MRP40 and Log4OM
Posted: 29 Mar 2021, 00:32
Hello everyone.... could use a little help. I have an IC-7300 set up to work with FLDigi (USB + USB into remote port), WSJTX, JTAlert etc - all working well. I could not get MRP40 working via CAT due to COM port conflicts (Omni rig is set on COM 4 - the remote is on COM 11). COM 4 conflicted and could not be selected in MRP40, COM 11 could be selected but would not run the rig. (I even tried to change the CV-I address of the remote to match the main 7300 without results). If Log4OM is not running I can run MRP40 via CAT. I tried Hamlib with the same results. I am now using a Signalink (no CAT control - sound card only) and MRP40 is running well. I have a preset on the IC-7300 just for this with DATA MOD set to ACC for this to work. Interestingly CW Skimmer which uses Omni rig as well will play nicely with both Log4OM and MRP40 and controls the IC-7300 frequencies via CAT.
The question is logging from MRP40 into Log4OM. I am running both as administrator. I have Log4OM monitoring MRP40's mini-log. When I press save in the MRP40 mini-log it is sent to Log4OM and appears in the recent QSO's tab HOWEVER frequency is not logged. Log4OM "knows" the frequency - the display is correct but it does not integrate with the mini-log import. Date, Time, Call Sign, Name, Band, RST is logged because it is part of the mini-log. As frequency is not part of the mini-log it is not imported. Is there any way to make this happen? Currently after each QSO I quickly double click the entry in Log4OM and edit the QSO manually inserting the frequency.
The only solution to the CAT problem I have come up with involves purchasing a WinKeyer which is now supported by MRP40 and which would create a new, non conflicting COM port address. While this might resolve the COM port conflict I don't see how it would solve the frequency logging issue.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you
