Hi Ken,

Thanks for your e-mail.? I'm sorry that you ran into trouble.? When frequency is blank, it is gleaned from the band value.? Since you have a specific value, it sounds like you had rig interface enabled, but not configured properly.? Since 142 isn't in the ham bands, it would not have induced a band change in the software.

When exact frequency is not known, Cabrillo maps band to band to frequency as follows:

1800 or actual frequency in kHz

3500 or actual frequency in kHz

7000 or actual frequency in kHz

14000 or actual frequency in kHz

21000 or actual frequency in kHz

28000 or actual frequency in kHz

You have a couple options including:

- Using a text editor such as Notepad, do a find and replace after you create the Cabrillo file, being sure to maintain Cabrillo specs.

- Transfer the records to AC Log, do a bulk edit and transfer back.

- Edit each record individually in the contest software, clearing out the errant data so that the frequency field is blank for each record.

Next time, make sure that you have rig interface functioning properly if enabled, or select None from the rig list.

Enjoy!

73, Scott

Hey Larry,

I wasn't sure what that column represented, so that makes sense.

But why then, would it show as 142 when the log I created the Cabrillo from says 20m?

See below:

Hi Ken,

You frequency is showing as 142 -- not a ham band, and no where near any for this contest.
