You can install AC Log 7.0 from this download page now, or wait for the automatic prompt that I will likely enable tomorrow.
http://www.n3fjp.com/aclog.html
Thanks so much for all your help and testing everyone. There is a lot that went into this release and we really appreciate all your thorough review and support! Thank you!
Enjoy!

Re: Change print out order
Hi James (call?),
I’ve never printed out my whole log – I have over 40K contacts. But I
do print out every one of my contest logs so I can keep track of
confirmations. Here is what I do:
As you have
this in a spreadsheet, you can reorder the columns many times and print
different versions.

Re: Slooow logging from JTAlert
I may have answered my own question, but it's too soon to tell. I don't connect to QRZ or any other outside site, but I noted this morning when I woke up my computer that there were two instances of ACL in the task bar. I closed one of them but I haven't had time to make another QSO to test the communication.

Re: Slooow logging from JTAlert
Hi Wes,
I see this now and then when I have lost my connection to QRZ. Do you
have that enabled? If so, are the “comments” the last item that is filled
before the Q finishes loading?

Hi Wes,
Thanks for your e-mail. I'm sorry that you've run into trouble. The only related setting in AC Log is to enable the API. From that point on, AC Log merely listens for the transfer from JTAlert, so you would need to touch base with the JTAlert folks on that.
If you continue to have trouble, we will soon be releasing AC Log 7.0, which provides a direct connect option to WSJT-X and is plenty fast. Be well and enjoy!
