Re: [Dx4win] DXCC Color Codes (revised )
Just a note of thanks to Ian, G4IIY and Jim, AD1C for their suggestions on how to solve my DX4WIN problem that I have previously posted. It was my lack of properly setting up DX4WIN menu options and QSO inputs.

Re: [Dx4win] DXCC Color Codes (revised )
TNX Ian. I will try your suggestion and see what happens. Between you and Jim, AD1C I think I probably can rectify my problem. Your advices were very valuable. I will post my results.

I suggest that you go into LOTW and use the Download Report to produce an ADIF file with all your LOTW matches. In the 'QSLs Received Since' box, put the date of your earliest QSO. Save the ADIF file somewhere safe. Then in DX4WIN, use the LOTW menu to 'Confirm LOTW using ADIF file' option. Find the file that you have just downloaded from LOTW and DX4Win will do the matching. 73, Ian G4iiY From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net on behalf of Mike Parnin via DX4WIN Sent: 20 July 2021 18:59 To: Jim Reisert AD1C Cc: DX4WIN Reflector Subject: Re: [Dx4win] DXCC Color Codes (revised ) You know I did not !
