Its not a bug, its a lack of DATA.  You cannot match a six character grid
like FN00ea to the four character grid of FN00, as there are two many grids
that fall under the FN00 area.



Neil, exactly that was working in all former versions until WSJT-X 1.9.1. It
is only v2.0.0 where 6-digit grids are no longer recognized.

 

Of course you are right, that WSJT-X so far created only 4-digit grid
entries in the log file. BUT: As in the past I'd also used other software
for digital modes, my WSJT-X's pre-log contains only a small portion of my
QSO data. Therefore it was always a good solution for me just to create an
adif file from my standard logbook.

Uwe,

the pre-2.0 log  DOES NOT contain six character grids, other than your own.
I'm looking at my log for the past year, and the logged station only shows
the 4 character grid since that's the only thing sent in the standard
exchange.

Its not a bug, its a lack of DATA.  You cannot match a six character grid
like FN00ea to the four character grid of FN00, as there are two many grids

For confirmation: Just created an wsjt_log.adi file from my standard logbook

recognizes all stations worked before as well as new grids, new grids on
band, new calls, new calls on band and so on as it should.

 

Conclusion: There really must be a bug, that 6-digit grids are not correctly
recognized by WSJT-X 2.0.

 

Really hope that this can be fixed.

Meanwhile I made some more tests. It is indeed the case that WSJT-X
2.0.0-rc1 recognizes from the file wsjt_log.adi only 4-digit grid squares,
but NOT 6-DIGIT GRID SQUARES! Please be so kind as to fix this bug asap.

 

When I change in the wsjt_log.adi file generated from my standard logbook
manually the an entry like <GRIDSQUARE:6>KM46ck to <GRIDSQUARE:4>KM46 then
the station is correctly shown as worked B4. For the GRIDSQUARE:6 entry it
is always shown as "New Grid". This is the reason why I have so many New
Grid  false positives.

Betreff: [wsjt-devel] New Grid false positives

 

Hi,

 

Using WSJT-X v2.0.0-rc1 I am still having lots false positives regarding New
Grids. As there was no helpful answer to my previous post so far, and
assuming that WSJT-X is taking information about worked callsigns, grids, et
cetera from the file wsjt_log.adi, just made the following test: Created a
new wsjt_log.adi with all QSO entries from my standard logbook and saved
into AppData/local/WSJT-X directory. Result: WSJT-X 1.9.1 works with it
without any mistake regarding recognition of B4 stations, but WSJT-X
2.0.0-rc1 now SHOWS EVERY STATION AS A NEW GRID.  Same file in the same
directory. Checked as examples SV5DKL, VP8LP  and ER1PB. They are in my
wsjt_log.adi with following entries:

 <QSO_DATE:8>20170910 <TIME_ON:6>085300 <CALL:6>SV5DKL <BAND:3>17m
<FREQ:4>18.1 <MODE:3>FT8 <GRIDSQUARE:6>KM46ck <COUNTRY:10>Dodecanese
<NAME:19>Efstathios Maliakis <RST_SENT:1>2 <RST_RCVD:2>-8 <NOTES:6>Rhodes
<TIME_OFF:6>085500 <EOR>

<QSO_DATE:8>20171230 <TIME_ON:6>090400 <CALL:5>VP8LP <BAND:3>17m
<FREQ:4>18.1 <MODE:3>FT8 <GRIDSQUARE:6>GD18bh <COUNTRY:16>Falkland Islands
<NAME:10>Bob Mcleod <RST_SENT:1>0 <RST_RCVD:3>-11 <NOTES:7>Stanley
<TIME_OFF:6>090500 <EOR>

<QSO_DATE:8>20180726 <TIME_ON:6>144900 <CALL:5>ER1PB <BAND:3>12m
<FREQ:6>24.915 <MODE:3>FT8 <GRIDSQUARE:6>KN47KA <COUNTRY:7>Moldova
<NAME:17>Simanenkov Sergei <RST_SENT:2>-4 <RST_RCVD:3>-11 <NOTES:8>Chisinau
<TIME_OFF:6>145100 <EOR>

"New Grids" were exactly the grids which are in the adif file (in WSJT-X
2.0.0-rc1 of course as 4-digit grids). 

Is there a bug in WSJT-X v2.0.0-rc1 recognizing 6-digit grid squares from
wsjt_log.adi file?
