Lo4OM and JT65-HF

Post by VK3AWG »

Hi guys and girls. I am new to the forum (first post). I am hoping someone maybe able to help me with a software issue. I run Log4OM, OmniRig, JT65-HF and JTAlert. Now when I hit the Log QSO button in JT65-HF it logs the contact fine but within a few seconds the Comm Services button at the bottom of Log4OM goes red. I then have to click on the arrow and reconnect TCP- IP and also re-start communicator. This is a bit of a pain. Hopefully there is a simple answer.

Thanks
Chris

Chris, nothing to do with your current problem, however, as you are probably aware, JT65-HF is quite dated now with no updates for a very long time. Currently there are several other pieces of software available that have been updated and have far more sensitive decoders than JT65-HF. Admittedly, they don't have as pretty an user interface, but they don't take long to get used to. Perhaps you might like to try WSJT-X. The release version has both JT65 and JT9 ability or, you could try one of the almost daily beta versions which has even more modes. Both release and beta's available from here >>> http://jt65-dx.com/download/wsjt-x.html

PS, JTAlert also works with WSJT-X

For everyone's benefit the problem was caused by the path in the communicator 'ADIF file polling' field which had been pointed to the SQLite database not to an ADIF file
