Log4OM

Is it possible to draw lines between the stations plotted on google earth and my station. I think it maye be a feature in the kml file?

Already there see Page 47 and note 'Connections'

Kinda works but my location is offset when displayed on Google earth. My location is correct in log4om. I can't seem to add an attachment .jpg to show you a picture of what I mean it says file too big at 276Kb.

If I select one qso it plots my whole logbook.

Did you right click on the QSO and choose 'Selected to KML connections'? works for me!

No I selected kml connection map at the bottom. If you have 1 record selected the whole logbook is plotted. If you select 2 records only the first record is plotted.

Not sure what your doing wrong but it works fine here

1. In Recent QSO window I selected 4 QSO's using Ctrl/Left mouse click as in normal Windows selection methods as below.





2. I then Right mouse clicked on one of the highlighted QSO's and selected 'Selected to KML Connections' with the result that GE displays the four stations selected

Just had another go with the google map. If I select one record it plots my whole logbook. If I seclect 2 it plots one. If I select 3 it plots 2. The other thing I noticed is that if you set the My Grid Square to a 10 digit code it plots the lines very accurately from my location, which is good. The weird thing is, when a qso is logged from FT8 it only saves my grid sqaure as a 4 digit code. Is it possible to log my full 10 digit code for every QSO?
I'm using log4om 2 V2.13.0.0.

Ah I can answer the grid question myself. The grid is sent from the ft8 software and the maximun number of digits allowed is 6.
