Hi Tom,

Is the time difference plus or minus a few minutes?  Can you give a step by
step example.  Off hand, I can only think that time difference is due to AC
Log maintaining the initial time, when you first tabbed into the field.  If
the QSO is 3 minutes, the time will not be advanced.

Best wishes, Kelvin Marsh - M0AID

Subject: Question On Propper Time Recording In A C Log

Hi, all.

 

Now, I guess it's my turn to ask a question regarding A C Log.

 

As I am working various W1AW portable stations for the ARRL Centennial
Event, I'm noticing a weird problem in A C Log regarding proper recording of
QSO times.

 

When I did my own W1AW/8 operation two weeks ago, I found that if I tabbed
to the time on field, and hit enter, qso times would be properly recorded.

 

However, I'm not finding that to be the case now, when I'm using a new log
within A C Log to keep track of the W1AW portable stations I work for the
QSO Party event.

 

If I hit enter at the time on tab, I often find the time to be incorrectly
recorded by several minutes, and have to enter the correct time manually.

 

I can't figure out what might have changed in the software between now, and
the time I did my own W1AW operation.

 

Is there something I need to double-check in configuration settings, or am I
missing a step here?
