Re: Name not being logged when using WSJT-X
Bob
Phil, yes you quoted me accurately. However to keep it in contest, I also said something like 'I haven't tested in a long time', or 'when I last tested' ... So yes, it appears WSJT-X has in their latest release addressed the issue of premature dropping of TxEnabled (which of course they denied as being problematic when I raised (no pun intended) the issue with them.
If you have the UDP BandMap option to LOG ADDITIONAL INFO FROM THE LOGBOOK ENTRY WINDOW checked, and the name field in the Logbook Entry Window when the QSO is logged, then the same cut/paste text from the Cherry-picker event viewer should adequately reveal the sequence of events.

Re: Logger 32 / CW Machine
Bob
How can we help you if you won't help yourself? You said: Logger 32 for some reason will not allow me to use this device. What do you see, what do you not see? Does Logger32 see the port? Can you open the port? Maybe my biorhythms are at a low right now, but I find your description of the problem unhelpful. SeventyThree(s)

Re: Logger 32 / CW Machine

If it works in N1MM it sure should work in Logger 32 ? comport and use dedicated serial port and rts or dtr keying.use ptt to switch to transmit. Make sure you dont have 2 programs trying to use the port at the same time .

That’s very good news that your L32 is logging the operator name for a QSO via WSJT-X
In a reply you gave to me on Monday 20th you said “I think you'll find the when using WSJT none of the additional information is logged.” So based on your test results below, L32 does not work the way you described on July 20th (which is very good news).
But me and other people don’t experience the same result as you (i.e. for us, the name is not stored)
Is there some kind of diagnostic or debug file(s) that I can send you so that you could see what is different in the way my setup is working. Maybe I could also send you a file containing the configuration of both L32 and WSJT-X. Hopefully you will then be able to see what is set wrong (or different) in my system
If there are such files, then please tell me how to enable them and where each are stored. I will then do the same tests as you and then forward these files to you
Hope this is OK with you
Thanks again

I installed WSJT-X v2.2.2 and made some 20M FT8 contacts. I see this:
13:24:57 Cherry-picking AK4AG started
This contact was logged with name, but you will notice that after receiving the RR73 from AK4AG WSJT-X logged the QSO (Logger32 automatically clicked the Log QSO prompt window) sent 73 and took a lunch break. This contact was with TX1 enabled.
13:43:27 Cherry-picking TI2ALF started
Again, with this contact after receipt of RR7 from TI2ALF WSJT-X logged the QSO, sent 73, and took a siesta. Name was logged. Again, for this contact, Logger32 clicked the Log QSO prompt and TX1 enabled on WSJT-X. Lets try some contacts with TX1 disabled (my preferred operation setting).
13:52:27 Cherry-picking K4PRO started
For this contact, with TX1 disabled, WSJT-X behaved as I would expect, after receiving R+01 it replied with RR73, logged the QSO (Logger32 clicked the Log QSO window) and waited for the final 73 from K4PRO. The name was logged.
3:54:59 Cherry-picking W5W started
Again, this contact followed the sequence I would expect. No lunch break, and name was logged.
Test concluded. WSJT-X uninstalled. SeventyThree(s).

Re: Logger 32 / CW Machine

Guys I have tried all the above to no avail. Logger 32 for some reason will not allow me to use this device. Is anyone else using it and if so how did you configure it? It works perfectly with N1MM. I was hoping to use it when in our motor home. Space is always tight and I could eliminate the paddles if it worked. Hate to change logging programs.

Re: Logger 32 / CW Machine

... and Google tells me it uses RTS keying.
So, with the gizmo unplugged, open the CW Machine. Select Software keyer. Open the Keyer setup. List the serial ports Logger32 can see. Now Close the Keyer setup window and plug in the gizmo. Open the keyer setup window an list the serial ports again. See the new one? That's the port you want. Select it. Now check the dedicated serial port and and standard keying options. Click apply.

Perhaps you could do some tests when you get a moment (L32 + WSJT-X) and let me know if and when it stores the name etc

Re: Name missing in L32Lookups

Yes, thats exactly the same problem (when using WSJT-X). Its only when WSJT-X automatically stores the QSO.
If i manually store a QSO, by pressing enter key when in the L32 LogEntry window, then the name and QTH is stored in the logbook. But thats not the correct way to use WSJT-X and shouldn't be necessary.
Bob (L32 Guru) says that L32 only stores what WSJT-X passes to it (and WSJT-X doesn't give name)
BUT.......
1. Some people report here that their L32/WSJT-X set up does store the name.
2. On some (rare) occasions, my setup also stores the name, without me operating or using L32/WSJT-X in any different way - Why?
Its all very strange.
Its not the end of the world if course, especially as you can manually add the name etc to the log after the QSO is stored, but that is a LOT of QSOs to manually update, especially with the high QSO rate of WSJT-X
I have tried both programs and prefer WSJT-X to JTDX. Both have their problems, so JTDX isn't any better from that point of view

Hi Phil
I’m late to this thread, but curious of the answer.
I use JTDX and have it set to carry over Name & QTH from L32 (Using Ham QTH) and all works fine. But if I use WSJT-x and L32 (I use this on VHF radio) nothing carries over from the Name / QTH info.
Is that the same issue you’re having?

You say it is working normally again.
Do you use WSJT-X with Logger32?
If yes, is the name recorded in your L32 logbook when the QSO is automatically recorded by WSJT-X?
