[Elecraft] OT: QRZ.com XML service

2014-01-04 Thread Stephen Selberg
Off topic, but fig'd I'd probably get a quick response here. Been using the QRZ.com XML with HRD for over a year now without any problems. However today, during the rtty contest, hrd wasn't populating the fields for the other station using XML. Tried everything I could think of and still wouldn't

Butte, MT is split between two grid squares, and I have a friend who's P. O. Box address ... and QRZ info ... is in a different grid square from where he lives and operates. Not only that - the centroid of a zip code can be in a completely different grid than a large portion of the

How true, Ken. I'll toss one out to you. Last year, I started digging into 10 digit grid squares. My shack is in a different square than my antenna, and other antennas are in even different squares. ;o) Gary - DN81fv37ab __ Elecraft

I'll bet it has to do with the heavy traffic due to the fact that they finally got their online logbook up and running. I just uploaded almost 10k QSOs and, judging from the confirmation rate, I'm not alone. 73 de Eric, KG6MZS On Aug 5, 2010, at 8:51 AM, Dick, K2ZR wrote: Bill, QRZ.com
