Dennis,

This is strange....

I just tried to log a QSO and used the up arrow key function to grab all the data before logging the contact, LOGic immediately jumps to the callbook screen and sticks in the lookup field. Moving the mouse to the logform window and trying to click in any field does nothing except toggle back to the callbook window where it keeps putting the call in the lookup field. The only way to get out this "sticky" situation (hi hi) is to undo the qso. I haven't used the up arrow function for quite some time so don't know when this got broke.

Help......

Thanks, de Brad N8GLS

The above only happens when the Callbook window is open on the screen and the automatic callbook lookup feature is activated (from the callbook tab in the logform setup screen).

Scenario #2; If I close the callbook window (leaving the auto callbook look-up activated) then add a new QSO and up arrow, the callbook window opens and displays the callbook data for that call, and, magically the logform works just fine, nothing "sticks". But that only works once, i.e., if I then enter a new QSO and up arrow again (callbook window still open) then it reverts back to being stuck in the callbook windows lookup field with Undo being the only way out.

Scenario #3; If I clear the automatic callbook lookup checkbox in Logform setup, then enter a new qso and up arrow, the curser now gets stuck in the logform Call field, I cant mouse to any other field, but I can click on the radio buttons, hitting Undo is the only way out.

Hope this helps to debug...de Brad N8GLS

Dennis,

Thanks for that. I am a QRZ subscriber so I enabled QRZ Subscription in callbook setup and disabled QRZ. As you suspected, the logform works fine now, no more "sticky" issue.

But, after enabling QRZ Subscription, the callbook window's web display is blank and the only information displayed in the information window at the left is callsign, name, and country. Show pics and bio are enabled. Did I need to enable something else ?? Don't need a quick response, this isn't a show stopping issue.

Thanks,

Brad

Dennis,

Ok...tnx for looking at it, or should I say thanks for doing it tuit. Seems you need a few more rounds for the other tuits.....I for one would be more than happy to buy you a few rounds.....

For now i'm just gonna revert back to using qrz.com as the callbook and avoid the up arrow.

Hi Dennis,

Been going back to some old anomalies to see if by chance there may be a fix on the radar screen. This one pertained to having to hit the return from ad button in the callbook window for QRZ. This is somewhat tedious when your running a bunch of Q's....that extra keystroke consumes time, and if I forget its just more wasted keystrokes and time.

Thanks for listening!! de Brad N8GLS

I have the subscription but it doesn't work either, see post #5. There is no bio at all, its blank. The only thing showing in the left callbook window is name, call and country. No address, no grid, no county, no coordinates.....pretty much useless.

Attached are snippets of the callbook window with the subscription service enabled and the standard qrz "return from ad" window.

Any way to fix the subscription window ??

Thanks, de Brad, N8GLS

Tnx Dennis,

A stupid question, maybe, but......what level of "QRZ Subscriber" does one need to be ??
I have the basic subscription which gives me unlimited look-ups and zero advertising when logged in, but there is an XML level, apparently touted as "guaranteed to work with all logging software or your money back". I believe it also supports uploading to QRZ like LoTW, but don't really know. Is the XML level what's needed for the QRZ Subscription to work in LOGic??

Brad, N8GLS

Ha.....had a hunch, proves the only stupid question is the one not asked...sorry it took me so long !!

Ok, so gave Fred some money for a decent dinner....hihi.

Maybe i'm doing something wrong but the subscription version is far worse to deal with than the non-subscription.

The upper callbook window displays all the station's info exactly the same as the non-subscription (except for the email addr).

The callbook web display doesn't display anything except a QRZ.com clickable icon, which when clicked on, launches a whole new IE window that takes me to qrz.com and displays the stations webpage. But performing another look-up requires you to close that window and then re-click the qrz.com icon all over again after the search is complete, i.e., the webpage doesn't follow the search look-up and has to be repeated for each and every search. The non-subscription displays the full webpage in the callbook window and follows whatever call I'm looking up without launching any other windows.....its all self contained in the callbook window.

Lastly the original "logging qso then up arrow locks in callbook screen" locks up the same way with the subscription version until you click Return from Ad.

I'm actually back using the non-subscription version and will avoid the up arrow in the logform window. The subscription version may be great for just looking at the upper callbook window info, but not having a "browser" in the callbook window that can follow the searches your doing is far to inefficient to be effective for me.

Brad, N8GLS

The way the callbook window works if a non-subscriber is ideal. The callbook browser is a winner, and being able to have it display the QRZ webpage as well as track with any callsign searched is, well, "Too Cool for the Room"!!! All this neat stuff happens within that window, no other windows, mouse clicks or navigation is required....its just the most efficient and actually genius on your part that it works this way.

The subscription version doesn't do this at all, you have to mouse click to do any search after the first and they subsequently launch all these windows clutering up my already stuffed screen, unless I close the first one, then, and again, mosuue click the QRZ.com to display the webpage for each and every lookup. So if I'm trying to work a contest (and trying to work it in SO2R mode) I don't have any screen area left, but even ignoring that, having to navigate and click through this is tedious to say the least. The non-subscription version is far superior.

See attached screen shots. The non-subscription.jpg shows the very nice and compact callbook window on the lower right with the callbook web browser displaying the W1AW QRZ webpage....nice !!!

The subscription.jpg shows the very large and screen consuming IE window right in the middle of my LOGic screen blocking everything, and it took a mouse click on the QRZ.com icon in the callbook browser window to even get that.....and every search will launch another IE window, and another......not so nice!!!!

So, yes, PLEASE make the subscription version look and function the same as the non-subscription version.

A million thanks for that !!

Forgot:
Grid square is from zip and not from selected Callbook. i.e. only QRZ enabled, all other disabled and grid square doesn't match QRZ database.
Can't view grid square map on QRZ (i.e. GridMapper V.3) (works in Browser but not Logic Callbook window)

Sorry if I am making a mess of Brads posting.
