Jim, In addition to what Mike and Paul said:
If you want more selection choices and/or possibly more fields filled into DX4WIN from LOTW, you might want to try K1MU's site at https://www.rickmurphy.net/lotwquery.htm. It shows a full screen of parameters you can fill in to narrow what it downloads for you (you can just hit SUBMIT if you like). It will also create a lowreport.adi (or lotwreport (x).adi) file in your default download area. Once you run the query and a lotwreport.adi file is created, I would suggest creating a NEW .DXL file (with a unique name) in DX4WIN and import the lotwreport.adi file into it. At any time, you can click File -> Info to get a summary of information about your log (Number of QSOs, number of comments,etc). In case you haven't discovered it yet, DX4WIN has a very cool "filter" feature. When you are in the QSO window hit <F8>. A screen like the QSO screen will appear with no data filled in. For instance if you wanted to find all QSOs in AK, simply enter "AK" (no quotes) in the state field and hit <enter>. You can PgDn or PgUP to go through the selected QSOs. If you want to see if you worked a certain call before, hit F8 and enter the call in question, then hit <enter>. I have made a spreadsheet that shows what fields may be in the downloaded lotwreport.adi file depending on which of the 4 boxes you check on the K1MU screen. If you (or anyone) want a copy of the spreadsheet, send me an email (offline) and I'll send it to you as an attachment (if I can get it past the restrictions with email attachments). 73, Lee N7NU > On 11/05/2022 12:04 PM Jim Pyle <jpyle...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > FYI, I'm a new user trying to get DX4WIN up and running.
