Re: Unable to upload CQ WPX Cabrillo file

开云体育

Hi Ken,

That is a good question -- I have no real idea where the 142 is coming from..? However, some thoughts:

What frequency do you see when you look at the details of a QSO?? (Right click on a QSO.)
It might be 14200 divided by 100 -- is there anywhere that your system? might be doing this?? Has this happened before?
I don't see a frequency listed on your screen -- the blue box between MODE and your call.? Is the logger reading the correct frequency from your rig?? Is it possible that "142" is somehow stuck in the logger somewhere as a frequency???

Hunt around and see what you might find.

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?

Hello Everyone,

I use N3FJP ACLog on my home computer in the shack. When operating portable, I use either PoloLog or HAMRS, then export the ADIF into ACLog. However, even before using these portable logging programs, I encountered this error (screenshot attached).

After a day of operating in the shack, my usual process for uploading logs is:

I select the Station Location.

I click "All Contacts Not Uploaded".

When I do this, a window pops up saying:
"Errors detected – Station location does not match QSO details."
It also shows a message about the grid square.

I typically hit Ignore and select "Upload New QSOs Only". Sometimes, I go back and manually fix the invalid QSO, but the next time I upload, a different QSO shows up with the same invalid grid issue.

Is there a way to permanently fix this? Can it be bypassed? I’m wondering if I misconfigured the software when I first set it up over a decade ago.

Hello Will,
when starting the program you cannot call up any function and after a short time
the error (No feedback) appears in German at the top of the menu bar.

(See picture)

The logbook is then frozen for about 30 seconds. Only then does it look as if it is loading
the logbook data again and then works normally.

Re: What am I missing?

Thanks Scott and others for the input. Understanding now where this comes from in the sequence of things I understand. I combed through the log and found several Q's which had been uploaded to LOTW but for some reason had not returned an "L" in the Sent Conf By column.?

?

I also found a few QSO's which had invalid callsigns but had been accepted as a valid QSO by eQSL. I DO NOT use eQSL any longer for reasons most DX'ers will understand.

?

Some of the duplicate QSO's I found were State QSO parties and as Fred suspected were county line operations. I edited those so they would be accepted by LOTW.

?

I did not go as far as doing a bulk edit but that was an option.

?

Thanks all,

Hi Dave,

Thanks for getting back.

I can log into the site using the same username and password as listed in ACLog and
my eQSL subscription is up-to-date.

I can upload QSOs without any trouble.

OneDrive is a agent of the Evil Empire. I removed it a long time ago and make sure not
to fall for the "backup your computer" question after a Windows update.

thanks for the quick answer to my question.
I have switched on the DX Cluster completely and restarted the program.
Unfortunately, nothing has changed. The program starts, but brings this message again and after some time,
it loads the logbook content again and then works normally.
I am using Windows 11 and have already reinstalled the program.
Also started with or without Admin. Nothing has changed.

Loading -> no response (approx. 30 seconds) -> then runs normally.

Thanks for the quick answer though!
