QTH-Locator in CallBook wrong - hanging of SwissLog - dk4rh - 31-07-2020

I have running swisslog with WSJT-X.

Sometimes a QSO canĀ“t be stored. Reason is, that the CallSign has an incorrect QTH-Locator is stored (think in HamQTH), and Swisslog fill the field with those wrong information - just giving an error that those is wrong.
Sometimes it is enough to press the "OK" buttom - but sometimes directly the wrong information is set again.

In the FT8-Dialogue the CallSign is send with correct 4-digit locator information.
Example 2E0ERL

Could it be possible maybe with an option simple to ignore QTH-Locator information with syntax issues ?

Hello Roland,

You have really found a very strange case! It's obvious this colleague has set wrongly his QTH locator in his HAMQTH profile. I have never found myself a case like this and I guess you won't find a case like this often. However I have added a QTH locator check when reading from callbook databases and in case it's wrong, it won't be copied and no warning message will be released. I have uploaded a beta here implementing this correction:

Simply download and replace this file in the Swisslog folder.

Hi Jordi
thanks. Sorry, have seen this information yet.
Shall I try this version, or is it already included in version 5.100c which came out later on?
