Filter question


 

I wrote the following filter in Spot Collector:

(SPSNR>ReqSNR
or
LPSNR>ReqSNR)
and
<Needfilter>
and
<LotWfilter>
and
<Modefilter>
and
<Bandfilter>
and
<Agefilter>

I "expected" to get spots with SP or LP of over 50, and higher, and I do, but I also get some spots where SP and LP are both blank (NOT on six meters).? Did I misunderstand something?

Thanks,
Earl / KD5XB

+ If SpotCollector can't determine an accurate location for a Spot Database Entry's callsign, it cannot direct PropView to forecast a short path and long path SNR.

+ In the Spot Database Entries in which SPSNR and LPSNR were blank, what was contained in the ReqSNR field?

Well, it wasn't SPSNR that was blank, it was SP and LP.

Here's one example --

W4EBB --

SPSNR? ? ?LPSNR? ? ?REQSNR? ? ?SP? ? ?LP? ? ?ActualSNR, ActualSNRMAX and ACTUALSNRMin are all -9999
-9999? ? ? ? ?-9999? ? ? ?-9999? ? ? ? ? ? 0? ? ? ?0

Sorry for the delay,
