Re: [Dx4win] Unique calls
Thanks Jim, Not a one click solution but it gets the job done. Might add. The txt file you create in step 2 is just that a txt file so you can read it and see the calls. Of course you could just do step 1 and 2 then bring the txt file into a spread sheet or you favourite txt editor to read and count the calls and not interfere with the master file in DX4WIN, but doing all 4 steps gets the answer of how many unique calls are in your log or selection from within DX4WIN itself. 73 John ZL1BYZ. -Original Message- From: Jim Reisert AD1C [mailto:jjreis...@alum.mit.edu] Sent: Sunday, 14 June 2020 8:50 a.m. To: John Shaw Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Unique calls John, I think you win the prize for this one.

Re: [Dx4win] Unique calls
David - I have no interest in defending my reply to Cesar. What I wrote works to find every JA (regardless of prefix) worked on 80m. 73, John K9EL On Jun 13, 2020, at 11:08 AM, David Kozinn, K2DBK wrote: Cesar was asking about unique calls, what you've suggested would give you all JA calls.
