[WriteLog] LOTW Trouble with Signing a QSO Cabrillo file

Jim

The easy way to do it is export your log  in ADIF format and will be easy.

The cabrillo option still there  because OLD files From OLD logs  can be 
uploaded easy to LoTW  or easy to convert other
formats to TEXT like cabrillo and  make it possible  like I did years ago with 
old logs  and some files captured by hand 



If you want to do it in cabrillo, OK  but you need to work more  like making 
your contest file

Open  TQSL 
from FILE  select  PREFERENCES
Go to CABRILLO Specs
ADD the name of your  CONTEST like is in your cabrillo file
Select HF    and  write the field number  where the CALL  (Other stations Calls)

has example  CQP   is HF  field 8
DXEP  is 7

count the tabs or separations to know the field number

Hope you find the solution to this problem you can avoid using ADIF , but is 
good to find another solution

Subject: [WriteLog] LOTW Trouble with Signing a QSO Cabrillo file

Using Writelog 10.85k.

Having trouble signing a Cabrillo file from a QSO Party.  Specifically 
this years FQP and AQP...

The error in TQSL is

> Cabrillo unknown CONTEST: AL QSO Party

Saved the .wl as a ADI file and TQSL signed it with no problem.  

So has anyone else experienced this problem?  Is there a solution?
