frequency not the same in log4om & QRZ & LOTW

Post by 2e0pkh »

Hi, just seen this in my logs, the frequency is different than what it is in QRZ & LOTW. I'm using cat control to my Yaesu FT 450D & what frequency shows on the radio is the same as what is shown in Log4OM window. This started since I installed version 2, now using version 2.2 & Windows 7.


many thanks.

You do realise that QRZ rounds to the nearest Khz e.g. it does not record Hz so

14.235.500 will be changed in QRZ to 14.235, nothing Log4OM can do about that

LOTW records the frequency we send it so continuing example

14.235.500 in Log4OM becomes 14.235.500 in LOTW but QRZ records 14.235 only - No Hz

Bottom line is you need to ask QRZ about it because its not a Log4OM issue

Hi, I see that LOTW & QRZ round the number up/down when it is .500 or .700, but but both LOTW & QRZ have in some cases a difference of 6/7 KHz.

Many thanks.

Can you share some screenshots of the same QSO in Log4OM, QRZ and LotW ?

Wish you had said that in first place, now on close comparrison I see what you mean

Please send me a support request after first having set trace mode in help and uploading a couple more QSO's

I take the QSO with G3RWF as an example

1.) QRZ.com displays 3.737 (1st screen from the top left)
2.) Log4OM displays 3737.5 (middle screenshot)
3.) LoTW displays 3.73750

looks good to me. Can you share an example where it is off by several kHz ? Too painful to go through all of your QSO in your initial screenshots.

I have had the same problem. Frequency on Log40M would be 14.332. Upload to QRZ would show 14.300. Additionally, I would have to click a second time on the cluster on Log40M to obtain the correct frequency. Thanks, Dan K2DJL
