Laurie, Yes, I use JTAlert, but not for logging. The logging data are sent directly from WSJT-X to HRD Logbook, which apparently does the same alpha character stripping as JTAlert. On the next session start, I let JTAlert scan the database, to have the alerts working properly.
(Outside Roman's subject: Generally, I let the various applications (JTAlert, GridTracker, etc.) receive their input data from the one and only original source, i.e. WSJT-X. I am aware of the automation opportunities in JTAlert and GridTracker and that many users let data go from one application to the next (including their logbooks), and then to upload to eQSL, QRZ.com Logbook and other web databases. My hard earned experience is that letting data pass through several "processing plants" on the way to my logbook, introduces multiple sources of process errors. So, having spent countless hours tracing and understanding errors, I like to keep things as simple, understandable and controllable as possible. Uploads to QSO/QSL databases on the Internet (LoTW, eQSL, etc) I always do manually, as I work from various IOTA and non-IOTA locators with two call signs (standard and contest). I upload standard QSOs during or after the operating session, whilst contest QSOs have to wait past the log submission deadline, except for LoTW, which is a double blind matching database. With HRD Logbook uploads are simple and fast (seconds), and I have full control of the data I upload.) 73, Frode LA6VQ tor. 20. okt. 2022 kl. 00:25 skrev Laurie, VK3AMA via wsjt-devel < wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>: > > > On 20/10/2022 12:05 am, Frode Igland via wsjt-devel wrote: > > I have used the "Tx power" field in the WSJT-X logging window for most > > of my tens of thousands of WSJT-X QSOs.
