Hmm, I guess thinking about it now that I've had dinner my second suggestion
wouldn't work because it operates on qdf files.  So skip that one.  Your
choice is to edit the .log file and replace the sent info name with whatever
you send (and you can use the xmtr number to know what to plug in) or you
can use one name.

Sorry for the confusion.  I brainfarted.

The rules also say one other thing...
5.b.iii Shall keep a separate log for each transmitter.

However in the log submission part it doesn't say anything about having
separate logs (it seems to indicate a singular log)?  I haven't submitted a
multi log before for naqp so I have no idea what they really want.

What you are observing is the fact that NA does not save sent information
for each QSO.  I bet that the name you get in the sent field changes based
on which qdf file is loaded when you generate the log?

There are several ways around this:
 - Use the same name on both xmtr.
             or
 - Use NAU.EXE, F1-File Conversions, F6 Separate a .qdf, 
   now you have a choice to use by multi-2 xmtr or by computer number.
 - Use NAU.EXE, F1-File Conversions, F4-Merge two qdf files and
   put the appropriate two split files together back into one qdf.
             Or
 - Several other ways come to mind but they involve editing the cabrillo
   file, so for simplicity you can hopefully use one of the first 2
   suggestions.

Hope that helps?

I've been testing in preparation of this weekend's NAQP.  NA 10.59 on 2 PCs 
with LINK network.  The *.log output file does have the 0 & 1 as the last 
character in each QSO line to indicate XMTR1 and XMTR2.  However, the SENT 
TEXT is the same for both XMTRs, even though in each computer's *.QDF file 
the SENT TEXT is different (the name of each operator).

NCJ rules appear to indicate that the name must be correctly indicated in 
each QSO.

How can I accomplish this?
