I could not find any such spots on VE7CC with that text in the spot comment field. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, , http://www.ad1c.us __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Dx4win] Time field question
Worked ZL8X on 17M RTTY using DX4WIN/MMTTY Entered QSO... Didn't realize there was an error in the time field until I uploaded to LOTW. Somehow it recorded the time as ??:?? How can this happen? Why wasn't there some type of error message? Also in the grid field , kP3APq ( AP is in red color fonts ) sometime appears , without any other information entered into the other blank fields. Is this coming from the Packet window ( ve7cc with local host 7300 ) or ? ver 7.07.02 I wanted to reload this version, but do not see it available for download.

But wouldn't it make better sense to have it be some different color BEFORE you stop it, rather than after? I like to be reminded when I haven't done something I should. I suppose you can get into the habit of always clicking the time field and then back to RSTS when someone answers your call, but it would be nice to be reminded, and even nicer to have an alt-Fx combination you could click to freeze the clock without having to tab or click back and forth. Maybe I'm missing something that's already there, in which case I'm sure somebody will enlighten us both. 73, Pete N4ZR The World HF Contest Station Database has just been updated.

[Dx4win] Time field
I have on several occasions forgotten to click or tab on the time field = to stop the clock. Then ,several hours latter, you find that you have not logged the time = correctly. Would be nice if the time field would flash or change color after it is = set. Any suggestions?
