Editing a QSO frequency
Posted: 04 May 2014, 23:16
Today I entered a contact in my log after I had changed bands (ddduuuuhhhhh me dumb!) The contact was made on 24 MHz and entered after going to 18 MHz. Anyway, in an attempt to rectify my stupidity I double clicked the entry on the Recent QSO window and in the Band box I changed to 12m then in Freq box, put in 24 and in the bluish box alongside that, put in 917.... save and exit and the frequency for my contact now shows 24.917 instead of the usual 24.917.000
I can live with the shorter frequency display in my log and afrer several go's at trying to get those extra zeros in, gave up. I thought nothing more about it until I did my manual upload to LOTW... LOTW told me that the frequency 0.24917 was invalid for the 12 M band... MY screen says 24.917 so, somehow LOTW is seeing that as 0.24917
Is this a glitch in the software (and my post should be in the Error Reports area) or did I perform the frequency edit incorrectly ??? and, how do I get those extra zeros in to the log ??
