Hi
I have just started using the logging prog and think it great, i noticed like most all the other logs on the awards section there is no wab award!.
maybe an addition of this with the relative devisions and areas may encourage more users!!

just a suggestion
Thanks for a great softwear :D

Hi Rob,
Welcome to the forum and Log4om.

We will include WAB in the awards and there is discussion elsewhere on third forum about recording and display of WAB square information.

With out Net Control facility you can record WAB QSO's as SIG's (special interest group) contacts.

However plenty more to come and it's on our list

73

I have an an ADIF file with "Worked All Britain" Data stored in two "user defined fields"; one field is for the Large Square e.g. SP and the other for the Small Square e.g SP83. Is it possible to import my log so that the data held in my "user defined fields" can be used to populate the Log4om Awards?

What software does the data originate from?

Hi David,
The problem is that HRD will have saved it differently to the way we record the WAB awards.

As an example our record for a WAB reference could be WAB@SX26 CNL whereas the data that you have saved would be just SX or SX26 so just transferring the data won't provide the correct information to display the award results in Log4om.

How many WAB QSO's are there in the HRD log?

We may be able to do it with a couple of Custom update queries in the archive manager, but I would need to speak to Daniele about that.

Hello Terry,

Thank you for your reply. I have approx 500 WAB QSO's. I have just done a ADIF Export and can now see the format Log4om uses for storing the Award Information. With the ADIF / Excel utilities I have, I should be able to modify the data and then import the ADIF file.

Hi David,
Yes 500 is a few too many to do manually Hi

Let us know how you get on and if you run into trouble its possible that we can set up a custom update query but you would need to shift the HRD WAB references into either the ADIF comments or notes fields for that to work, because of course we can't access the HRD program specific fields directly from Log4om
