For mixed mode, over 2 2/3 pages of callsigns that have worked them all (Top of the Honor Roll). I'm glad I have an A callsign, so someday when I get all my cards in (4O, BS7, KH8/S, VU4), I'll be on the first page! :-) 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.ad1c.us Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
[DX-CHAT] ARRL DXCC database
Hi DX-ers. Is anybody experiencing problems with the LoTW databases? I worked Dave Summer as 4O3ZZ and he put his QSOs on the LoTW. The QSO showed up that I worked him. After my application for credit, the QSO was credited to my Challenge DXCC account but not to my DXCC account as a new country. Strange, why one database gets updated while the other one not. I also noticed substantial discrepancies between the Challenge and DXCC band databases. May be it is just my accounts are messed up. I wonder if this problem relates to N7NG's departure from ARRL. Wayne was on the ball each time I contacted him.. So far my e-mail to ARRL resulted in Thank you for your message regarding your LoTW account. Due to the volume of emails and phone calls, your message will be handled as quickly as possible. I do realize I have to give them time to investigate the matter.. 73s Lou KE1F Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
[DX-CHAT] ARRL 160 meter contest webform problem
The logging program I use (TLF) doesn't support the 160 meter contest so I entered my log info into the web form at http://www.b4h.net/ cabforms/. After submission, I received an error message back from ARRL. It turns out that the form on that site is for the 2005 contest and enters the date as 2005 (it says it right on the page, but I missed it). A search and replace in a text editor fixed it, but in case anyone else is using the web form to create a Cabrillo file, I wanted to pass along a heads-up on this. 73 - Bob, N7XY Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org

I don't know that ARRL is determining what you may or may not post on your web site. What they are saying is that if you choose to post full details of QSOs (specific times), your action can contribute to cheating and as such, it violates he rules of the DXCC program. I don't see this as any different than a business listing the name, address and account numbers of its customers on a public web site. As long as the business does not publish the credit card and social security numbers it's probably not technically illegal but the information may well be enough to enable a less than honest person to get the credit card and social security numbers of those customers. 73, ...

RE: [DX-CHAT] ARRL
Organizations can establish rules governing the behavior of their members so long as those rules are not discriminatory. Its not illegal to put a decimal point between the 1 and the 8 of an 18 mHz QSL either, but submit that card to the DXCC desk for credit and you'll also lose your membership. 73, Dave, AA6YQ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Urb LeJeune Sent: Monday, August 14, 2006 16:59 PM To: dx-chat@njdxa.org Subject: [DX-CHAT] ARRL Am I the only one who is concerned that the ARRL is determining what others may put up on their website?

Re: [DX-CHAT] ARRL
Urb, the premise of your statement is false. You may post anything you wish. However, you must remember that it's THEIR program(DXCC). If you choose to post information that, in the eyes of those managing the program, negates the efforts of those who organized and carried out a DX-Pedition you are free to do so. You simply must be prepared to deal with the wrath of those who you negatively affect. That not only includes the DX-Peditioners, but those who put their time and effort into contacting the DX-Pedition.

To complete the contest of the DXCC rule: and may be considered sufficient reason to deny ARRL award credit for contacts with any station for which such presentations have been made.

RE: [DX-CHAT] ARRL
Exactly.. so if everyone would not make a DXCC submission for 1 year and also not renew their membership for 1 year they would maybe finally realize that the membership is the ARRL and they need the MEMBERSHIP for them to function as a whole. ALL the members should have say in a vote to make rules after they are proposed.. not just a select few to make rules they feel they need, rules should be made by votes from the membership...I do not like a lot of things they do. ALL you ARRL members its your program and Newington is there to work for its members not for themselves. Seems ARRL is run more like a dictatorship than a democratic one.

Re: [DX-CHAT] ARRL
Pete, you are speaking in terms of a true democracy. That may be practical for small organizations, but as in the case of the US Government that is impractical. That's why we have a Republic(a representative form of government) rather than a true democracy. The League is structured similarly. Additionally, there are those like me who can not opt in or out with their dollars. I have been a life member since you could become one for $200.00. Sometime in the late 60's or early 70's.

Re: [DX-CHAT] ARRL
Why would anyone need any more info than callsign, band, mode in an online log to tell if you made the contact? Maybe to try get credit for one they really didn't work? If you made the contact, then the date time is in your log. I sure don't see anything wrong with trying to make it harder on the cheaters. 73, Tim - N3XX - Original Message - From: Peter Penta [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: dx-chat@njdxa.org Sent: Monday, August 14, 2006 7:57 PM Subject: RE: [DX-CHAT] ARRL Exactly.. so if everyone would not make a DXCC submission for 1 year and also not renew their membership for 1 year they would maybe finally realize that the membership is the ARRL and they need the MEMBERSHIP for them to function as a whole.

[DX-CHAT] ARRL Website Info -- Check for DXCC Listings ??
It seems like I have read that you can check your current dxcc status online, at the ARRL website. I went to the site, but cannot find the place to do this. I suspect you must log in as an ARRL member, and then maybe you have the option to check current (individual) dxcc status, is that correct ?? I am an ARRL member, but have never logged into the members only site. So, I don't know my user name or password. Is there a simple way to acquire this information?
