[Dx4win] Mode FT4 (MFSK w/submode FT4)
Hello DX4Win users. For some reason my DX4Win does not show any log entries under mode DIG for any FT4 log entries either worked or confirmed. All of my FT8 contacts are properly shown as mode DIG worked or confirmed but FT4 does not. I am entering my FT4 QSO's as mode MFSK (submode FT4) in my log. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Re: [Dx4win] export a submission to ADIF?

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.

[Dx4win] Possible new submission function?
Hello DX4WIN users, I haven't seen anything on this topic so here goes. As I am not a power user of DX4WIN, I might be missing something but I would possibly like to see a new report - submission functionality. Let me see if I can expalin. After uploading qso's to LOTW and downloading a report, I get a number of DXCC LOTW confirmations for band, mode, or perhaps mixed for a new one! Next I do a DXCC submission in DX4WIN and it marks all of the QSO's I have confirmed with the S... great. Now I go to LOTW and make an application to apply the credits to my account towards DXCC or Challenge. After my application for DXCC credits is processed is where my little gripe begins. For example, VU4PB was a new one for me back in March of 2011. I worked VU4PB 5 times on two bands (20 and 17). My first QSO was on 3-19 on 17m CW. This QSO is what LOTW credits my DXCC account as new mixed-band-mode. BUT DX4WIN chose my LAST QSO with VU4PB to mark as SUBMITTED for mixed-band-mode which was on 3-30-2011 20m CW. This isn't a BIG deal but I only do an application once a year or so with ARRL so my number of new credits to apply can be well over 150. Making LOTW credits match DX4WIN can be rather tedious with this many qso's to reconcille. For some reason it seems DX4WIN starts at the most recent qso's that are confirmed and works backwards in time/date as it marks qso's with S. LOTW starts at the oldest qso and works forwards in time/date. I have no problem at all with this for submissions with CARDS but it's kind of a pain in the neck with LOTW confirmed qso's. Anyone else notice this or have an easy work around? If not, I would like to see if Paul can look into trying to see if DX4WIN can mark qso's starting with the oldest and working forward in date/time.

[Dx4win] Possible bug using LoTW
Dear Users; I recently did a upload/download cycle for LoTW and found a possible issue. It seems that for some reason the import ADIF file clears the cnfm flag when an Upl Cnf is set. I chose the 5th option for import which says any QSO with confirmed flag set will set the Upl Cnf flag. It does this BUT it seems that if the Cnfm was previously set (already have a card), it is CLEARED Maybe I don't understand the use/difference but I use the cnfm flag as a card in hand and Upl Cnf for a LoTW credit. This is most needed when applying for WAZ arwards (and others) which do not recognize LoTW credits. Any others experience this? Am I misinterpreting something? Is this an old bug? (I am somewhat new to DX4WIN). Or am I doing something wrong?? BTW, I am still on v7.02.15 Just waiting for the dust to settle b4 I upgrade.
