LOTW download log - summary vs detailed

Post by AJ1DM »

Up until recently whenever I download from LOTW the log lists all of the qso's that were downloaded. This made it convenient to note whether a desired DXCC station had confirmed my qso. Lately, however, the log just states the number of qso's downloaded but doesn't say which ones. Now I have to go to awards to see if my DXCC totals have changed. And it's not because there are a lot of qso's to report. I do my LOTW download often enough that there are usually 10 or less qsos per download, other than when there's been a contest recently.

It seems odd that LOG4OM seems to randomly change the detail level.

Is there a way for me to configure the level of detail in the LOTW download log?

Thanks.

No there is not

Perhaps time to change to version 2 then you would see this?

Doh! I am using Version 2. I posted this in the wrong place.

The level of detail you posted is what I used to see but in the last week or so it more often than not prints the line that says "## qso found", without then listing the detailed qso's.

What am I doing wrong?

It should not change from what I posted unless there are no qso's to download.

Send me a screen shot

Terry,

This just happened. One qso was found, but unlike the example you posted, it did not show the detail for that qso:

Sometimes it shows me the detail and sometimes not. When I first upgraded to V2 it gave the detail every time.

I think that you had already downloaded the QSO(s) previously and thats why your not getting the detail whereas new confirmations are shown as 'New Confirmations'

In other words if its already confirmed by a previous download its no longer new
