I'm a first time user of LOG4OM - and it was just an oversight when doing the initial install of the program. We're good now and it's behaving how I wish it to behave.

I have seen similar behavior and checked my ITU and found it was 8 vs 6. I fixed it today

I also have a lot of REQUESTED status under the LOTW Confirmed field since 6/22/2025. Even after several sessions with LOG4OM close and opened over that time, most remained at REQUESTED, some changed to YES or NO but most are REQUESTED.

This never happened before, as after a LOG4OM session, the next time they showed YES or NO.

Any thoughts on it there was a code change in those area. Or is there a process to fix this behavior, or is now the way it is?
Thanks and God Bless,

LOG4OM v23.6.1.0

Will do on the bulk change. Why does it get marked as REQUESTED when it has been sent? I do regularly download LOTW via the QSL Manager. Thanks for your help.

Check your settings in Program Config/Confirmations

Also watch the three Youtube tutorials Confirmations, confirmations 2 and confirmations 3

BTW no code changes in this area for several releases

Phillip,

You didn't mention if you are also using the FTxx mode of communications. However, I did see on your QRZ page that you do a lot of FT8.

Thus you are likely using WSJTx, JTAlert and/or Gridtracker and such related 3rd party APPs.

Those APPs have options/settings that also set the flags for uploading Q's and labeling with Yes, No, Requested, etc..

Log4OM does not change such information as it comes from those 3rd party APPs.

Be sure to check the settings in all those APPs you use and choose what you want them to do.

Myself I'm old-fashioned and simply use Yes and No for Q's being sent/received. You can be sure those 3rd party APPs do that as well and then let Log4OM properly adjust the Yes/No status when the Q's are uploaded via QSL Manager.

And, as Terry noted, be sure to watch the 3 Y/T videos about Confirmations.
