[Dx4win] Qsl Question

Mon, 15 Jul 2002 14:39:16 -0000

I get this all the time. With 140,000 QSOs in the log from here in 5 years
you can imagine my buro stacks.
It's easy to deal with if you have the window for previous QSOs open.
There you can see if the station has a CW/20m QSL already, in which case I
ditch the card. I have 10,000 cards printed at a time to get the best price
and it saves a lot of cards if you send confirmation of all QSOs made with
him/her even if you only get a card for say, one 20m QSO.
If there is a lot of QSOs I usually print directly to the card where I can
fit 7 QSOs nicely.
DX4WIN saves me a lot of effort and cards this way and it's fast too.
BTW if the card comes to me directly I will still send a card for the same
QSO again, just in case he lost the first one.

Subject: [Dx4win] Qsl Question

I have a question for the reflector audience. Contesting has opened the
doors for a major headache for me in the amount of qsl 's that I receive. I
am making about 15K qso's / year in contests and I am getting about 50%
sending me a card for each of those contacts. This is not an insignificant
amount of resources for me. I don't mind sending a card out for someone who
needs Alabama or Marengo Co, but how many times do you need a card from me
for 10 mtr SSB contest qso's. I am not going to mention the station/country
that has the record for getting the most of  my cards on a single band/mode.
I stumbled on to this one by accident: 11 cards. My question: is there any
way to get DX4WIN to show me the amount of cards/per station/per band/ per
mode. I will no longer send a card for third ( two already sent according to
log) or more qso's/band/mode regardless of cards sent to me unless direct
with SASE. I would like to create a list (blacklist if you please) of these
stations to shorten my response time to the ones who really need it. I guess
you could call it a qsl filter.. I really would like an answer! Thanks 73's
