[Dxbase] RTTY and Digital spots

[Peter W2IRT]

Hi guys,

OK, I'm trying to wrap my brainstem around digital spots and how DX 
Base handles same. I only operate RTTY in digital, although I once 
did play with PSK-31 and have a few confirmed on that mode. First 
off, am I correct in assuming that for DXCC purposes, a PSK-31 QSO is 
treated the same as a real RTTY contact?

If so, in the Alerts section, I have all the RTTY tick boxen ticked 
(and none of the digital boxes ticked). I also have "Merge RTTY and 
Digital lookups" ticked. I have New Band and New Mode seleted as what 
should alert me.

Now here's a case in point: I have England confirmed on PSK from way 
back, but never worked it on actual RTTY. If the League treats both 
Q's the same for DXCC purposes, then DX Base should ignore the spot. 
It's not, however -- DX Base is still showing it as a needed mode, 
even though it's confirmed on PSK. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.



Cheers,

Peter,
