Do you have the latest country file? Remember that 8.04 ships with an old country file, the one that was available at the time of first release. Are those calls associated with the correct entity? Are the DXCC flag(s) set to Invalid? If you look at the Country window, does it say that the countries are CONFIRMED? Are you doing a DXCC needed listing for MIXED only, or did you select a particular band and/or mode? If you are doing a CW need listing, remember that that award started 01/01/1975 The following countries _appear_ on the Needed list that I know have been worked and confirmed by me and appear as confirmed when I examine the entries in the log. FO8AT Clipperton K1IMP/KC4 Navassa K4IA/KC4Navassa On the other hand, at least one country I have never worked does _not_ appear on the Needed list Marion Island These anomalies suggest to me that the log is somewhat screwed up. There should be no such errors. DX4Win should have made the necessary adjustments from the old log which was based on DX4Win 7.something. I'm trying to think of ways to go through the log and find other errors which I expect can be found. Can anyone suggest what happened or a fix? Larry Alkoff N2LA Hello Jim. It's always nice to hear from you. Answers to your questions: Latest country file: I have just downloaded it from your website. The installation instructions will take a little time to digest! I took the first step by copying the entire save directory to a backup directory. Thanks for the tip that 8.04 shipped with an old country file. Are the calls associated with the correct entity? Yes. All the calls on Needed seem to have the correct entity. FO8AT is FO0 5/20/50 20 cw DXCC Mixed C Band S Mode S K1IMP/KC4 (Don Miller!) KP1 9/1/66 20 cw DXCC Mixed $ Band $Mode $ K4IA/KC4 KP1 6/23/69 20 cw DXCC Mixed -- Band -- Mode -- I suspect the marks following DXCC Mixed etc need to be changed. Are the DXCC flags INVALID? NO The Country window says all the calls are confirmed. I did not specify a particular band or mode so it should be a pure MIXED listing. What I don't understand why these 3 contacts are appearing on the MIXED listing. I would like them not to appear in Needed at all since they just clutter up the display. When I merge the new countries list with all the new Carribean countries it's going to be cluttered enough until I work them. Hope you can help.

Make sure just the Mixed box is checked, and Band and Mode boxes are UNCHECKED. Does this fix the problem? The Mixed box is checked with a C and Band and Mode are now unchecked. The 3 qsos now come up under the dxcc listing with an * asterisk. Somehow I now have a new embarassing problem. I cannot get the Needed list to come up on my DX4W804. Can you tell me what to do?

There are several headings for the columns such as: WORKED LABEL QSL SENT CONFIRMED SUBMIT CHECKED TOTAL TOT CONF What is the difference between the CONFIRMED and the TOT CONF columns?
