Nothing against Joe and not the app he made, as it works as advertised, but the process is just a huge pain in the butt! I find a card that shouldn't have been in the submission after checking 30 cards and checking them in the list and I have to go back to edit cards and remove that one and enter the one I want. Guess what? Go back to submit and have to start ALL over again. Why??? Why not save where I was so I can come back. My total upload is 580+ cards and I am not sending that many in at once. I guess I just check off what I have. Find the errors. Submit what isn't in error. After submission, fix that error. Go back and submit some more find more errors submit fix...AAAHHHHHH
Again, this is not Joe's programs fault and, as a human, I make mistakes but having to start all over from the beginning with a website that takes minutes to load each page is ridiculous. OK...Sorry...I had to vent. 73, Tim Herrick, KQ8M Charter Member North Coast Contesters k...@kq8m.com AR-Cluster V6 kq8m.no-ip.org User Ports: 23, 7373 with local skimmer, 7374 without local skimmer Server Ports: V6 3607, V4 Active 3605, V4 Passive 3606 -----Original Message----- From: dxbase-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dxbase-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Gary AL9A Sent: Monday, April 09, 2012 4:35 PM To: dxbase@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Dxbase] Online DXCC website appears OK now -- Joe's ADI file maker is now available agn Being a victim of my own inertia I am still running DXB2006 and thus cannot use Joe's ongoing development efforts for 2007 users. However, I wanted to report my success with 2006 in generating a suitable aidf file for submission to the Online DXCC Application process I knew from running Output/Awards/DXCC that I had some Phone cards in the log that were not yet included in previous DXCC submissions, both card and LOTW. I did this by running Output/Awards/DXCC Award Submission with the following checked: Phone, QSO Log, Cards only, Exclude Past Submissions, Select Marked QSO Records and Select Deleted Countries. When run this tool indicated I had 31 QSO records flagged that met the selection parameters. I printed the resulting worksheet and dug into my QSL card boxes to find the cards in question. In this process I found two cards that should not have been selected because they were already confirmed via LOTW and the Select fields had not been cleared in DXB as they should have been. Now to produce an adif that contained the 29 cards. I used the Selection Wizard to Output an ADIF File based on the following QSO filters: Mode=Phone, Confirm=Card, Select=DXCC. That produced the file containing the 29 cards I wanted. I then went to the ARRL Online DXCC Application web site and went through the process. When I got to the upload an adif file step it went without a hitch at all and the resulting DXCC Record Sheet was in the correct order matching the adif file. Sure saves a lot of typing and typos! My only concern with the process is that after printing out the DXCC Record Sheet one of the cards, DX0K for Spratly Is., is printed in bold italics. None of the others printed this way and it didn't show that way in the online record sheet. Not sure if this indicates a problem for this card or not. I've emailed my local card checker and will set up a drop off of my paper work and cards shortly. Just wanted to let the group know that it is possible to upload the card info even if you are running a non-2007 version of DXB. 73, Gary AL9A ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe WA6AXE" <wa6...@hotmail.com> To: <dxbase@mailman.qth.net>; <dxb...@yahoogroups.com> Sent: April 06, 2012 8:36 AM Subject: [Dxbase] Online DXCC website appears OK now -- Joe's ADI file maker is now available agn > > ALL DXbase2007 users: > > Now that the ARRL's "Online DXCC" website appears to have been > reprogrammed > so that OUR QSOs will end up in the final Record Sheet - in the exact same > ORDER that we sent > it up to the website at the Import ADIF tab ... > > The LINK (direct) is now again open for anyone to download and use the > 2007dxcconline.exe program (ADI file maker): > > http://www.navycthistory.com/wa6axe/2007dxcconline.html > > > I have been checking the Online DXCC website for a completed UPDATE to the > routine -- and > "just" noted that ALL appears WELL now -- Once you IMPORT your adi file - > and you go to > the Enter QSLs TAB -- scrolldown to the bottom and PRESS the > > > " View All My QSLs " (as a PDF document) > > Button and you should NOW see the listing show the correct ORDER of QSOs - > will match > what you sent up to the website .. > > I can NOT see the FINAL DXCC RECORD SHEET - as I have not gone thru the > full > submission process -- but, since the Enter QSLs tab (webpage) is GOOD > NOW -- I would > sure think that the final sheet is ok too .. > > So - I want to make the 2007dxcconline.exe program available once again > .. this is the > original version -- since my program was OK (from the start) -- just the > ARRL's own website > was causing the problems ... but, now appears GOOD!!! > > Much success to all!! > > 73 Joe wa6axe > > ______________________________________________________________ > Dxbase mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Dxbase@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dxbase@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dxbase@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
