Hi Barry -- Some of the items in your second paragraph are also available in WL, perhaps with a slightly different mechanism. Calls typed into the QSO Entry form will go into the bandmap if you hit t
This requires use of the mouse during the contest. Some of us prefer to minimize the amount of time we spend fidgeting with the mouse -- especially in the very fast-paced SO2R format. Here is another
Another solution is an patch panel for 25-pin connectors. The one I have has normal-through connections to the default configuration... but a COM port (or LPT port) connection can be quickly moved to
One approach is to use the WT4I Tools (see the www.writelog.com website to obtain them). The toolset contains a program that will merge Cabrillo files. If your friend really insists on using NA and W
Hi Jim -- WL will, in its current incarnation, do what you want while running. Go to the Entry pull down menu and select "Enter sends Exchange/QRZ". When this menu entry is checked (on), WL will do t
Hi Jim -- I can't figure out where the "extra keystroke" is that you are discussing. (You must understand that I have never used TRlog.) Assuming one doesn't make any typing mistakes, the sequence fo
Isn't Wrangel Island in UA0 Siberia, not Alaska? I noticed something of an anomoly in WL during the contest when logging qso's for AK (and HI). My second qso of the contest was NL7QT on Wrangell Is.
Hi Eric, I checked with DX Atlas v 1.4 and there it is said UA0, zone 19, and the map shows it clearly on top of northern Siberia. Merry Xmas and Happy New Year! 73 Erik Erik Hyllander, SM0LZT e-mail

I have tested a workaround that allows multiple Kachina radios, on networked computers, to be supported by WriteLog. The workaround is a bit obscure but works perfectly. The workaround comes at the e
During the WW CW weekend I used WL for the first time in a multi-op environment. On rare occasions one could be confronted with the need to re-boot a computer in the middle of a contest. In our multi
There is an INI file option to set. You may not be aware of some of the other related INI commands relevant to this mode of operation. I usually set them up as follows: [Configuration] CqFunctionKey=
The SmartClock utility works perfectly for this application. By setting the type face to Verdana Regular at 8 to 10 points (depending on the design of your screen), with yellow characters and no bord
Erik -- As Wayne pointed out, WL will not asset the PTT if you are just speaking into the microphone. You can (and may prefer to) use a footswitch to activate the PTT when speaking live on the air. T
Check to make sure no other function on the computer is configured to use that COM port; e.g., not assigned to a modem, not used to sync up a PDA such as an iPAQ or Palm Pilot, etc. Situations like t
Hello -- I recorded the WW CW contest using CCITT A-law and was not surprised to find the results were less than perfect. I am curious to find out if anyone has done any systematic tests of various c
You have the process correct. For S&P, it's not any different than what you would have done with other programs such as CT. You'll really want to have S&P work this way. There are many situations whe
What operating system are you using? I know you can't use USB ports under WinNT and at least one other Windows operating system... Hi Jerry, No, I have a CT-17 with its own power supply. No, I am try
Bob -- I actually prefer the slide rule format because it shows graphically empty spaces in the band (i.e., potential running frequencies). If you set the kHz-per-pixel value to an appropriate size f
