[Dx4win] export a submission to ADIF?
I would like to attempt an online DXCC submission using the import function that ARRL says can be used. They only accept ADIF format for this process. Can anyone tell me how to export a submission report to ADIF in DX4WIN so I can do this ?? 73, Brad - N8SNM __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Dx4win] export a submission to ADIF?
Use LOTW Export to LOTW from the QSO window, then sign the resulting ADIF file with TQSL. Couldn't be easier - I just did it this morning with 2 QSOs, to help a guy who just finished his triple play. 73, Pete N4ZR The World Contest Station Database, updated daily at www.conteststations.com The Reverse Beacon Network at http://reversebeacon.net, blog at reversebeacon.blogspot.com, spots at telnet.reversebeacon.net, port 7000 and arcluster.reversebeacon.net, port 7000 On 5/6/2012 2:18 PM, B.

Re: [Dx4win] export a submission to ADIF?
Brad, I'm not sure the way Pete is suggesting will work. I just did it a couple of weeks ago, and here is how I did it: 1. Go to Reports, Awards, and uncheck Lotw under the Confirmation box in the upper left. This ensures that you will only be submitting confirmations which have been confirmed via a card. 2. Click on Reports, Award flags and then select DXCC Mixed in the upper box and Clear Submitted in the Action box and then click on the Change button. Next select DXCC band in the upper box, Clear Submitted and Change. Finally, select DXCC mode in the upper box, Clear Submitted and Change. This clears out all QSOs that you might have already marked for Submission. This step is a precaution to ensure that you did not run Submission before with the LOTW button selected as outlined in Step 1. 3. Click on Reports and under Report / Action, select Submission. This will mark all cards eligible for DXCC credit for Submission and create a report that you can view. You should right click and print the report. It would be great if Paul would allow the user to right click on this report and create an ADIF file for submission to the ARRL. Unfortunately, you cannot create the ADIF file at this point. So save the report that you just printed out and move on to Step 4. 4. Go back to the main QSO entry screen and press F5 several times until the Award boxes appear at the bottom of the window. Then hit F8 and click on the Mixed box under DXCC and select S (for submission). Then click on File in the upper left on DX4WIN and select Import/Export. Select ADIF and then File again in the smaller window and Export. It should prompt you with a warning that you are running a Filter, say yes that you want to export using the filter. Name the file something like yourcall mixed. You have just created an ADIF file for all QSOs eligible for DXCC Mixed credit. You have to repeat this process two more times -- after doing a F8 fileter for DXCC Band and then a filter for DXCC Mode. You should end up with three ADIF files named yourcall mixed, yourcall band and yourcall mode. Remember where you saved these ADIF files. 5. Finally, go to the ARRL website and log into the online DXCC submission page. I can't remember the exact navigation within the submission pages, but in essence you are simply going to import the three ADIF files one at a time. The DXCC online form allows you to import multiple ADIF files into the form. Very easy. When you get done, you should click on the View Submission button and compare all the listed QSOs in this report to the DX4WIN Submission report that you printed out in Step 3. When I did this, my online report matched the DXCC Submission report exactly. I then merely had to sort my cards to appear in the order as presented in the online submission form and then complete the submission. I took all of my cards to my local DXCC card checker. This process is a bit complicated and requires some advanced knowledge of DX4WIN. Paul could make this whole process a snap by allowing users to create an ADIF file directly from the Submission report once it is generated. I hope this helps. Good luck.

Re: [Dx4win] export a submission to ADIF?
Thanks Pete but that's not what I'm referring to. I've done many LOTW submissions and it works fine. What I'm talking about is a submission for cards ONLY. The new online submission to arrl allows one to import a list for submission if it is in ADIF format. I would like to be able to try this but all I can do is create a CSV file of the submission which is far from ADIF.

Re: [Dx4win] export a submission to ADIF?
Thanks Dave, Seems like quite a dance but I'll give it a go. It's a new thing with arrl so maybe Paul will be able to come up with an export function for the card submissions online sometime in the near future. 73, Brad - N8SNM On 5/6/2012 4:18 PM, N4QS wrote: Brad, I'm not sure the way Pete is suggesting will work.

Brad, see this reflector post: http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/dx4win/2012-April/018340.html What it doesn't say is that *before* doing the submission (assuming you're using some form of Version 8), File | Awards and in the Confirmation box on the DXCC tab, uncheck LoTW. This ensures that only paper QSLs are submitted. The application server allows you to upload multiple ADIF files for a single DXCC submission. -- Jim Reisert AD1C, jjreis...@alum.mit.edu, http://www.ad1c.us __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
