[WriteLog] WL problems during AADX

[Clive Whelan]

1. Country resolution is a function of the DXCC country file. My version of
WL (10.53) and country file record E21EIC/8 correctly as Thailand.


2. Anything /QRP is an invalid callsign, and is an invention of the
operator, not a part of the callusing. I recommend that you simply do not
log it at all. This was the subject of a long running thread on the WL and
cq-contest reflectors some time ago. Simply delete the /qrp from the
offending callsign(s). That will solve the problem.

Subject: [WriteLog] WL problems during AADX


I have some problems concerning the way WL resolve DXCC information from
callsigns. The report below applies to AADX contest and latest WL version on
two networked PCs running under W98.

1. E21EIC/8  WL consider it as E81 (???) Juan de Nova. Consequently it
assigns zero points and no multiplier to the QSO.
2. /QRP callsigns: WL does not resolve them at all. Moreover, when
introducing such callsigns in the log on one PC, both networked PCs start to
populate the log with the same QSO duplicated in an apparently endless loop.
If I shut down the machines and start over, after deleting the offending QSO
from one machine, it starts to replicate again on both PCs. The only
solution I've found is to delete the QSO from both logs. I have had two such
occurences during AADX. So now our log is three QSO and one multiplier down.

Help, please.
