Subject: [Dx4win] VUCC totals not accurate

After all these years, I am just starting to focus on VUCC and FFMA awards
for six meters.  For VUCC, my confirmed totals in DX4WIN are about 70 less
that my totals showing on LOTW.  (I have very few grids confirmed via QSL
card.)  When I open the VUCC window, it is also apparent that confirmations
for CW and SSB are not showing as C.  Under Reports, Awards, VUCC tab, I
have all modes selected.  The same thing happens when I run a VUCC report
listing - confirmations for CW and SSB on 6 meters do not show up as
confirmed.

 

For example, for EM09 in Kansas, LOTW shows that grid was confirmed with
AB0S.  When I look up that QSO in DX4WIN, the Confirm LOTW box is set for Y
- so it is marked as confirmed in DX4WIN.  But in the VUCC window, EM09 only
shows a W in the CW and SSB boxes-there should be a C in the CW box.  If I
double click on the 6 at the top, all of my QSOs with EM09 on 6 meters are
shown, and AB0S clearly shows that it was confirmed via LOTW.

 

So why are these CW and SSB confirmations not showing up in the VUCC window
and on the VUCC reports?

Not that I know of.

Maybe in a future release (?), Paul could add a field to the Logbook
window to indicate whether the QSO is with a deleted DXCC entity.  I
realize that doesn't solve your problem today.

I thought there would have been a note here, but no:

https://ad1c.us/dx4win/appnotes/

Go to this URL:https://www.mail-archive.com/dx4win@mailman.qth.net/

Search for "reset windows".  You should be able to find the answer there.

Re: [Dx4win] VUCC totals not accurate

2022-07-30 Thread David Perry, N4QS 
Hi Jim,

Thanks for suggestion.  Yes, I have both QSL and LOTW flags checked.  No matter 
how I set the award flags under the VUCC tab, a confirmed CW contact with AB0S 
in EM09 shows W in the VUCC window and on the VUCC report listing.

Thank you.  73,  Dave, N4QS

Re: [Dx4win] Packet Connection

2022-07-30 Thread Jim Reisert AD1C 
Don't select Local Host.

The list has many bad entries (nodes that no longer exist).

Try W0MU, K2CAN and/or AB5E.  I know they work, I am connected to them now.

Click on the VUCC tab

In the confirmation box in the upper-left, make sure that LoTW is
checked (in addition to QSL).
