OK, I'll accept that "Both" for the DXCC award list is not the same as the "Both" in the CFM column. But I still don't understand, if what you say is correct (and it almost always is...), why some records that are in the CFM column as "Card", meaning I have only a card QSL, not LoTW, do NOT appear when I do a "Both" list. If there is a card, should that QSO not appear on the list when run as "Card" as well as "Both"?

George, When I do a DXCC Award output -- I can see that the meaning of BOTH is "not" the CFM colmn's Both -- but indicates that you are asking to use both the Card and also the LoTW .. NOT the Both from the Confirmed column of our logbook.. When I do a card only MIXED - I get a count of 274 -- when I do a Both -- I get 275 -- the extra ONE QSO is the YV0D (which right now is only confirmed via LoTW) .. Hope that this helps! 73 Joe wa6axe George Harlem W1EBI wrote: > While we're on the subject of DXbase oddities, here's another: > > I ran a DXCC award submission list with a check in "Select QSO's from > QSO log--Cards only" plus "Exclude past submissions".
