LOTW settings in Confirmations wont save

Post by G7CQW »

The confirmations page will let me enter data but won't save when I click the disk icon or save and exit icon. I have selected LOTW, Sent No, Received No and LOTW.

I'm seeing it in Confirmations, when I enter the data i.e. LOTW and "NO" "NO" then press the disk icon it hasn't saved when I close it down and open it again Terry?

Tony,
I think there is some missunderstanding about that function

Setting the choice of LOTW, eqsl etc and having then chosen the comment type of Yes, No, Requested etc you then click the floppy disc followed by 'save and apply'

Having done this every new QSO that you save will have the LOTW/EQSL/??? status set as chosen above by default.

These settings do not make any changes to existing QSO's you must do that in the QSL manager by bulk or in a QSO edit window.

I have just checked and the choice of confirmation settings is being saved and actioned as the default choice correctly in Version 2.28.0.0

Hi Terry, how I understand it is that before I upload or download to and from LOTW the status would say NO, am I correct or not? I am running V2.28.0.0

When I enter the LOTW and No No then click the disk and press save it doesn't remember the details I entered.

Tony.

Where are you seeing that it has nor remembered the settings?

1. When you save a new QSO and check the LOTW sent/received status before manual or auto upload?
2. By returning to the Confirmations menu in the program config?
3. Somewhere else?

Hi Terry, when I enter the information into the Confirmations screen and save as you have shown above then come out of that screen and go back into the same Confirmations screen nothing is listed. i.e. the LOTW and the "No" "No". I haven't checked the log screen.
