I'm familiar with Lance's spreadsheet and KV5W's database. I was hoping for something more "automated" based on my log.

When you use one of the custom awards in dx4win, you must first tell the program to apply a QSO to a custom award. So, for every 6m QSO, you would need to go back and fill in the Custom Award (FFMA) and Custom Award Value (grid square) for each QSO individually. W7GJ has a tracking program on his web site: http://www.bigskyspaces.com/ and KV5W maintains an on line database for FFMA chasers. Info on his QRZ page. These are probably the most convenient tools to use. GL with the chase. ---- 73, Mike Cizek W0VTT -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > On Behalf Of Larry Burke Sent: Thursday, 17 June, 2021 07:57 To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [Dx4win] FFMA in Custom Database I'm feeling a bit ignorant on how to create a report showing the grids I have worked for credit towards the Fred Fish Memorial Award (488 US mainland grids). I've never had the need to create a custom report until now, so this part of my DX4WIN experience is lacking. I have the Custom Award Database (v 21.3 2021/04/03 21:44:03) in my "save" directory and can generate a report showing the grids that are in the program, but that report is not populated with the grids I have worked. It actually shows no grids worked. I am missing something somewhere. Can someone walk me through, step-by-step, the process of getting a report that shows FFMA award status using logbook data?
