Subject: [MacLoggerContest] Contesting Logs
Message-ID: <750437D0-C559-405B-A8EB-73B1BB89C548@mac.com>


I try to avoid Windoze at any cost, and for the vast majority of  
contests that I enter I find that MacLoggerDX and Cab Converter make  
a great combination.  Occasionally; however, I end up using a Windoze  
emulator (Parallels) and another contesting program.

The main hurdle to complete Mac contesting satisfaction are the many  
small sprints that I love to enter.  Most are hosted by various QRP  
clubs.  They don't want cabrillo logs -- they want "standard" log  
files that are plain text and contain basic information such as time/ 
date, calls worked, signal report, etc.

You can use the print function to print out the MacLoggerDX log.   
However, this contains everything in the log, which is too much  
information.

Has anyone figured out a way to either 1) print out just certain  
columns from the log or 2) convert from MacLoggerDX log format to  
other log formats?

Thanks and 73,

John, WA6L

If you use the free database templates you can print out whatever  
data you like in what ever format you choose.

A simple bit of Perl will fix that - I keep meaning to write something for
the VFH contests we have over here that want an 'non-standard' format.
I can't promise anything for a few weeks, but it should be simple.

That was an easy solution -- thanks!

Subject: [MacLoggerContest] DX CLuster Problem
Message-ID: <332009.84428.qm@web52303.mail.re2.yahoo.com>

I have been using MacLoggerDX for quite some time without any problems.
Today when I try to connect to DX clusters I receive failure notices
such as:
 
TNODATA         No data available for reading
TBADNAME      A bad endpoint name was supplied
TCANCELLED   The command was cancelled
 
I can connect to the internet  with  Safari.

Using another computer I can connect to my usual
DX nodes.
 
I have probably inadvertently changed a setting somewhere
in MacLoggerDX but I cannot locate it.
 
My version number shows 4.3.1
 
Thanks for reading.
