Hi Alan, I think there are several different issues here:
> I just completed the IOTA contest last weekend and it made me think of > tracking my IOTA credits in DX4WIN. I presently have 394 IOTA's confirmed. > (They did a great job of card checking at Visalia last April). NONE of these > IOTA's show confirmed in the AWARDS section of my DX4WIN log window. What do you mean by "the AWARDS section of my DX4WIN log window"? Do you mean the award flags at the bottom of the QSO (log entry) window? Those flags will get set if you peform a DX4WIN submission for the IOTA award. When your application is returned, you can then change the IOTA flag(s) from Submitted to Checked (via the Report menu) > Something I don't understand that I am sure I am missing is how to enter my > IOTA data from the IOTA website into DX4WIN. I do not see any ADIF file > download to output to DX4WIN. They do provide a Excel CSV file but I don't > know how to download it into DX4WIN. There is no way to do so. Either do the IOTA submission through DX4WIN (see above), or manipulate the award flags by hand. > In reviewing the app note, I also decided it would be a good thing to enter > all my DXCC credits to DX4WIN. I come under the category you mentioned > under: " If you already have ARRL DXCC credits, but none of them are tracked > in DX4WIN, then start here instead" "I already have DXCC Award credits, but > have never tracked them in DX4WIN. What do I do?" You want to use the "Compare LoTW Credits to DX4WIN" program (something like that) found at http://dx4win.ad1c.us/ (I can not get to this site from work). Then you can figure out how to resolve the differences. It's all described on that page. > What is the DXCC QSL Download file on the LOTW webpage? Mine has the heading > of: > "ARRL Logbook of the World DXCC QSL Card Report" Log into ARRL LoTW site. Click on Awards box near the top. Click on "Select DXCC Award Account" on the left. Click on "DXCC QSL Download" on the left to generate the ADIF file you showed in your message. -- 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
