When i enter a callsign and TAB ahead to the next field the time is entered in the Time ON field. But when my QSO is complete and i hit ENTER to log the QSO the time in the Time ON field changes to the then-current time and logs the QSO with the current time, not the time when it started. I have scoured the HELP resources and can't figure out what i am doing wrong. Can anyone advise me how to correct this?

Here's what happens:

1. I open up Logic9 and the log window opens with the last QSO completed the last time i used Logic9.
2. I hit CTL N to clear the logging window so i can enter a station and log a QSO
3. I enter the new stations callsign and TAB to the next field and the TIME ON field auto-fills with the current time
4. I conduct my QSO for however long it lasts and when i am done i hit enter to log the QSO and clear the log window so that i can enter a new callsigh
5. But when i hit ENTER the QSO being conducted gets logged with a NEW TIME ON that is the time when i hit enter.

Sitting there in the "Browse" log in the TIME ON field is the new time.

what i want to do is enter a callsign in a blank log form, TAB to the next field and have the then-current time entered in the TIME ON field, enter data in various fields as i need to as the QSO proceeds, and then when i complete the QSO and hit ENTER to save it the time in the TIME ON field stays the same.

any idea what i am doing wrong. I have been a LOgic user going back to Logic6 and never had this problem, so i must have configured something wrong somewhere.

Thanks!

I went to LOG-SETUP and the button i had checked was "{enter} adds new QSO". I changed to the other option - "{enter} activates new browse window" and the result was the same.

BTW in the setup menu i have checked "Log TIME ON when saving QSO"

When I tried MINI the time that was entered in the TIME ON field was the time when a new QSO was opened up (I use CTL N) but when i put a callsign in the cal field and tabbed ahead the time did not change.

What I had always been able to do until now was to open up a new QSO, place a callsign in the call field, and then have TIME ON entered as the current time when i tabbed out of the callsign field. This was always a GREAT feature, especially in DX pileups, because you often don't work the station you are calling until after 3-5 calls (maybe more) and the way the TIME ON was entered when I tabbed forward out of the callsign field made it possible for me to have the actual time of the QSO, not the time when i started calling the intended station.

Does any of this help?

Thanks!
