In setting up WriteLog V10.46G, February 2004 for the ANARTS contest, I have run across a problem.

Using the F-keys, %T produces the time of day as it should, but it is not refreshed with each use.
The first time the %T is called it prints the correct time. All subsequent %T calls print the same time
that was printed with the first call to %T (no time update).


Thanks for reading. 73 de Joe, W6RLL
Make sure you "log" that QSO that the time applied to before testing it again. Unless you log it, WL may be assuming you are simply trying to re-send the time, and is therefore repeating the original time sent with the QSO.

I don't recall for sure it works this way, but it should.

%T is not a clock; it is part of the sent message, so it does *not* change until you start a new QSO.


The message time and the logging time don't have to be the same - the message time is at the start of the QSO, but the logging time is at the end.

Don't worry about it.
