[Dx4win] Pt 2 Print log for DXCC with Multi QSO's on QSL

[Tom Branch]

Paul,

I always thought they had to be sorted by DXCC prefix.

>From the ARRL:

Q: How should I arrange my cards?

A:  This is an important part of the application process. Your cards must be 
arranged first by band, then by mode. Cards with more than one QSO should be 
placed at the end. Cards must not be sorted alpha-numerically.


Q: Why do I have to sort cards by band then mode instead of just 
alphabetically by prefix?

A: The most labor intensive and costly part of the program is the manual 
data entry of the QSO information. In the data-entry process, we have to 
change the callsign and date with almost every entry. When bands and modes 
are properly sorted these fields will not have to be entered with each card 
as they are retained from the previous entry. If the cards are properly 
arranged, we can process an application in less than half the time.

Perhaps this is a change due to impementation of LOTW?

73 de Tom, K4NR
