[Dx4win] Invalidate QSO
Hello all Before I try this, I would like to know if anyone else has done it successfully. I need to invalidate various QSO in DX4Win (version 8.03) and have read that putting a ! before the callsign in the callsign box will work. Like !XZ5A for example. Anyone has tried ? This is in order to upload my log to Clublog without the callsigns which I know are invamlid for DXCC (but that I want to keep in my log). Thanks 73 Paul F6EXV __ 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
[Dx4win] Award credit
A strange problem! I am loading some old logs into DX4WIN. I find that any QSO before 1st June 1983 does not create any award credits. This is on v7.05.04 - but I find the same effect on old versions of 6.02 and 5.03. But if I load the log into v4.05 all the award credits appear. I tried a test with setting up a new log on v7.05 and just entering one QSO. With a current date, the DXCC credit appears. But if I then progressively change the date back to 1983, the credit disappears when it goes back beyond 1/6/83. Same on v6 and v5 but OK on v4. Anyone else come across this problem?

Re: [Dx4win] Invalidate QSO
Larry I had not thought of that option I did mark those QSOs with I but did not think of filetring on this ! Great idea, and must work ! Will try on my next upload to Clublog ! Many thanks 73 Paul F6EXV Le 18/10/2010 16:37, Larry Gauthier (K8UT) a écrit : Paul, Using a test log file, I attempted to create a QSO with a ! as the first character of a callsign - failed. DX4WIn would not create a record with an invalid callsign. Here is a method that will work: Mark the QSO(s) you do not want: QSO Mark as invalid for awards. Set a filter = -- in the DXCC Mixed field. Notice that the I invalid QSOs are now excluded. File Export using the current filter. Hope this helps, -larry K8UT -- From: F6EXV Paul f6...@wanadoo.fr Sent: Monday, October 18, 2010 7:30 AM To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Invalidate QSO Hello all Before I try this, I would like to know if anyone else has done it successfully.

Re: [Dx4win] Award credit
HI Dennis I know I replied off group; but I have found something strange on this. I created a new log, for this test. I entered a QSO with F5VHY on 20m, for today; then checked the Reports tab, and looked at DXCC Summary - I have France worked of course. I changed the QSO date to 01/01/1983, just to better the date that you gave; and did the same again - I lost my credit for working France! I checked the dates; and you are right- anything before 1st June produces no credits; 2nd June is fine !! I then entered a QSL Y for our imaginary QSO - Voila, as we say; the QSO is shown as confirmed !! This behaviour holds true for 1970's QSO's too; I cannot think that this is intended behaviour !!! But I found a workaround too Dennis - fill in the QSL date; even for a non-QSLled contact; all is well again !! Does anyone know if this has been reported before?? (I am running DX4WIN 8.04) 73 Dave G3NKC -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Dennis Andrews, F5VHY Sent: 18 October 2010 15:00 To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Award credit A strange problem!

Re: [Dx4win] Award credit - Found the problem !!!!
Go into Setup Parameters; Personal; you need to set Worked cutoff and Mailed cutoff to Zero !! Worked Cutoff QSOs worked longer ago than the number of days specified will be marked as 'not worked'. Used to ignore QSOs that are not likely to be ever confirmed because they took place too long ago. The DX Spots Window for example will show the colors as if this QSO did not exist. A value of zero is used to ignore the CutOff and view all QSOs as 'worked' regardless how long ago the QSO took place. Mailed Cutoff Similar as Worked Cutoff, but the QSL date is used instead of the QSO date. QSOs for which a card has been sent longer ago than the number of days specified will be treated as if a card was never sent. This can be used in reports and summary windows and when marking additional QSOs for QSLing. A value of zero is used to ignore the CutOff and view all QSLs that were mailed as 'mailed' regardless how long ago the mailing took place. Mine was set to 1; bet yours was too Dennis! 73 Dave -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Dennis Andrews, F5VHY Sent: 18 October 2010 15:00 To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Award credit A strange problem!

[Dx4win] question
It just occurred to me that I use DX4WIN to upload to LOTW. My contest files are imported into DX4WIN, i.e. JARTS and more contests to come between now and December 31st. I have a bunch of PJ's logged in. Should I still upload everything (including the PJ's) to LOTW or should I make sure that none of the new country QSO's get uploaded?
