Phil I agree with you. ALT+S regularly during operations is a very good procedure. Reading some olds messages about backup I found an trick: On Preferences, QSO window options you can set where the Secondary backup should save. I choose Dropbox directory because it makes an automatic backup from all files on it. It's free and works great. I recommend. https://www.dropbox.com/ 73 from Mac PT2CC/PR2C -----Mensagem original----- De: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] Em nome de f5...@free.fr Enviada em: sexta-feira, 29 de junho de 2012 12:42 Para: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Assunto: Re: [Dx4win] save to file Hello Art To avoid this problem, after each QSO I save my log by "ALT + S". 73 F5PHW Phil All info about FO8RZ is on http://f5phw.hamlogs.net/?lng=en ----- Mail original ----- De: "Art Holmes" <w1...@verizon.net> À: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Envoyé: Vendredi 29 Juin 2012 14:30:41 Objet: [Dx4win] save to file I goofed yesterday I was working European stations on six meters . Had about 30 qsos and 20 new countries. I kept referring to the logbook to prevent duplicates. I got tired and decided to stop.. I did not do a save to file at exit and lost all the qsos. I think that when entering realtime qsos the save to file should be automatic either at exit or with each qso. The entries in the " logbook" missled me . The logbook apparently is a temporary file until saved to file.
