Hi, John, great minds think alike. This is my solution also - group
number each contest and filter by mode, date, etc. I keep a list handy
of group numbers for each call, which totals four so far. Each call has
its own logbook in DX4WIN.

Hi Mike,
I asked Paul about this yesterday. He hasn't responded yet.
It looks like a change might be needed. I tried by enabling all bands and
modes in my WPX preferences and did a submission. It submitted QSOs for the
WARC-79 bands OK (12/17/30) but did not submit ANY QSOs for RTTY.

In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Hi All;
I maybe missed the point, but I really wonder what you guys are doing to even
think about running out of Group numbers.
I don't understand anyone's need really to group by year or by contest; since
you would still need to do a search operation (F8) to filter by Group. You
might as well do a search by date in that case. I use Groups in my main log
to differentiate from G3NKC and G3NKC/P, and I think I set up GQ3NKC - so call
sign variants.
For my GD contest operations, I currently hold separate logs for GD0EMG, MD6V,
and MD4K; even though I have been thinking about the merits of merging those
logs (might be nice to see a complete DXCC achievement, for instance); but I
often think these would be outweighed by the overhead when doing the QSLling
chores (when someone requests a card, I normally QSL all QSO's with our
particular contest call. I might end up selecting QSL's for all call's; meaning
I have 3 labels that would have to go on 3 cards). ON balance I think those
logs will stay separate.

Hi Bill,
I'm not sure how you allocate your group numbers. I started giving a number to
every contest, IE CQ WPX CW,2005,2006,2007 ETC and could see I would fast run
out of numbers. On a suggestion from a local user I now only have one number
for each contest and use the same number each year. Its a simple matter to
filter by year or mode as and when you require. This has reduced my groups
considerably.

Group numbers is a nice feature and I use it a lot. I just wish we were allowed
more than 254 group numbers. At my present rate I will have all 254 numbers
used by CQ WPX CW this year. When that happens I will have to look at other
options to accomplish this or look at different software that will do what I
want.

What about using group numbers - assign a different group to each imported log?
