ADIF to LoTW

Post by ct1dbs »

Hi Log4OM Team

Thank you for all the work! :D

Today I tried to upload an adif file, that was imported from Log4OM. However LoTW (using TQSL) stated that no mode is on the adif file.

I checked with a note pad and, indeed, the mode is not on the file.
All the previous files are ok and the same procedure to produce the adif file was used.

What can I do produce the correct adif file ?

First check that the mode is shown in the F8 recent QSO's window correctly! it may be that for some reason that you did not record the mode?

I also have to query why you are generating a file and uploading it to LOTW and not using the built in Log4OM LOTW upload system?

Hi

Thank you for the quick reply.

The mode is ok (checked)

I tried to upload using the built in Log4OM LOTW and eqsl upload system but both indicate :
Eqsl - "bad mode"
LoTW - "mode not set on line 9"

I did this in the past with zero problems.

Probably a non ADIF/LOTW recognised mode like the new digital modes MSK144 etc, you need to adjust the translation of modes in your tqsl program

Thank for the help Terry, but I wish that's the case!
All my QSOs are CW, an old mode...

Progress so far



Pedra duly sent me a support request and additionally the SQLite database file

I set Pedra's sqlite database up on my Windows 10 machine using Pedra's configuration file from the support request, so in effect I am running an exact replica of Pedra's set up.

I tried every ADIF export that Log4OM provides (File menu, QSO Archive Manager and QSL Manager etc) and in every case the mode was exported correctly to the ADIF file.

My conclusion has to be that there is an issue with Pedra's Log4OM installation so I recommended an uninstall of Log4OM using the Uninstaller provided by us, but recommended to make a backup first of course.

I then suggested a fresh download of Log4OM and install. All data should be preserved including the configuration files, assuming that Pedra does not start manually deleting files and folders.

Once that is done I have asked that Pedra does another ADIF export and report the results to me.

Watch this space :D
