[Dx4win] DX4WIN Digest, Vol 214, Issue 12

[Bud Governale]

Jim's ADIF to DX4WIN saves a lot of time and is perfect for getting QSO
Party contests counties into DX4WIN.

But for non county contests, WSJT-X contacts and any other contacts there's
a great time saver to extract counties into the ADIF file for importing
into DX4WIN.
I use a utility program called ADIF LOOKUP. It's found here:
http://www.ko4bb.com/getsimple/index.php?id=adif-lookup-software

It very quickly looks up all contacts and adds all the information found in
HAM.QTH to the created ADIFLOOKUP Output file. This includes the county and
state among everything else.

Used to take me days to add counties looking up each on QRZ.COM.
Now using ADIFLOOKUP from an N1MM ADIF file to an ADIF import into DX4WIN
from a big domestic contest.

73,
