Send the Cabrillo file as an attachment. It should be named (in your case) N0OBM.LOG See the contest sponsor's rules for what to include in the subject of the email.
I would strongly recommend that he use one program or the other. Either one works well - why use different programs? In fact, you can use one computer with two radios with either program. Why make it
I interpret what they've said to mean 140000Z December 02 to 152400Z December 02 (using your Military notation - I used to be in MARS where we used that too). They reference the day in terms of UTC -
WinKey looks very interesting, but it will need the support from logging software authors for it to have any value to the general amateur community. The $30 price is for software developers and up to
I'm very interested in all of this as I am trying to adopt Writelog as my primary contest logging program. Back in the days of 8088's, there were essentially only two methods of computer logging, whi
Don, That is an excellent reference, but what was wrong with your set up? 73, Bob N5NJ -- Original Message -- From: "Don Bergmark" <dbergmark@worldnet.att.net> To: <writelog@contesting.com> Sent: Fri
You cannot transmit on both stations at the same time. This means that you can only give out one series of numbers and there should be no problem. All categories in this contest limit you to one tran
Bill, I've been using LPT forever with similar results( and the same components) - of course, my most modern o/s is Windows Me. 73, Bob N5NJ To: <writelog@contesting.com>
I just did what you described and mine worked perfectly. It even prompted me to fill in my state before creating the Cabrillo file. I'm using version 10.36G Are you using an older version perhaps?
You could just enter the qso information in Writelog, create the Cabrillo file, and then edit the date and time for each QSO using an ASCII editor (Notepad, Wordpad) to be correct. In fact, you can s
OK, I'm interested. What would trigger it being cleared automatically? You type in a dupe callsign and it dissappears? What if you work YU7ZZ, then later work YU7ZZZ? Does YU7ZZ disappear as soon as
It seems that Writelog's Cabrillo file creation process does not verify that what you indicate as your entry category is valid for the particular contest. I don't think that it's asking too much for

I know that I did this and corrected all of the anomalies in the namedmul.ini file after I got dinged for submitting last year with XXXX as a section for W3PP in Delaware. It was because I logged his
Wayne, Thanks for clearing the air on this. I hope that W0MN will lessen his criticisms for a while, although I saw a response that didn't indicate that he would. Oh well. Now, how can we be product
As we all know, Wayne can defend himself, but I feel the need to comment. Maybe Well, W5XD is not IBM. This software does not cost millions of dollars. Also, he has a real job that takes up most of h
Hi Don, I agree and think the responsibility falls on the person doing the logging - especially in the case of SS. There are a limited number of multipliers, and we all know what they are - sort of.
I'm not certain how to fix it in Writelog, but CQWW doesn't care what country your program thinks it is, so your entry will scored properly. Cabrillo format entries go to CW@CQWW.com N5NJ CQWW Commit
For these two radios, a mono plug may work, but many other radios that use a stereo jack for the key / keyer paddle input may not. If you use a stereo 1/4" plug at the radio end of the cable, it will
Just to confirm what Eric said, my experience was similar durig this past CQWW CW where I ran WriteLog for the first time in a network configuration. At first, it worked perfectly, but then, my main
