As I have been doing for more years than I can remember, I used WL
(in-state) for logging for FQP from home this past weekend (mixed mode).
Before I relate the issues I encountered with the current iteration of the
in-state FQP module, however, thanks everyone who made it into the log.
And I apologize for all of the requested repeats during the last hour or so
Sunday, but a significant thunderstorm moved in, and the static crashes were
9 plus 20 at times.
Now on to the issues I encountered:
Never before, during setup have I had to select whether driver/no driver.
Last time I looked, my house wasn't portable. Though there may have been an
occasion or two where it felt like it was moving, but that's a different
subject.
The current iteration of the in-state module seems to now be more geared
towards rovers as it was also not as easy as it has been in the past to
designate my county.
Not a deal-breaker, but slightly annoying.
What was annoying, however, was that in the band summary window all Q's
showed as having been made only on 40m despite operating on 40, 20 and 15.
Fortunately, Q's were properly logged on the actual band on which they were
made.
This issue was annoying enough that I switched to a different contest
logging program for Sunday in which the band summary properly showed the
breakdown in its band summary window.
Yes, I had to import Q's from WL, but it was worth it, at least to me, to be
able to quickly glance to keep tabs on the breakdown of Q's made on what
band, either SSB or CW.
The question then is, is it just me that encountered these issues? And, if
so, where did I screw up? Or, if not, is the in-state module broken?
Any input as to where I may have gone astray will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks/73, Doug W4OX
