RST in JS8 mode

JS8Call by KN4CRD has found my interest again.
I added JS8;JS8;MFSK;JS8 to ModeList_user.csv.
Since ADIF file polling is working just fine with WSJT-X, I created a new Log4OM CONFIG pointing at my JS8 ADIF log file. QSO data is correctly imported into Log4OM, including the FT8 style SNR figures.
When I edit such a QSO, RST shows as 599 dropdown lists. How can I tell Log4OM to use JTxx mode RST also in JS8?

What version of Log4OM are you using - See Help/About

Ok that's the same version I have and it's the latest version.
I have not found an issue but let's make sure we are both on the same page, I am assuming you are doing the following!
1. A QSO is automatically imported from the adif file
2. The imported QSO shows the correct RST sent and received values in the Log4om recent QSO window (F8)
3. You open the QSO edit window by double clicking on the QSO in the recent QSO window
At this point you say the RST value gets changed?

- imported QSO shows RST -01 / +01
- edit QSO: RST shows as 599 / 599, the default CW value
- Cancel button: original RST -01 / +01 still ok in the log
- Save & Exit button: RST overwritten with 599 / 599.

This problem still exists after every Log4OM update:
Default RST for manually entered JS8 QSOs is 599, should be +00 like FT4/FT8...
Solution: Add a JS8 line to rst.xml:
Code: Select all
</RSTItem>
<RSTItem>
<GroupName>JTx modes (JT*, ROS*)</GroupName>
<DefaultForModeType>false</DefaultForModeType>
<ModeType>DIGITAL</ModeType>
<Modes>
<string>JT44</string>
...
<string>JS8</string>
...
<string>FSK441</string>
</Modes>
<DefaultValue>+00</DefaultValue>

Markus,
Is this in Log4OM V1 or Log4OM V2 ??

Nolan,
Log4OM 2.19.0.0 portable. With any new update I used to overwrite only older files, but then was told in this forum to overwrite all files in the program folder.

Markus,
You can edit/modify the RST file and add "_user" to the end of the filename. Then the L4OM V2 updates won't overwrite that core file, but will use your modified file as well when running the APP.
I was wondering why the post in the V1 Forum section as you are using V2 ??

Nolan,
Thanks for your solution. Sorry for having misplaced my post in the wrong section. Just stumbled over my old post and forgot to check.
