[Dx4win] Possible software glitch?

[Mike Cizek W0VTT]

Hello Bernie,

 

I'm not sure I understand exactly what is going on with your submission - but - if you have more than one QSO that qualifies for a band/mode/award slot, dx4win and LoTW frequently choose different QSOs.  I think one of them choses the most recent and the other choses the earliest QSO.  

 

It really doesn't matter which individual QSO is marked as being credited, as long as the numbers add up.  You can use AD1C's Compare DX4Win to LoTW utility to check this.  https://ad1c.us/dx4win/lotw/ 

 

If you are unusually fussy and geeky (like me 😁), you can manually change which QSO is selected.  In LoTW you must do it before the submission; in dx4win it can be done after the fact.  I have done both.  

 

Hope this answers your question.

Hi doing a LOTW submission-

 

Logbook of the world is using one contact to confirm a new mode and new band

 

Dx4win is using two contacts to do the same thing Dx4win submitting one qsl for  FT 8 mode  on 10m band -already confirmed CW SSB

 

Dx4win is using  other QSL  17m  QSL for new band only 

 

What I did here remove the 10 m FT 8 for mode and I added the mode to 17 m new band QSL -1 qsl 

 

I now match LOTW

 

THE 10 M FT8 would only be a band fill in my log?

 

Is Dx4win being redundant?

 

Both contacts were confirmed on LOTW same day
