GRID Squares during Import or UDP Transfer

Post by G8LIY »

Hi,

In the manual there is a reference to "Quality Checks" during adif import & UDP transfers

If I have the various online lookup services enabled
Will any of those update the Grid Square..??

I don't want my FT8 QSO Grids updating,
I have corrected quite a few after email exchanges with the OM's
They have subsequently updated QRZ and/or FT8 Grid
My adif is "clean"

Thanks for any help

Update to version 2.18 which gives you the choice to not do any updates

Hi Terry,

So I have installed the latest version...
sorry
I can't find anything related to keeping grid squares during imports or udp

I see the one in settings for keeping manually entered grid squares

Thanks... Dave

Does not specifically mention grid squares it says no quality checks and none as shown below

This is relevant to ADIF import whereas a UDP transfer does not update any information already present just fills where data does not exist - e.g. N1MM does not include country or DXCC data in its UDP transfer, we append that missing data.
