Jeff wrote: I have 2 questions concerning DX4WIN. I used the reports for DXCC and listed the countries worked. I noticed Kuwait is showing up as not being worked even thought I have a valid QSO in the log. I deleted it and reentered hoping that would fix it but it did not.
The 2nd question is exactly what do I need to do or what can DX4WIN do to help me throughout the DXCC application process. From reading the manual I believe I need to mark all my cards I am going to get check as submitted and them print the list of submitted contacts (hopefully 100). Any more thoughts or corrections? Thanks for your time and patience, Jeff Baker KG4ENR I can't help much on the Kuwait problem - just make sure that the field ValidDX is "Y", and that the correct band and mode in the Preferences DXCC tab are checked off. I recommend that you use DX4WIN's submission capability for your DXCC application. It will automatically choose the newest QSL card you have marked as received for each eligible DXCC entity and create a list. Those QSOs will automatically be marked as Submitted. Right click on the list and you will see Print and File. I choose to file that list as a permanent record and it can be printed from disk. I attach that listing to the DXCC submission form, rather than writing out each line -- perfectly acceptable. When the DXCC listing comes back from the ARRL, it will show which cards have been accepted, and which have not. Then you can use DX4WIN's Reports | Change Award Flags box to change all the Submitted flags to Checked. If some were not accepted, you can manually change them back and set the ValidDX box to "NO", if appropriate, so the card is never resubmitted. Keep it easy! Let the system do the work.
