Hello,
we had no problems like described at DF0CG/DR1A in CQWW-SSB, but in
Multi/Multi.
12.000QSOs on 12 PCs were running well....somebody switched off the log sync
on the second 20m- PC and on sunday evening one OP gabbed, that the second
PC lost 3 QSOs....5min after activating the log sync everything was ok...on
all PCs the same QSOs,points,score,etc...
Sometimes during the contest I tought, the PCs was running a little bit
slow, not like a Pentium IV 3GHz without AntiVirus, only running WT and
1-3,4? InternetExplorer, HamCap, DX-Atlas...no problems before....but during
the contest nobody reported to me that WT is running slow!
We only had recognized one week before the contest, when we were setting up
the station, that on alle PCs were running the same Win-Test(3.14), but they
don´t show same spots in the Announcement-Window and Bandmap...we noticed
this, because of 15m, 20m, 40m and 80m are running now with 2 Transceivers
with two Win-Test PCs.
The only solution is to remove Win-Test and install Win-Test again.
BTW....when doing this, it is importent to copy the WT-Registry-Key to the
clipboard, then remove WT and install it again, so you can use the
Registry-Key from the clipboard and don´t have to get the key from the
website via eMail.
I don´t know why the PCs show different spots, the PC-setup is from Jan/Feb
2007 with WinXP.
To remove and install WT again, takes only 1-2min...it is no big problem,
really!!!
A very good software and a very good support!!!
Many Thanks!!!!!

same problem with solve down @T93J
after 6000 QSO´s one of PC was very very slow
try to rebut few times but this helped just for some time
this was the PC which was conected via internet (256MB upload/download
wireless) to DXC
and distribute spots to other PC´s in network!
network synconiosation was enabled but we had on all 3 PC´s other nummbers
of QSO´s
all PC used Win XP SP2 and wintest 3.17
and zone guesing did´t work propertly (same like @9A1P)

Hi,
same problem with WT slow down we had also on one PC (RUN) ... after
disconecting that
PC from local LAN WT worked fast.
I noticed that PC was slow at the beggining of the contest.
At the end 6800 qso in our log...
We used WT 3.17 with 3xFT1000MP... also QSX on 7MHz didnt worked when
grabbing spots. (saw that is now solved).
Zone guessing was wrong, we used CTY.DAT because this one was only
updated by AD1C, CTY_mod files where old from August. We used auto zone
guessing with CQWW.DTB updated from the last year cqww ssb contest logs, if
you type K or W (1st letter) automaticaly WT put zone 5, when we type full
call which was in cqww.dtb zone was changed correct.
If possible to change auto zone guessing for USA calls only when full
prefix is typed... "K1, K2; K3 etc" will be much better and guess the zone
for USA calls from the number in the prefix.
Thanks to WT team ... for super software... hope next year we will kick
FY5KE ;))))

Hi all,
in 2007 CQWW it was the first time we used WT at IR4X, and
finally no
disconnection on the local network.
Congrats to all developers particularly to Olivier F5MZN and F5FVY. We
really like this software.
Only one problem on Saturday evening when we got around 6000 qsos in
log.
The PCs on the 2 running stations
become very slow with problems moving cursor and entry characters.
Of course the PCL traffic was very heavvy. Also the PC dedicated to
time
sync and Packet connection become very slow.
The only solutions was to avoid the inbound spotting traffic from PCL
using
the Advanced setup network.
It was of course an immediate solutions but we can't leave the running
PC-STN without packet announcements for future contests.
As it was the first time we were using WT I leaved the default
settings for
the network, but I saw a detailed Advanced Setup Network. Probably we
have
to use this setup to better configure our network.
Probably lot of you have just used these advanced setting so do you
have any
suggestions?
Here is our PC setup:
PC are all Pentium III or IV with at least 256 Mb RAM OS Windows2000
SP4
2 PCs on Run1 (one on the running station + one on the support
station)
2 PCs on Run2 (idem)
1 PCs on Mult1
1 PC on Mult2
1 PC used as Monitor or silent backup
1 PC is dedicated to PCL with TNC2 and time sync (P III 256Mb )
Network HUB is only 10 Mb.
No RFI on the network.
Sync logs on the network was disable for all PCs.
We normally use the following windows RADIO1, STATUS, Packet
announcements,
Partial check, N+1, Exchange guessing.
All PC are connect to a radio and frequency is showed in STATUS.
Is there any possibility to filter spots on the PC dedicated to PCL
and to
pass on the network only multipliers or new contacts?
Any others suggestions for the network setup? OR should I upgrade my
hardware ?
POST CONTEST
I saw some QSOs out of order in time and this affects the 8 band
change
controls. Is there any possibility to reorder QSOs by time?
Thanks in advance for all the supports.
