[WT-support] QTC Problem

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

I apparently gave the wrong answer here.  Sorry.

If the log is in sync, but not the QTCs, the correct thing to do is to copy
the .WT4.QTC file, not the log file  But if the station name is in the .QTC
file, I don't know know how to correct that.

Win-Test does a pretty good job of re-synchronizing QSOs if a computer goes
down, and then comes back up.  What about QTCs?
