LOTW Error "selected station location could not be found"

[WB4IZC]

I am trying to learn Log4OM and its features. Great program so far. I am blind and may be missing something so any assistance would be welcome. I am able to download LOTW QSL information using Log4OM and upload LOTW info by using TQSL rather than Log4OM. When I attempt to upload QSL data to LOTW using Log4OM I receive the following error message "the selected station location could not be found."

First I thought this might be because I was logging W1AW portable stations as W1AW/7 and having to go in and manually change the State from CT to OR. To test this, I selected a normal QSO to QSL and experienced the same results when trying to use Log4OM to handle LOTW upload.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Steve,
It's not the station that you worked location that the message refers to it's your station location that you entered in the Log4om options menu that are wrong

Terry,

I think I got now. I found this post and I think I now have it fixed.

Hi Colin,
When you get the error shown in your screen shot it is because you have the 'Station Location' (Name) incorrect.

I have just updated the user manual with a step by step instruction for LOTW and you can download the revised version from our web site

Thanks for your help Terry

Steve,
I am pleased that you have now resolved the issue.

To save confusion I have deleted the other two posts that you made to this thread because the content was not relevant to your problem

I have the "the selected station location could not be found" problem too. I am unable to upload to LoTW via Log4OM.

The Dropbox file referenced in this thread doesn't seem to be available anymore.

Under Log4OM, Settings, Station Info tab, I see nothing wrong -- Call sign is correct and matches TQSL, same for Locator.

Any ideas? Thank you.

You have incorrect information in the Log4om Options/external logs/LOTW location field

The post is a year old nearly but an updated file is available on our web site download page

Wrong place - go to Log4om Options/external logs/LOTW location field

Under the External Logs tab, I have filled out The LOTW Settings. When I look at the temporary path folder contents, I see .adi files present. I used the TSQL program by itself to upload directly to LoTW and the upload worked, but I was prompted initially to select my station location (I have only one). After selecting the location, the upload to LoTW completed without error.

I looked for the file you mentioned on the download page, but I just don't see it.

Thanks.

It's a tempory folder which we temporarily put the LOTW adi in while the program works, afterwards this tempory adi file is deleted.

If you put your LOTW TQSL station location in the external logs tab you won't be prompted for it on upload

It's directly under the downloads here

It's called Log4om 1.19.0 user guide, you could of course download it in the programs help menu!

Did you watch any of the Youtube videos, they might help you
