If you are refering to the map it would seem that you have your station locator inserted in the settings incorrectly?

Locator, and country must be inserted as below using your details

Hi Terry,

yes the information is ok in the "country and iota" window but not on the world map and on the right side of the main window distance and short/long path is wrong and the locator also looks strange.

My location is ok and the problem does not show up with other DX-calls I tried, e. g. PJ4M Bonaire I just tried.

I assume the wrong locator (its the same in both cases) of the DX-call is set automatically, but I dont know from where.

By the way I take the calls from the F9 Cluster - strange thing? Does it work for you with the DX-calls I have the problems?

Please check the settings menu 'Station details' it is your own locator and country that is set incorrect as shown I'm my last post - See the screenshot

I used your settings and all works fine for me, see images

Suggest a bad install

1. Uninstall log4OM
2. Download a fresh download of the latest version and install it

Let me know how you get on please

Hi Terry,

I just found the error. After forcing the update (via settings menue) of the clublog and SCL databases now the DX QTH is ok. One of these has delivered the wrong data. Now everything is fine.

Thank you for the support! A useful experience if this error happens again to other users.

Will stop now for today ...
