Pathfinder/QRZ Problem


 

I'm running DXKeeper 8.1.5, Pathfinder 4.5.6. I've updated the QRZ URL in Pathfinder "Config" and the QRZ button per earlier posts and AA7BQ's QRZ Website Link Policy Update. When accessing QRZ via DXKeeper and Pathfinder, the information posted in DXKeeper is incomplete, inconsistent and never entirely correct. When I inspect the Pathfinder Error Log text, I can see extra random characters added to the QRZ response which DXKeeper is misinterpreting. For example, when using Pathfinder to search on my callsign-KJ4WD, the error log contains the following:

01-Sep-2009 21:48:49 > Result = <callsign>KJ4WD<name>CARL J PONTO<addr1>e5de E96F314F80DC52 ae96f314f80dc52<addr2>5116 BEAVER CREEK RD<country>NEW HILL, NC 27562<grid>FM05mq<state>North Carolina<county>Chatham

As a result, DXKeeper displayed my name correctly but displayed "Beaver Creek" as my QTH. Note the random data in the <addr1> field. If it would be helpful in diagnosing this problem, I can send the Pathfinder Error Log file via email. 73
