Re: AC Log to LOTW error?

 

The date range for QSOs is set by you when you requested the first certificate and has no relationship to the issue date or expiration date of the certificate itself. It would seem that the fix should be to simply renew your certificate using a start date older than the first QSO ever with that callsign.

Good afternoon

This is not an AC Log error. It is either the operator or something in
the LOTw configurations for TQSL.

When you joined LOTW, you got a certifcate. Mine was from when I was
first licensed, until I joined LOTW, so say a 7 or 8 year span. When
that certificate expired, I got a new one. I forget if it was valid
from the expiration date of the old one, or from the renewal date. It
was good for I think 3 years. I have renewed a couple of times. Once,
I had not uploaded a QSO from the time frame on the old certificate. It
shows the same error and I cannot upload to LoTW.
For example, lets say the QSO was made June 25, the certificate expired
June 30 and the new one starts July 1. Since I didn't upload after June
25 on the old certificate, the new one says it is outside the date
range.

If there is a solution other than ignoring it, I do not know, and I will
not contact ARRL for support. Been down that road and not willing to
take it again.

Hope this helps.

Re: Rescore Field Day Log

 

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your follow up.? It shouldn't matter, but since you are only accessing the file with your one PC now, go ahead and switch back to File Share.? If you still have trouble, please go ahead and e-mail me your log in ADIF direct (not via the e-mail group) and I will see if I can duplicate what you are experiencing here.

Re: Rescore Field Day Log

 

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your follow up.? Your edits are not being accepted at all.? I've not ever seen that before.? How did you load the Field Day log???

The only thing I can think to be the problem is that your protection software isn't allowing the Field Day software to save the edited file.? If they sent you an ADIF file, you should have been able to start a new, editable file in the Field Day software and then import the log and edit it as needed.??

Re: 13 Colonies Bug?

 

Hi Ken,

Thanks for your e-mail.? The only reason I can think of is that you inserted a QSO with an earlier date than the 13 Colonies window.? Clicking File > Sort log on date will remedy that.

I hope this helps!

Re: AC Log to LOTW error?

 

Have you checked the dates on your signing certificates in TWSL?

You can display the dates by viewing the properties.

if the QSO was before your earliest date on the certificate then TQSL will not sign it.

Re: AC Log to LOTW error?

 

Hi Maury,

Thanks for your e-mail.? That error is being returned from ARRL's TQSL software, not AC Log.? If the QSO date is within the certificate range date, that is something the folks at LoTW will need to help you with.? Otherwise, you will need to update your certificate.

Enjoy!
