Re: Elecraft K4 ...
Bob
Mike, which one, there are dozens of them. Some as old as two years ago. I have watched a couple, without actually learning anything other that it's a 'game changer', and 'it's better than sliced bread'. I have Googled extensively, but have not found a single hit that includes K4 and CESSB or K4 and predistortion. SeventyThree(s).

Re: Logger 32 quits shortly after launch
DamianM0BKV
Some users of the logging program have carried out the update and the program disappeared either immediately or at the next bootup. This has happened recently to many users because many virus checkers think the new version has a virus and instead of asking you what to do they delete the main file 'Logger32.exe' from the main folder C:// Logger32/, This problem of virus checkers treating a file as a virus is called a FALSE NEGATIVE in the plumbing trade.I have had the problem with McAfee virus checker a while back. Numerous others have also since.

Re: Logger 32 quits shortly after launch
Bob
Steve, interesting problem. You say you have reinstalled Logger32 but you can't update. I assume you are now on version 3.50.0, and you're attempting to update to 3.50.422.
First off, check that Logger32 is configured to run with administrator privileges. Look in the \Logger32 directory for the Logger32.exe. Right click on the icon, click Properties. Select the Compatibility tab. Is the Run this program as administrator option checked?
If that doesn't help, then you could try something a little more drastic. First, make sure you have your logbook safely stored away in ADIF format. Look in the \Logger32 directory for folders called Updatefiles for ver 3.50.xxx. Copy the contents of the newest folder (I haven't counted them, but there is probably 15 files) into the \Logger32 directory. What you have done is upgrade Logger32 ver 3.50.0 to the release version prior to the one you were running on August 26.
Good luck, 73.

Logger 32 quits shortly after launch
I have never posted to Groups.io before, so apologies if I have done this wrong...
I have used Logger 32 for years without serious issues but this one has stumped me.
I run the latest version of Win 10 64bit (kept updated) & have up to date antivirus.
On 26th August I clicked on the link to open Logger as usual. The program opened, loaded the logbook (about 5000 entries) and then the program closed.
Since then I have re-installed the program but as soon as I click ‘yes’ to updating, Logger quits.
The program works perfectly on my Win 10 64bit laptop, so it is something peculiar to my desktop. I hadn’t changed anything or installed any new programmes and am out of ideas.
Anyone else had the same issue, if so what is the fix?
Any help gratefully received.

Re: Logbook page dissappeared
Peter Eckersberger
Hi Bob,
Did as you suggested. Found it as "Logbook Page Index= 0". Changed it to "Logbook Page Index=0". After starting Logger32 nothing had changed. Decided to do something different. Deleted the "Logger32.INI" and started Logger32. All the basics came up. Included the Logbook page. That proved that the frog was hiding somewhere in the "INI"-file. Fortunately I've all that HAM-stuff on a second "ZBOX" which is one of those tiny mini PCs by ZOTAC https://www.zotac.com/us/product/mini_pcs/overview. I used that in the past at my 2nd QTH and use it now for back up purposes. Well, I copied the "Logger32.ini" from the "ZBOX" to the Logger32-folder, changed a few link-settings within the "Utility program" setup and EUREKA! I'm back to business. Anyway, tnx a lot for giving me a hand on that matter. Wish you a nice and relaxing Sunday. 73 de Peter, OE3EPW

Re: A can of worms?
Bob
Graham, you are a subscriber to this lowly reflector? We're honored/humbled with your interest/presence. Your words of wisdom are appreciated.
A couple of weeks ago I was (anonymously) made aware of the ARRL/LoTW representation to the the ADIF Meisters to include FST4 as a new MFSK submode. My reply to my source is unprintable.
Sir, don't shoot the messenger. I call it like I see it. No hidden agenda.
The ADIF meisters decree a new submode for MFSK. So be it. Logger32 (as pathetic as it is) now accepts FST4 as an MFSK submode.
Who am I supposed to question about this very questionable mandate? Those that promulgate the directive, (or those that with their heads up their ass) that pressured (because of their totally undeserving omnipotence} you to do it?
Graham, call me out if you like, I have no problem with that, but to hide behind the wishes of the ARRL/LoTW for your decrees/mandates is not acceptable.
Once again you (and your merry men) blew it. Admit it. SeventryThree(s)

Save the sarcasm for the ARRL and K1JT and take it up with them if it is unsatisfactory.
"The current beta version of WSJT-X (2.3.0) includes a new mode, FST4. ARRL has been discussing this release with K1JT, who has agreed to use "MODE=MFSK, SUBMODE=FST4" for QSOs using that new encoding scheme." 73 de Graham G3ZOD

Re: Logbook page dissappeared

Peter, open the Logger32.INI file with NotePad (it is a simple text file). Look for the section heading
[wndLogbookPage Settings]
look for the line somewhere below it like this.
Logbook Page Index= 0
if it is not = 0 or =0, then change it to =0 save the change, and load Logger32 again. Any change? 73.

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your quick response. But unfortunately your advise was the very first action done by myself. Didn't help at all. Here again the pics of my actions ... 1. When starting Logger32 I see this one ... Pse take to your knowledge that the loading of the logbook is incomplete. By clicking several times onto "OK" the logbook gets loaded but stays invisible. As soon as I click onto the black "DATE"-column it does not turn into red but that lousy "TEN_TEN" message shows up again. Sorry, here I'm. I've no idea what to do. What hurts most is the fact that I can't use the fantastic "Cherry Picker" option together with the direct logging of JTDX & WSJTX Q's into "Logger32". This combo is really something special. Thanks a lot for your effort in providing the whole community wits all those candies. 73 de Peter, OE3EPW Am 05.09.2020 um 16:54 schrieb Bob:

Make sure the selected column to sort the Logbook Page Window is the QSO DATE column. Click on it and it will be in red. 73.

Logbook page dissappeared
Peter Eckersberger
Hello,
Name is Peter, call OE3EPW Today something strange (at least for me) happened when trying to reduce the size of my Logger32 logbook page. After doing so all of a sudden the "1" error text popped up (see below). When clicking on "OK", number "2" came up. Clicking here on "OK" shifts me to a loop between those 2 messages. After the fourth "OK" the messages disappear, Logger32 gets started but only one empty line of the logbook is visible. When ever trying bringing back the page to its normal size (in my case 12 lines) the whole procedure starts again from the beginning. Additional info ... 1. I never had implemented the TEN_TEN field in my logbook setup / grid layout. It's still not there right now. 2. I tried to help myself by replacing all of the different "INI"-files stored within my LOGGER32BACKUP.ZIP to no avail. Some helpful advise what to do for bringing back normal functionality? TIA!! 73 de Peter, OE3EPW <oe3epw@...>

Elecraft K4 ...
Bob
I can't help but notice that Elecraft continues to ratchet up their marketing efforts for the already over-hyped K4x model (soon to be available with a non trivial deposit, at an unknown final price, and unknown delivery date).
Bernie Madoff would be proud of them ...
But, what do I know? They have a significant cult following, so why not exploit it? I really don't care. But, as I have an enquiring mind, does anyone know how/what the CAT interface will be? Is it as before, K3 like, or will it be a direct ethernet API driven interface? SeventyThree(s).
