[Dx4win] VUCC totals not accurate

[Mike Cizek W0VTT]

Hello Dave,

There is one more place to check.  Starting with the menu bar up at the top:
File > Awards > VUCC Grid
Make sure you have the proper boxes checked under Confirmation, Mode group,
Valid modes, Valid bands, and Award bands.  Under Awards, only the Mode box
should be checked.

Subject: [Dx4win] VUCC totals not accurate

After all these years, I am just starting to focus on VUCC and FFMA awards
for six meters.  For VUCC, my confirmed totals in DX4WIN are about 70 less
that my totals showing on LOTW.  (I have very few grids confirmed via QSL
card.)  When I open the VUCC window, it is also apparent that confirmations
for CW and SSB are not showing as C.  Under Reports, Awards, VUCC tab, I
have all modes selected.  The same thing happens when I run a VUCC report
listing - confirmations for CW and SSB on 6 meters do not show up as
confirmed.

 

For example, for EM09 in Kansas, LOTW shows that grid was confirmed with
AB0S.  When I look up that QSO in DX4WIN, the Confirm LOTW box is set for Y
- so it is marked as confirmed in DX4WIN.  But in the VUCC window, EM09 only
shows a W in the CW and SSB boxes-there should be a C in the CW box.  If I
double click on the 6 at the top, all of my QSOs with EM09 on 6 meters are
shown, and AB0S clearly shows that it was confirmed via LOTW.

 

So why are these CW and SSB confirmations not showing up in the VUCC window
and on the VUCC reports?
