ADIF Import - TIME_OFF field ignored? (Version 2.15.0.0)

Post by N1FG »

Hi -

Very new Log4OM2 user coming from HRD and storing onto MySQL (MariaDB 10.6) - database setup and working well. (Thanks for all the notes/comments/bug reports on that phase.)

Now working to import existing HRD QSO's but Log4OM2 does not seem to recognize the <time_off> tag it seems? I have looked through the manual, the forum (insofar as possible) but if there is a post describing this issue/resolution please forgive me.

Thanks -

Have you checked that the files that your importing actually contain the time off field as I seem to recal the HRD did not save that?

And your importing an ADIF file from the file menu into an sqlite database?

Terry I’m importing an ADIF file into a MySQL database, and all fields other than TIME_OFF are brought in correctly.

Terry, this is an HRD single QSO export (redacted information) but can display the problem. (I couldn't attach an ADI file so I changed the extension to .TXT)

Larry

Edited to add: Also tried switching to SQL Lite database but it shows the same issue also.

It might be because the adif does not seem to contain a QSO_DATE_OFF which relates to the time off I will check.

I am surprised that we have no other reports about this but then not many people care what time the QSO finishes!

"not many people care what time the QSO finishes!" hihi, I'm sure that is true Terry, especially among DX'ers and Contesters!

For me I am (in large part) a straight key (and bug) CW fan so short or long QSOs are the ticket!

Thanks for looking into this.

Terry that is exactly the issue!

When I add the <QSO_DATE_OFF> tag Log4OM imports it fine! That's great news and allows me to use SED (or emacs) and easily run through my QSOs to import them.

Sure appreciate the help, I would have never found it.

Please inform HRD that their ADIF export is missing information
