[LOGic] Logic 9

... my education is important to me, Jim.

You scare the hell out of me, and probably many others, when you put such
things on the list.  I keep thinking - what have I missed, what does Jim
know I don't?

If your log is on LOTW, it is a moot point now, I agree.

You must have run some form of tool to make those changes to your log QSOs.

LOGic treats you log as sacred, after you log a QSO.  Each QSO contains
everything DXCC, Prefix, etc etc - at the time you logged the QSO.

When you run a report only what is in your LOG QSOs gets reported. The
Prefix table is totally ignored.

To actually change what was logged, you have to run a tool, or edit the QSO
yourself.

I think you have misunderstood what was happening.

Educate me.

YU was Yugoslavia before the breakup.
When I updated to ver.9 I found a lot of "old" YU's were assigned to the new

entities.

The particulars escape me at this time and the example was just that, an 
example.

I made a number of corrections to the "new" log and brought my Logic MIXED 
and CW  lists back to actual.

Since my logs are in LOTW the point is moot.

Crikey!

The last thing you want to do when that happens is "edit your log"!

What tool did you run to change the YU to S5 in the QSO in your log?

S5 and YU are still in my Prefix table and in the DXCC list.

If you update the Prefix table, the log does not change.  Unless YOU load a
new DXCC award list, it too does not change.

What is in your log reflects the data from the old Prefix table, and if you
believe that is correct - why are you editing it.

Please enlighten me.  How did that happen - YUs become S5s?

I agree...
When I updated to Logic 9 many DXCC countries were changed ( i.e. old YU's
became S5's...)
I spent many hours editing my log and still have errors.

As a result, the DXCC mode and band  totals in my log are suspect and I rely

on LOTW to tally my progress.

Caution...

I was telling George that my DXCC and prefix databases have evolved over the
last decade or two (since Logic4). Since about Logic 7, all my updates have
been manual, based on information I obtained about new entities,
DXpeditions, etc. I think, but do not know for sure, my databases are about
98% current and accurate.

However: Some years back, I downloaded and installed (or imported?) one of
Dennis' updates, and to my horror, found that I had actually DELETED a
number of my manual entries and that my Awards Progress had actually gotten
worse! From that point I was never sure which database was the most current.
It all comes down to what is the most current database at what point in
time?

I notice that the link Peter provides is about a year old...I'm tempted to
import it, but am also reluctant to import "what ain't broke".

How does one assure that this type of update is positive and not
destructive?

I am still using LOGic 8 and I am glad to see that this reflector is still
alive and well. We continue to have about 300 members subscribed. The
problems in the last year or so seem to have been minimal and the messages
few.

I have not been in the best of heath and my radio activity has been way
down, but now that I am on the rebound, I have spent the last couple of
weeks catching up on all my QSLing and all my cards for K3GV/VY2 have been
sent direct to those who requested them with return envelopes and the rest
are ready to go out thru the bureau.

What I am in need of is an updated file for all countries especially those
that have been added to the DXCC list. Does anyone have an updated list they
would be willing to share?
