[WT-support] Win test and LOTW dramas

[Joe - OZ0J]

Hi all

I have created an empty log without connection to any radio via CAT etc. I
have chosen DXpedion (HF+50 MHz) and typed in some QSO's manually.

All QSO's in the ADIF file come up with <BAND:3>20m <FREQ:6>14.000 or
<BAND:3>15m <FREQ:6>21.000 for the modes SSB, CW and RTTY.

If you in WRITELOG choose "Txt" (text file) then you have 14000.0 SSB
without the period in the frequency. 

I have tested this with Win-Test V 4.16 and Windows 8.1 and never seen the
problem. Also not on earlier version of Windows and/or Win-Test.


To GM0OBX and DK2GZ:

- what did you chose in Win-Test when starting the program (e.g. contest
name, DXpedediion etc.)?
- what mode did you choose?
- do you have a radio connected ti Win-Test? If you which one?



Vy 73 de OZ0J, Joe

I have never seen the issue Billy describes and it is me that uploads the
contest dumps from WT for the local club here to Clublog, lotw etc and never
a problem (except bad log calls).

<QSO_DATE:8>20140720 <TIME_ON:6>230248 <MODE:3>SSB <BAND:3>20m
<FREQ:6>14.265 <RST_SENT:2>59 <RST_RCVD:2>59 <TX_PWR:3>400 <EOR>

That was from 4.13, Billy will be using 4.16 as he only just registered it
after using it at the club so much in contest.

I just tried a new DXP mode log in 4.16 and for me its fine, so I have no
idea what Billy has done but 

<MODE:2>CW <BAND:3>20m <FREQ:6>14.055 <RST_SENT:3>599 <RST_RCVD:3>599 <EOR>
<MODE:2>CW <BAND:3>40m <FREQ:5>7.046 <RST_SENT:3>599 <RST_RCVD:3>599 <EOR>
<MODE:3>SSB <BAND:4>160m <FREQ:5>1.840 <RST_SENT:2>59 <RST_RCVD:2>59 <EOR>
<MODE:3>SSB <BAND:3>80m <FREQ:5>3.775 <RST_SENT:2>59 <RST_RCVD:2>59 <EOR>

But if it can be broken, I am sure Billy can do it :-D
