[Dx4win] Green on white spots

[Dave Jaksa]

Wendell,

I thought I understood this but the as I read more, I get more confused.
Maybe (probably) I'm missing something.  The way I read the help files, =
the
Priority 6 "Band/Mode not conf" has nothing to do with the 18(+/-) =
separate
DXCC awards that are available.  The help file says Band/Mode not conf =
is:

"A band / mode combination that was never worked or confirmed. This =
contact
will not add to award standings. (The band is not an award band and the =
mode
is not a new mode.) The same callsign and band/mode combination is =
category
8)"

The way I read the help files, if I worked but still need a mode QSL it =
is a
Priority 4.  With a Priority 4 I may or may not need the band QSL.  If I
have the mode QSL but still need the band QSL it is a Priority 5. =20

As you state, Mode DXCC is band independent.  So, for DXCC I don't care =
if I
need say a 20 meter CW card from VE as long as I have a 20 meter and a =
CW
card from VE.  For that reason I have changed my Priority 6 spot color =
to
black on white, same as Priority 7.

Do I have it right or have I missed something?  Would appreciate any
clarification. =20

TNX & 73,=20

What you are missing is the recent changes in the DXCC program that now =
give
credit for 18 separate DXCC awards.

This is the game for many dxers.

Modes for MIXED, PHONE, CW, RTTY are the primary awards up to and =
including
DXCC Honor Roll.  Bands from 160 meters to 2 meters and Satellite =
qualify
for 5BDXCC and endorsements for an additional 6 bands as well as the =
DXCC
Challange award.  I am not aware of any of these programs that require =
you
to work every mode on every band.  That is what the green and white
discussion has been about.

Mode DXCC is band independent(there is not a 5BDXCC for PHONE or CW) -
(thank goodness)!

The details of the various DXCC awards that are properly tracked in =
DX4WIN
are listed below:
