Re: VHF Sprint contests

 

开云体育

The standard VHF contest logger -- and it doesn't necessarily score correctly based on the particular sprint.? But the sprints don't need a Cabrillo as they are only 3830 reports, so I just figure out the score myself if I have to.

Re: Ever Seen This?

 

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your e-mail.? I don't have any insights on what you describe specifically, but the only relevant setting in AC Log is to enable the API.? Once enabled, all the subsequent behaviors are controlled by any settings that you have set in the connected program, not AC Log.

Perhaps someone else will have more specific ideas for you.

Enjoy!

I hit TX in WSJT-X and N3FJP shows the corresponding call sign, frequency, and mode but the other data for QSO is blank and then this dialog box pops up.?

As soon as I click “ok” all the data populates for the log and I keep moving.? This happens about 80%of the time regardless of frequency.? Doesn’t happen on FLDIGI, JS8Call, etc.

It’s an annoying thing and I don’t know if it’s my API settings, RFI, witchcraft, or some other thing.? Again, not a software issue just something else.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks and really appreciate software!

Hi Jim.

Every time you send a message about another files update, I scroll down to see what the changes are.? And time after time, the changes are just mind-boggling to a guy like me.? I don't know how you keep up with it all, especially assuming this isn't your day-job either.? But your QRZ profile tells a part of the story.......?



The work you do is important – and amazing – I can’t imagine trying to handle that.? And I’m retired!

THANK YOU for all that you do – that we users get great benefit from.

Re: com0com

 

Only one can use a port at a time.? Com0Com creates virtual port pairs, for example #40 & #41.? Each program would need to use the second port in the pair.? The second one sends to the first one which is what Com0Com sees and sends to the control program.
?
Here's how mine is setup
?
Radio physically connected to the computer running 101Cats (control program for FTDX101).?? 101Cats is designed to work with virtual port programs (like Win4Yaesu or Win4Icom is).? Com0Com created six virutal port pairs for me.? I can run WSJT, FLDigi, Winlink, JS8Call and others at the same time.? Each program is configured for its own virtual port, so there is no "port in use" conflict.
?
Hope that makes sense,

Re: rig cntl

 

I looked to see if I could, but flrig was not in the 'radio options', but then i looked at it and wondered why I would need to,? ?I have unlimited ports available, so no need to share.

I did find wsjtx will use flrig, and then using the api in n3fjp, it shared the com port

Re: Force "Carry OTHER data forward" ?

 

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your e-mail.? AC Log's behavior is entirely contingent on the connected program, but depending on how the connected program. is configured, it may be possible now, or you could ask the developers to modify their software.? Many of the behaviors you are used to seeing when logging manually and tabbing from the Call field also occur when the CALLTAB event is called in our API.? I understand some connected programs do (maybe optionally) overwrite the data after it is called, so even if they do call the CALLTAB event, it is important that they aren't clearing any fields you wish to keep.

Complete specifications on our API are here:


Thanks so much for your kind words on the software!

Enjoy!

Be aware that "No" is an acceptable answer. ACLog is fabulous regardless.

Re: Contest software #aclog #codes #contest

 

Ralph,

To my understanding there isn't a N3FJP contest program directly suited as a Generic contest program.

But, what you could do is use the main N3FJP ACLog program, and adjust the contact input window fields to your preferred input order in "Settings" > "Edit Fields Displayed, Positions and Tab Order" > "Customize Your Configuration" > and save it as a Generic configuration, OR "Load a Saved Configuration" that you have previously adjusted.

Re: com0com

 

Please note N3FJP is now working with my ICOM 7300. The baud rate on the ICOM now matches the baud rate on the N3FJP program. If WSJT or N4PY ICOM program is used N3FJP will not communicate as the COM PORT is being used. Thank you all for your input.
