New user End of QSO and DXCC database

Dear all,

First, greetings for such a wonderful software.
I am using Win-EQF, an other great logbook, and am trying Log4OM before switching.

I have three questions :

1 Out of the Net control utility, suppose a QSO with 4 participants. As soon as they come in the QSO, I log them, clicking "ADD" and they appear in the "Recent QSO" zone. As the QSO goes on, some guys are letting it.
How can I simply instruct Log4OM of the end time of each participant ?
I understand that I can edit each participant and manually modify the End time, but it's quite cumbersome if you have a few participants to the QSO.

2 Is it possible to edit the DXCC database to add callsigns ?

3 If I import my ADIF file from Win-EQF with the "Update file" box checked, the DXCC count is false and a few countries like Crozet Isld appears as France. If I do not check this box, the DXCC count is correct (the only false item was Republic of South Sudan), but the country does not appears in the recent QSO "Country" column.
How to correct this ?


Many thanks.

Best regards

Georges F6DFZ

Use the Net control function in utilities it's a drag and drop feature for the start and end times - See the Log4om YouTube video about this, here http://youtu.be/rWLqnUgSumE

Also see the user guide

We hope soon to have a user defined special call sign facility, no you cannot alter the DXCC list

How to correct this
Import without the check box checked and then search for the South Sudan contact and edit it
