FT4 - LOTW download / sync problem

Post by DK9JC »

Hi forum,
when FT4 was new I just added FT4 manually in my modelist. That was ok to log my QSO via JTAlert and WSJT-X automatically.
Now, with the new TSQL I can upload those QSO to LOTW. I see those matched on LOTW when I log-in on the website but can not download / sync the QSLs from LOTW.

I always get
DATE/TIME "QSO NOT FOUND" : CALL TIME DATE 20m MFSK8
Any ideas how to fix that issue? I use 1.37.0.
modelist: FT4 FT4 MFSK FT4
ModeList_user: FT4 FT4 FT4

I saw the post "If you patched modelist or added modelist_user please remove it as FT4 should be logged in ADIF 3.x as MFSK / FT4".
When I removed the whole line "FT4 FT4 FT4" in ModeList_user the mode FT4 was not there in the programm anymore.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Did you update JTAlert to 2.13.7 which has this enhancement


From the Hamapps release notes


"Option to log FT4 mode QSOs as ADIF 3.1.0 compliant, MODE=MFSK + SUBMODE=FT4.
Available for ADIF File, last QSO ADIF, DXKeeper, Log4OM, & HRD 6.5+ only.
*** NOTE *** Do not enable this option unless your Logger has been updated
to require this MODE/SUBMODE for FT4 QSOs.
(Default: OFF, Window: Settings, Section: Logging)."

You should also DELETE the mode list user file to enable the new default mode list file to work

Did you download Log4om v 1.37????

OK, did not delete the whole "ModeList_user" file. I just deleted it now and I was able to download the LOTW QSLs.

Problem solved. Thank you for the support. :ugeek:
