I started playing with the simulator this evening. It is an amazing piece of programming work and would be helpful for anyone wanting to get warmed up before a contest. I am trying to practice for 2B
Thanks. Turning off S&P stations helped a lot. Turning off the red box made it more realistic. Hardest thing about 2BSIQ is that the automation never stops. You have to get a call and start typing it
WriteLog already allows class D entries to log other class D entries. The only gap is in the scoring, which should not be a show stopper for operating the event. It may not make sense to change the F
I am using ARRL VHF QSO Party. What is the correct contest selection? _______________________________________________ WriteLog mailing list WriteLog@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman
Hard to say on #1. As for #2, WL is great at moving between modes. To switch to RTTY just right click in the logging window and select RTTY view. To switch to FT modes, right click and select DigiRit
Set the macros using Setup - Document Settings - CW/RTTY/SSB messages... Check your port settings that you are set up to send CW. Setup - WriteLog Options - Ports... Randy K5ZD I'm trying to operate
I see something similar here if I try to do CW when I have the Digirite or the MMTTY (RTTY) windows enabled. If those windows are on, then CW messages do not send. It acts like the messages keys are
I used WL in NAQP with no issues, so I don't think it is the software. How are you doing the keying? Possible RFI? Randy K5ZD Greetings, I've had an ongoing problem using WriteLog with CW breaking up
The examples all show screen shots so that is probably not much help for you. Make sure the MicroHam software specifies a port for WinKey. In Writelog, go to ports and set CW keyer type to K1EL Winke
I suspect this is a clerical error when they did the PE update. But, best way to know is to ask the ARRL contest desk. (Then please let us know!) Randy K5ZD But the list of approved abbreviations for
Agree! I want to control this myself rather than have the software do it. If implemented, it should be an optional setting. K5ZD yes! I find XIT, or slight adjustment of the big knob to help tremendo
In this regard, I have to congratulate Wayne W5XD and the WriteLog development team. They seem to produce release after release that just work. No contesting ending failures. Compare that to some oth
I talked to the guy that runs the web site. The log is accepted with PE or PEI. It is just the raw score that is calculated by the web site that misses PEI. I expect the log checking software will ac
Go to Setup, Save Configuration. This saves the settings separately from the log file. Not new to Writelog (been using it off and on for 25 years), but haven't used it in a long while. I just downloa
I was wishing I could edit some of the QTC related messages myself. I didn't even realize there was a key to ask for the repeat of a particular QTC. I was using Alt-K each time! It's alt-<number>? Wh
Let's say 2 or 3 messages get garbled so much you can't tell if it is 2 or 3 or even 4 that you missed. So you have to guess how many boxes to skip. Then you find you are wrong. Now you have a bunch
You can go back in RTTYrite and reclick the QTCs. The very good news is that Writelog will overwrite the bad entry with the reclick. You don't have to erase. I can confirm that it does this. Even if
Does it show a blue dialog box telling you Windows is protecting your PC? Click on the More Info link. Then click on Run Anyway. Randy K5ZD I have been trying to do this upgrade for the CQWWDX at the
I was connected to the WC2L node for the weekend. I think I may have gotten dropped two times. No idea why, but you notice it when the spots stop rolling in. I would just reconnect and keep going. Ma
This is a good request. I can see and I made this mistake more than once. I suspect the challenge is that for DX contact, there is no exchange other than RST. So WL would have to look at the call to
