How it works, as I remember:

first DXCC credit for that country.
  - DX4WIN credits it for mixed ONLY. (or it has in the past)  
However, once a card is submitted to ARRL for DXCC credit, the QSO,
date/time, band, mode are all recorded, and it is available for credit
for any award.  It does not need to be resubmitted.  So, the DX4WIN
submission for these (i.e., submission where there is no existing band or
mode submission already done) should be upcated to indicate it is now
submitted for those awards, even if you're not submitting for that
particular award at the same time and may do so in the future. 
Otherwise, cards are being submitted (and charged for by the ARRL) for
band/modes already credited.  

What I don't know is whether this has been corrected in DX4WIN or not. 
Whether or not you ever plan to submit for a RTTY DXCC, if you've worked
P5 on RTTY only (like me - brag, brag), then I want it to credit both
RTTY, and the band as well as being for "mixed" credit.  Makes sense to
me, anyway!  (Without this fix, I must remember to go through all my
submissions and check to see if they are a new band/mode and manually

the same P5 card for another endosement.)  Sorry, I didn't lay that out

Te best way for mixed submission (until Paul makes this more automated) is
this.

1)File>Preferences> QSO  check Upload conf
2)File>Preferences>DXCC check Mixed, mode, band or something less if you
prefer
3)file and save changes and exit
4)Reports>dxcc>submission (all your electronic cards)
5)File>Preferences> QSO  check Card or Upload conf
6)file and save changes and exit

8)F8(search) with cnfm=y and dxcc=subm
9)right click in logbook window(if you have not it... window>logbook) and

[Dx4win] DXCC Submission question about LOTW and paper QSL's

2005-05-09 Thread Duane A Calvin
I've been doing LOTW now for several months, but have not submitted any
of the QSL's there for awards.  Meanwhile, I have about 100 cards that I
can submit for endorsements including a few new countries.  I usually
take my cards to Ham-Com in Dallas during June for QSL checking there. 
However, now my questions begin, and I'm hoping some of you have been
through this already to know how well DX4WIN works in this regard (mixed
QSLing).  My questions are:

1.  Does DX4WIN have a way of submitting LOTW QSO's like it does for
paper cards?  I don't see one.
2.  How can I be sure that cards I take with me don't have a QSL already
in LOTW (maybe not for that QSO, but for that country/band/mode?)
3.  Has anyone done much with this mixed QSL confirmation yet?  
4.  Has Paul fixed the problem where a new country card submitted gets
automatically counted for both band and mode, not just for the mixed
award yet?

Anything I've forgotten that will bite me?  Submitting QSL's and
reconciling the results are some of the most fun I have every year!  Ha,
ha!

Can you please explain more about this?  DX4WIN will submit any 
confirmation towards any band/mode that helps your DXCC totals 
towards those particular band/mode awards.  Are you saying DX4WIN 
doesn't do this, or that you want DX4WIN to *not* do this?

In your 6.02 directory - probably C:\Program Files\dx4w602\ - you
should have a file called "NF4A.key". Copy that to the 6.04 directory
(c:\Program Files\dx4w604) and you should be all set.

If you can find the .REP files, then you can delete them.  Probably in your

[Dx4win] Notes For This Call Oddities

2005-05-09 Thread Dick Flanagan
DX4WIN 6.04:

I have recently noted that some of my Notes For This Call fields are being 
modified without any input from me.

For example, on one QSO I put the Op's name in the field and somehow "Juan" 
has now become "Juan/Juan."

If that isn't interesting enough, I have three QSOs from one particular 
station where the Notes For This Call field now contains 
"Yul/Yul/Yul/Yul."  (I guarantee you that I only entered the first Yul.)

Some DX4WIN operation is causing this and I would like to locate it before 
these fields start to look really ugly.

Any ideas?
