Band-Map 60m-Band

Hi Petr,

i have the impression that no dx-cluster spots from the 60m band appear in the band map.

Is my impression correct, or am I doing something wrong?
For the DX cluster settings, 5MHz is selected.

Re: Band-Map 60m-Band

Hi Wolfgang,

I just tried it and it worked. Spot from 60m band appeard in the bandmap. The bandmap can have filter defined, could you check if you have any filter in bandmap, please? Thanks!

Hi Petr,

Hi Petr,

my bandmap-filter is set to "Show all". In the DXCluster I use "telnet.reversebeacon.net".

This morning I used the CW-keying function with a test loop for the RBN to check the bandmap spots in 60m-band and 30m-band.

In 30m-band the spot of my call was seen in the DXCluster window and in the bandmap window. In 60m-band, however, only in the DXCluster window.

Any other idea?

Re: Hi Petr,

Hi Wolfgang,

thank you for the screenshot! Maybe the problem is with something else. For every item from the cluster, cqrlog tries to guess mode from a spotted frequency. Please go to Preferences -> Bandmap and disable Show only active mode option. Let me know if it helped. Thanks!

Hi Petr,

Hi Petr,

Yes! After disabeling "Show only active mode" the bandmap works well for 60m-band.
Thank you for your efforts.

Re: Hi Petr,

Great news!

It was only a temporary fix. Now go to Preferences -> Bands and click to Frequencies button. New window appears. Find 60M band and fix the CW, RTTY and SSB frequencies. On 60M band, we can work only on a few frequencies ("channels") and it's impossible to set CQRLOG correctly :(.

Hi Petr,

Hi Petr,

i think I have made a mistake here with the frequency-range settings.

You can set the frequency ranges in the band settings.

Begin and End, i understand.

But what is entered in the fields CW, RTTY and SSB?
The start-frequency of the mode range or the end-frequency?

What does RX offset and TX offset mean?
