Re: [Dx4win] International Grid Chase
Hello Lee, Guess you're right. You can add the HF bands to VUCC on the Awards window, but no on the Station tab in Preferences and they don't appear in the report. Oh well. Since the award ONLY counts LoTW confirmations, it's easy enough to just track it there. -- 73, Mike Cizek WØVTT From: Lee Hallin [mailto:hall...@lanecc.edu] Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2018 16:54 To: Mike Cizek W0VTT; Lee Hallin; dx4win@mailman.qth.net; Dave Perry N4QS Subject: Re: [Dx4win] International Grid Chase Hi Mike, Doesn't look like you can (or I don't know how to) select any additional bands for the VUCC award. Highest (meter) band available seems to be 6 meters. I have modified a simple program (originally written to track the FFMA) that tracks what calls have credit for which Grids. Currently, it only tracks one call per grid. I am in the process of updating it to keep track of call,mode,date,#QSOs,LoTW Cnfm and LoTW Date for each band/mode combination. If anyone is interested in the program, drop me an email and I'll see about getting you what I have. Currently, it creates a .CSV file that you can import to Excel and manipulate (sort) by what ever way you like. I am currently off the air (antennas clobbered from neighbors tree icing up can falling on them) so I'm not able to do any LoTW updates myself. If you have a file that has been updated from LoTW this year and would like to send it to me, that would make testing easier (I'm dummying up data and that's slow). 73, Lee N7NU >>> "Mike Cizek W0VTT" <mgci...@gmail.com> 1/11/2018 11:38 AM >>> Hello Dave, If you don't chase VUCC, you can use the VUCC award by adding all of the HF bands and setting the start date to 1 Jan 2018. -- 73, Mike Cizek WØVTT -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of n...@vci.net Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2018 13:31 To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] International Grid Chase Is there any way to create a custom award in DX4WIN ver 9.04 to support the International Grid Chase? 73, Dave, N4QS __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net Message delivered to mgci...@gmail.com This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net Message delivered to hall...@lanecc.edu This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

Hello Dave, If you don't chase VUCC, you can use the VUCC award by adding all of the HF bands and setting the start date to 1 Jan 2018. -- 73, Mike Cizek WØVTT -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of n...@vci.net Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2018 13:31 To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] International Grid Chase Is there any way to create a custom award in DX4WIN ver 9.04 to support the International Grid Chase? 73, Dave, N4QS __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net Message delivered to mgci...@gmail.com This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
