Re: Issue with Mode and State when Mobile


 

Dean,

Yes. Even with "mobile" selected in the station configuration, the mode (fixed, mobile, portable) is coming out blank in logged contacts and it's blank on QSL cards printed for the contact. Same thing if I select the station configuration that I use when fixed or portable. This is my first use of Logger version 5.04.01.

The state was also coming out blank until I filled in a state in the station configuration file. Somehow this worked just fine before. Not a problem because I have it filled in now, just saying that something changed.

It sure would be a lot easier if the state(s) - up to four of them - could be filled in at the time monitoring starts. Then we'd need only a few station configurations... for fixed, mobile and portable.

Jim,

Are you telling me if you have Mobile in your configuration it is coming
out incorrect in the contact record?

Yes, you will need to create a unique station configuration. For example
I have several configuration records for 40M:

Home 40M
Home 40M - NCS
Home 40M with K7OPQ

This was a big change in the current release.

Dean,

Logger 5.04.01

After creating a station configuration with all fields filled, and
then selecting it when starting to monitor a net, my "mode" (fixed,
mobile, portable status) isn't recorded when a contact is logged.

Also, when choosing to monitor a net, there doesn't seem to be any
place to enter the state if mobile other than to first create a new
station configuration.

Am I missing something?
