There are (of course!) lots of things to consider when operating from more than one location.? Like making sure you use the proper TQSL location record when you upload to LoTW.? ? However (!) most of that can be dealt with once you decide how to store your location each time you add a QSO to your ACLog database.? ?Even though there is a data element named 'My_Gridsquare' in the database schema used by all N3FJP loggers, that particular data element cannot be referenced for update by the available facilities in ACLog (unfortunately).? ?So I have chosen to assign the name 'My_Gridsquare' to the 'Other2' data element.? And (fortunately) ACLog allows the Other2 field to be placed in the main QSO entry area with the title of 'My_Gridsquare'.? ?And it is identified as 'My_Gridsquare' when I export my QSOs to an ADIF file (and also when the behind-the-scenes export happens during the automated process of uploading to LoTW).
So wherever I am operating, I enter that location's grid in 'My_Gridsquare' and then when I choose to upload to LoTW I can easily select a given location's QSOs and select the matching TQSL location record.? ?I have operated from at least 40 different locations/grids and with a little 'being careful' I have been able to keep LoTW locations correct for my QSOs.?
