Re: Change Prefix not Changing Beam Heading

True. But if I am crazy enough to FORCE the prefix to go to Mayotte then the Logger32 logging window obeys and shows it as FH AF 19. That is Mayotte, Africa and zone 19. However, the beam headings STILL point to France. Shouldn't the beam heading change as well? 73, Rick ---In hamlogger@..., <hamlogger@...> wrote: TO2ZZZ will not necessarily be assigned to Mayotte.
TO2D was assigned to St. Barts. a couple years ago.
There is no logic in these calls.

Heading
I'll have to check. The 3.48.1 update did not have a database file it only had UPGRADE.ZIP with 5 files included. I did not load 3.48. The 3.47 DB had it and now TO2TT maps correctly.
That said - with TO2TT in the database that will only resolve the current issue. If a new call that is not in the database is assigned to FH for example, the same problem would arise. Wouldn't it? Try entering the hypothetical Mayotte call TO2ZZZ for example. I think that should yield the results I'm seeing. Thanks for getting me to the correct database! At least the TO2TT issue is resolved. 73, Rick VE7TK ---In hamlogger@..., <hamlogger@...> wrote: Nope, just installed full 3.48.1. That includes the latest DB.

Heading Have you changed the TO2TT Database Maintenance section? If you have already done that then you're headings will be correct.
I have not made that change.

Heading Rick,
Then TO2TT would have resolved as Mayotte.

Heading Running 3.48.1 - which I believe is the latest version.

Today
I was working TO2TT on 15 . He is located in Mayotte (FH). I entered
the call into the logging window and it indicated France (F EU 14)
with a beam heading of 34/214 at 8001 km.
Using
the Change Prefix (CTRL-P) function I pointed to Mayotte and L32 correctly
indicated FH AF 39 in the logging window. However,
the beam heading remained unchanged at 34/214 at 8001 km instead on 19/199 at 15913 Km.
It
would be nice if the beam heading changed with the selection of a new
prefix.
