[Dx4win] What to Do About DX that has not QSL'd or has said NotInLog

[Milan Gütter, OK1FM]

DX4WIN'ers,

Be carefully with Valid/InvalidDX.

When a QSO is noted as Invalid, this QSO counts not for awards - that's OK.

But a DX4WIN bug is, that this QSO counts for DX spots window 
like Valid for same band, the P (and the spots color) is low. 

If this QSO will be for you a new Band /Mode, you wil see NOT the high
priority color 
for an other callsign on same band, you will see the grise or an other LOW
PRIORITY color
in the DX spots window.

For avoid this, I use an other, not standard methode for this invalid QSOs:
I change the Band for SAT mode (At present Iam not QRV via SAT) 
and write a Note in the Notes field.
QSO stays in my log book and DX spots color for same band goes right.

I think this bug is a theme for next DX4WIN upgrade.

Tom,

Personally, I delete it from my log...NIL means a contact was never
made....it simply wasn't a contact...

As for those who haven't QSL'd, if I choose to resend a QSL, I mark the
Label as Y...put a notation in "Notes for this QSO" like "second request
sent 7/1/2007"...and print a new label...the QSL Date field will get updated
with the new print date....

Also Invalid DX to me means that the other station does not count for
DXCC...like the Romeo North Korea QSO...or an unauthorized operation like
some of the 7O operations...

I am sure others on the reflector have other methods....but the above works
for me!....

73...

Tom,
        I mark it "Invalid DX" because I thought I worked him.  That way he
doesn't show up in your QSLing list.
