Also a Frequency Question

Post by kc2nyu »

I have an intermittent issue with frequency entry. In my logbook entry I entered 14.218, in the recent QSO tab (f8), it shows as 14.218 where as all the other QSO entries have three extra decimal places ( 14.218.000 ). When I go to upload this entry to LOTW , I get an error msg saying that the freq .014218 is out of range. So what I am I doing wrong? how can I avoid this error in the future?

Where are the QSO's that log as, for example 14.234, originating from

1. Direct manual entry just Omnirig or Hamlib CAT control to radio

2. Some external software like HRD, JT65, DM780 or FLDigi

Terry - these qsos were manually entered by me. I seem to be doing something incorrectly

Terry- using 1.25.0.0. I have wondered if I am just manually entering freq incorrectly? If I want to enter 14.125 - do you just enter that or do you have enter 14.125.000 ?
