I just purchased TRLog at Dayton, and am trying to get it going. So, I =
will probably be asking a few basic (things I should already know the =
answers to) questions. Any help is appreciated.
I cannot start a contest in DOS by the method in the manual (p.25). =
This seems to be because the install disk did not put some kind of path =
statement in AUTOEXECBAT as it said it would do. What exactly should I =
type into the AUTOEXECBAT file, and does it matter where in the file it =
goes?
The program is copying the dx cluster, but all I get is gibberish. I =
dont know why. The TNC is in the Terminal Mode, and works fine with my =
other TNC programs and contest logging programs. Also, there does not =
seem to be any such statement as EIGHT BIT PACKET PORT =3D TRUE/FALSE in =
the LOGCFG.DAT choices as shown on p58. I dont know if that would have =
anything to do with it. The communication rate with the TNC is said to =
be 2400 baud, however the port speed is usually 9600 baud in other =
programs. Could this be the problem?
I set up the Texas QSO Party as a test contest. I can see a bunch of =
counties on the screen as mults. However, these start with the letter =
"S" and proceed through "Z". Where is "A" through "R"? How do I get =
these up on the screen?
Thanks
