    Hi Peter

    My guess is that the server was busy doing the “overnight” (UK-time) magic…

    The simple solution is to upload the remaining QSOs using a slightly renamed log-file

    Thanks for posting… it seems there is a concerted effort to draw this to our attention, given the large number of emails, messages etc received.

    I’ve checked, and the references listed were created in late 2014… so it has taken people nearly 10 years to spot.

    However, given that WWFF operates in accordance with ITU principles, these references should not have been approved, and as such have been removed (retrospectively)

    @Paul – the upload checks catch obvious errors in the ADIF, but cannot trap (eg) wrong date(s), wrong activated reference(s), wrong station/operator callsign(s)…

    I fully accept that a Log Manager ius unlikely to detect the various wrong bands, wrong hunter references, wrong hunter callsigns…

    Fundamentally, activators need to be more careful in their logging!

    I’m sorry you feel that way, KI6BTY…

    On the other hand, a quick look in the Log Corrections sub-forum will show the number of errors that get uploaded after being checked by the Log Manager.

    Various improvements are on the drawing board, but are mostly constrained by the simple fact that I don’t have the spare time, and other volunteers are few (while acknowledging the few that are assisting!).

    Quite simply, the quality of logs *after being checked by National Coordinators* is bad enough…

    in reply to: Year 2010 HBFF Top Operators: Error Found #13902

    Hi Augusto

    Logsearch simply processes the data it has… if there are activations showing the wrong year, that suggests that the QSO date is incorrect…

    Perhaps HB9CBR can look at his “2010” activations and tell us when they actually were?

    Please advise the required changes… it’s easier than deleting, especially when Hunters have already claimed the point

    Please confirm: ZL7E was the StationCall, and VK5PAS the Operator ?

    Thanks Gerald…

    Sometimes things are so obvious, you see right through them -especially when it was you writing it in the first place.

    This has now been fixed 🙂

    Hi Rahul

    For reasons I don’t understand, the profile checks were not passing for you…

    So I’ve fixed it for you…

    What do you find “convoluted”?

    How would you suggest we improve it?

    Volunteers to do (rather than just whinge) are welcome…

    Hi David

    There *should* be no difference between the “global” count and the “national” count… the only time there may be a discrepancy is if there is “national-only” reference – and there are none for VKFF

    Looking at your stats, you have 891 for WWFF-H…
    ZLFF x 2
    VKFF x 889 – of which 5 are deleted (so showing 884)

    The 891 *should* be 886 – I’ll have to look and see why that it.

    The topic of whether a deleted park counts or doesn’t count is a perennial discussion…
