Hi!
I´ve got programmed a macro as "DX %LastCall %LastQRG IN80EJ <> %LastDXLocator".
In the list the locator has 6 digits (IN80EJ as example) but when I use this macro the
"%LastDXLocator" only use the first 4 digits (IN80 as example).
I don´t know if i have any error.
Thanks in advance,

Well, only the first 4 characters will be send. There was reason, but I can't remember.
I discussed this with a friend who asked for this and we decided 4 characters are quite enough.
Do you want to have all 6 characters?

Hi!
I think if the user use 6 characters for the locator it should send the 6 characters as if the user
use only 4 characters it should be sent the 4 characters.
What about this?

PD: The mode on computation for 6m is working fine!

Okay, I added %LastDXLocator4 and %LastDXLocator6 as variable, so the user has the choice. %LastDXLocator ist still available to remain compatible.
The problem is that I can't upload it yet, because I'm out of the country and have a very limited internet connection only.

Many thanks, and don´t worry because you can´t upload it now. It´s for the next revision, we can wait for it!

Hi again!!!
I´ve been testing the "%LastDXLocator6" but I think there is a little
problem. At least, my computer take the variable "%LastDXLocator6"
as "%LastDXLocator" and then add a "6". I mean if I´ve had a locator
as "IN80ej" it takes it as "IN806".
My macro is:
DX %LastCall %LastQRG IN80EJ <> %LastDXLocator6
TIA

Well, there is a bug and the %LastDXLocator6 variable is useless.

No problem to fix that, but I can't upload it yet. Maybe in the first week ion August.

Hi Tom.
Thanks for resolving the fix. The time is not a problem. I´ll do it by hand. Je je je.
