[Dx4win] LOTW confirmations

Good afternoon Mike.

I understand what you are describing, but it seems when I upload to 
LOTW, it does not change anything to submitted, as with a paper qsl. 
When I download from LOTW to DX4WIN, it changes the "w" to a "C" but not 
for band or mode
As described, my 30m FT8 when imported from LOTW should have been band 
and mode confirmed, yet nothing
My 12m FT8 should have been mode only since 12m was confirmed previously

IF I go to submit LOTW contacts, nothing shows in the submission report

IF I confirm those same two contacts with an F2 (paper qsl) , shows as 
suppose to be.  That's where the conundrum comes from

          Hello Steve,

  Not sure I understand you correctly, but....
  The country Window shows what you have Worked, selected for printing a
  Label, Mailed for a card, or Confirmed.
  The Mixed, Band, and Mode boxes at the bottom of the QSO window show 
what
  you have submitted for DXCC (or other award) credit.  They will not 
change
  from the two dashes until you submit those QSOs for credit.  When you 
submit
  them, they will change to S.  When the credits have been awarded, you 
change
  them to C for Checked by selecting:
  Reports > Award Flags > Change award flags.  For EACH award (mixed, 
band,
  and/or mode, whatever those QSOs apply to), under Action, select: 
Submitted
  -> Checked.
  Then, and only then, will you see a "C" for checked in those boxes.

  Hope this answers your question.

  Good afternoon, when we last got together, I was having issues 
confirming
  certain awards using LOTW.  I was advised and did, check the award 
setting
  and included LOTW ih the Award report generator I thought I was set,
  UNTIL>>>>>
  I received LOTW confirmations for T7 on 12 and 30m, both digital 
Both
  showed as worked in the country "box" and when LOTW confirmed, changed 
to
  "C", but MIXED BAND MODE box, neither confirmations are indicated.  I 
double
  checked and these two contacts were unique to the other T7.

  Suggestions?  If it does this to the T7 contacts, how many other LOTW
  contacts am I not showing?
  Thanks in advance

  Steve KF2TI
