[ct-user] Re: NAQP File

[Ken Wolff]

The quick answer is, use the text command SETSTATE to enter your state, which will be used in the .LOG file.

The longer answer is, CT should be prompting you for a state at startup if it is not filled in. This is an easy bug to fix and I'll release something tonight. Also, CT doesn't use the state from your mailing address because it might not be the state you are operating from.

There is an extra '0 or '1' character at the end of each QSO line because the multi two category requires it. I could suppress this for single op entries, but it is actually kind of interesting to look at if you are doing a SO2R with two computers. I might take it out for SO logs.

The robot doesn't care about column alignment of the Cabrillo output, but I have changed the field sizes to match the example Cabrillo file anyway.

Note to Mal - my direct mail to you keeps bouncing. The bounce says your mailer won't accept mail from a dynamic IP address although I have a static address. Is there another email address I can use for you?

73, Ken
