Re: MULTIPLE LOGS
Have you looked at the BV software? It looks like it will do much of what you ask and will work with ADIF exports from ACL or any other logging software.

Re: Hawaii contest log

Did you install the Hawaii Out of State QSO Party log? That is asking for the Hawaii county, so you may have installed the in state program.

You can delete that and download the out of state version. Neil VE3SST

General questions
deni
Hey Everyone,
Here are a few questions. I am sure they are based on my lack of understanding and I am hoping the answers to this email will make me wiser for the asking. 1. When a new station comes onto the log it shows black while the others are green. My answer is to think the one in black has not been reported to lotW and eqsl. When it turns green, logs are up to date. 2. I turned DX spots on and decided I did not like them and turned them off. Settings > dxspotting. Nothing is checked but they are still displaying. 3. When a new station is a logging in waiting, the recent contacts list pops up and fills from 1 to a whole page full of the about to be logged with all stations details. I never get to see the actual page that shows logged until after the fact. (Note: I would like to be able to see the logged page all the time, any way to do this?? 73 - deni wb0tax

Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions Phil. With all the other projects on my plate, I'm not planning to add color printing at this time.
Thanks again for your thoughts!

That seems to work OK but I see that the "standard" wording of
the comment on the last row of the label has not been saved and I
would not want to have to enter this every time. Can this be made
to save as a boiler plate text please?
Also, Is it possible to configure the QSL label to have (say) a
different colour for the callsign, another for the text and a
third for the Standard message please?

Yes, I can see that as a possible work around but the major obstacle as far as I can see so far is the inability for the program to be able to print a batch of QSL labels for a single DX callsign. As I said before, I've been using Win-EQF for many years but it is no longer supported and doesn't work well under Windows 10, which is why I'm looking for an alternative. However, as far as QSL management is concerned, this is probably the most important feature of it. 73 for now Phil G3SWH On 19/08/2020 02:19, Jim Shorney wrote: > I was thinking of one account to deal with all your manager work.

Re: DX Spotting Stops
Scott Davis
Hi Mel,
Thanks for your e-mail. The two most common causes for what you describe are:
- You PC going to sleep.
- An Intermittent Internet connection.
You can try enabling the Keep Alive function on the DX Spotting set up form, but with it failing as fast as you describe, you will likely have to remedy your connection to keep the DX Spotting active.
Enjoy! 73, Scott
