Incremental contest numbers

Post by G3UGK »

Hi all
As a - very - new user of Log4OM, I need a bit of help with using Winkeyer. If I put the Log into contest mode a serial number is generated, which increments automatically with every log entry. So far so goos, and adding the QSO via Winkeyer works just fine. However, my problem is this: how can I get the serial number included in my Winkeyer reply? i.e. I want to send "r 599 xxx" where xxx is the serial number. I assume it needs a macro to link the Log serial number with Winkeyer, but not being adept in any sense at programming, I've no idea how to set about it. Or have I got the wrong idea altogether and I'm missinmg something?

Thanks

Phil

See the Macro information tab of Winkeyer in Log4OM and use the macro command below

<CONT_TX>

Many thanks Terry. Now ro convert "0's" to "T's" as in serial number TT1 rather than 001. I guess this is a setting in the logging window?
