GlobalQSL recognizes "Y" and "N" in ADIF's relevant fields and printing PSE QSL or TNX QSL accordingly, leaving the "comments" field for comments/notes. > > Between DXbase and GlobalQSL, I am looking forward to getting this > QSLing process more automated as my free time answer QSL bureau cards > is often in short supply. I'm also very short on time, so I use the GlobalADIF by Joe. I'm placing all QSO's to be sent thru GlobalQSL into group #1 in DXB ("via bureau") using "Save QSO label" button in DXB toolbar and once in a while running Joe' program, requesting to print all pending labels of "group #1". This is for "PSE QSL". For "TNX QSL" you can use- while checking the received card- "QSO reply" button in Previous QSO dialog window, which will automatically place the "pending labels" to specified labels group (default is "bureau", i.e. group #1). Very simple. 73!
