Hi Jim, Strangely enough I did look on your web page this morning to see if you had details. The help file on all this is very sketchy indeed... OK well I am half way there as I did the first part right, so I'll continue as suggested. Yes I did back everything up too! If it all works ok then I'll do all my other calls, I will let you know how I get on with it. BTW I have just found that I am missing some 9S4 (Saar) calls in my "Deleted DXCC list I will check on this and report back to you.

Again, this is not the correct way. Download the lotwreport.adi file from ARRL. Import it into your DX4WIN log as an ADIF file. Before starting the import, there is a dialogue box "Options for Duplicate QSOs". Choose "Imported QSO sets Upload Confirmed Flag". This will set the LoTW Confirmed flags in your logbook only, without changing any other data. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.com PGP Fingerprint: D8E2 3D78 339F A7F1 8C13 1193 B5D1 4FB6 79D1 70DC From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon May 24 10:28:20 2004 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Jim Reisert AD1C) Date: Mon May 24 10:31:42 2004 Subject: [Dx4win] Latest country file changes (not released yet) Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Folks, I didn't get a new country file released this weekend.

Unlike many of you I have been using DX4WIN for many years and since V.3 I think, and still not have had any problems, just did the upgrade last evening and like always it took me max. 15 min to have the new version running, actually I have both on the PC on different names...... I advise you to read the help files and the many helpfully sites to upgrades like www.ad1c.com You should be glad that the DX4WIN team is doing a great job.
