[LOGic] Lost my CQZ entry field

[Bill VanAlstyne W5WVO]

Mike,

I can't be certain exactly what you did, but there are two things you can
address to remedy the loss:

1) Unlock the log screen and click on the trash can icon. If the field is in
there, just double click on it to restore it to the screen. Don't forget you
will have to do this for both and the entry field and the label.

2) Click on the "little guy" icon in the lower right-hand section of the log
screen, right next to the lock/unlock button. This will open the User
Defined Field Setup dialog. User Field 1 should be linked to CQZ. If this
got changed to NONE somehow (or to SWL -- see below), just restore the link
to CQZ by marking the radio button for USER1 and selecting CQZ from the list
at right.

As regards whewther all your CQZ log data has disappeared -- I'm not
positive, but I don't think so. It should all still be there as USER1. But
don't come after me if I'm wrong!  :-)

One theory as to what might have happened: When you created the SWL field,
you might have forgotten to mark the radio button for an UNUSED user
variable, and overwrote USER1 with SWL instead. LOGic appears to default to
the first entry in the User Defined table when you open it, which is
USER1 -- along whatever it is currently defined as (be default, CQZ).

Hope this helps.
