Sent again with corrections Hi Hi :
Dear All, First of all many thanks to all that assisted me, in particular Jim, I now have it sorted. I had wrongly gone to export data from the main DX4WIN window (you know, where you find preferences - setup parameters)and not the Logbook window. For those thinking of going down the LOTW route I thought I would share the advice given to me: 1. It is necessary, in setup parameters, QSO tab, to have the label "box" set to "Lab + Upl" or just "Upl". 2. From the logbook window, select "Export for LOTW", down load to a secure sub directory and give it a name that means something, (e.g. maybe include date of latest submission?). If you haven't exported before then the number of entries should equal the log size! Upon completion you will be asked "if it can put the date into the UPLOAD DATE field", say yes and all QSO's to be sent to LOTW will be marked accordingly. Thus when you're ready for the next upload, all previously submitted QSO will be ignored. Clever eh?! I found I was ~1300 out, somehow earlier QSO's had not been marked for upload. This can be corrected, on a global basis, by going (from the logbook window), "labels" then "set upload flags". AGAIN I say this is for someone who has not uploaded before! Maybe before exporting to begin with, its worth doing a check to ensure all your entries are correctly marked. Go into your original log. Use F8 to search for "Upl=N" then Filter->Count. This is the number of QSO's to be uploaded. Then search again for "Upl=Y" then Filter->Count. This is the number of QSO's that have already been uploaded. I am now awaiting my Digi Cert from LOTW/ARRL and I am set to be up and running. Again thanks to Jim and all for their advice. 73's de Tony G8DQZ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony Lord Sent: 13 April 2007 13:21 To: 'dx4win' Subject: [Dx4win] LOTW Hi All, I am considering joining LOTW but need some assistance from all you experts! >From within DX4WIN, I can export a file of my entire log in ADIF format. This I then pass onto LOTW. Later when I wish to send more QSO's how do I select calls made after a previous download? Will DX4WIN know the last entry for that previous download, or do I need to keep records? I assume I have to know that, say all calls prior to call no 5000, have been submitted. How do I then export data in ADIF format for all calls after 5000?? Appreciate peoples comments........ 73's de Tony G8DQZ _______________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win _______________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win
