I get this all the time. With 140,000 QSOs in the log from here in 5 years you can imagine my buro stacks. It's easy to deal with if you have the window for previous QSOs open. There you can see if the station has a CW/20m QSL already, in which case I ditch the card. I have 10,000 cards printed at a time to get the best price and it saves a lot of cards if you send confirmation of all QSOs made with him/her even if you only get a card for say, one 20m QSO. If there is a lot of QSOs I usually print directly to the card where I can fit 7 QSOs nicely. DX4WIN saves me a lot of effort and cards this way and it's fast too. BTW if the card comes to me directly I will still send a card for the same QSO again, just in case he lost the first one.

Contesting has opened the doors for a major headache for me in the amount of qsl 's that I receive. I am making about 15K qso's / year in contests and I am getting about 50% sending me a card for each of those contacts. This is not an insignificant amount of resources for me. I don't mind sending a card out for someone who needs Alabama or Marengo Co, but how many times do you need a card from me for 10 mtr SSB contest qso's. I am not going to mention the station/country that has the record for getting the most of my cards on a single band/mode. I stumbled on to this one by accident: 11 cards. My question: is there any way to get DX4WIN to show me the amount of cards/per station/per band/ per mode. I will no longer send a card for third ( two already sent according to log) or more qso's/band/mode regardless of cards sent to me unless direct with SASE. I would like to create a list (blacklist if you please) of these stations to shorten my response time to the ones who really need it. I guess you could call it a qsl filter.. I really would like an answer!
