G'Day,

An calls work as one should expect. Double check - Run Clean, Restart LOGic, go to the Info window and enter A6 in the Prefix field. A6 should be United Arab Emirates. If not, you need to fix the Prefix Table - it is damaged in some way.

It is easy to damage the Prefix Table. Rather than try to undo the damage, apply the last LOGic update again and tick the box to replace the Prefix Table.

To make changes to the Prefix Table, make a user entry - avoid changing the system entries.

While operating, if you find something you need in the Prefix table, do two things ....

1. Post a topic here to have the system entries updated.
2. Make a USER ENTRY for you to use until the next LOGic system update.

After the next system update, remove your user entry.

If you need further assistance, post the specifics about what prefix you need to change in the Prefix Table and why?

A backup of the Prefix Table is good to have - before you change it. The Prefix table is not part of the "LOGic backup", you need to make a simple copy of the table in the DATA folder. To restore, exit LOGic, copy the Prefix table back to the data folder, run Clean, then restart LOGic.

... you have probably, somehow, corrupted the Prefix Table.

When you installed LOGic, a CLEAN icon was placed on the Start Menu. Exit LOGic, and use this CLEAN icon, to clean-up all the indexes of all the databases that are part of LOGic.

Then re-start LOGic, and re-test your A92GE, Bahrain. You can use the Info form, or simply start a new log entry.

If the DXCC is NOT Bahrain - you have a corrupt Prefix Table.

You can replace the Prefix table by applying/re-applying the latest LOGic 9 update which you can download here on the forum.

a few others






computer is a dell laptop with intel centrino and 4 gigs of ram, a 500 gig hard drive. There is a edgeport 8 attached via USB which then has my rotor, tnc, amp and radio attached via serial ports 1-4. The radio cable is a "y" cable with a SteppIr also attached. The radio is a kenwood ts-950sdx on port 1 (no ic-232, I use a cable I bought from Dennis). The rotor is an orion controled with a blue herron box on port 4. All of this had been stable and working prior to the update.

The version of logic prior to the update was xxx.65, current loaded version is xxx.71

of interest is the prefix table does indeed now work.....

any other info that can help you help me, just ask...

Ray...

funny I didn't have any of those problems prior to installing the update.

So, I took the easy way out and just re-imaged a back-up.

I'm back to the old version of logic with the bad prefix table, but at least I'm back on the air.

I get NO errors with this old version of logic.

I am the only user of this PC and as such am the administrator. Therefore everything is loaded and run as administrator.

Now back to my original question, how can I JUST fix the prefix table without getting right back into the error train?????

I've been running this backwards load for a full day with many entries and interactions between logic, my radio, my rotor and my steppIr controller without a hiccup. I had run this setup for many many months prior to asking my question about the prefix problem. I would think that if there were an inherent problem with the PC, my interfaces or any other variable, it would have made it's self known.

I have logic loaded on a windows 8.1 machine (the one that won't upload to LoTW) and copied the prefix table from it to this laptop and my problem seems to be solved.
