[Dxbase] Dxbase LotW

[FireBrick]

I have 3 certs, one for each of my callsigns, wn9vol, wa9vok, and w9ol
the proper way to do it is
create a separate uploadable .adi file for each of the callsigns
You can do that by filtering by dates

Then sign each of these .adi files with the appropriate certificate for that callsign.

Upload it.

then repeat for each of the other callsigns.

Actually, you can't do it any other way. as each of your certificates is for a SPECIFIC callsign and time frame and a attempt to upload a qso that is out of that time frame for a specific callsign will be flagged in the creation of the file that would be uploaded.

It's been a while and I can't remember the specific error message but I know you will get one asking to 'ignore errors and continue' or something similar.

But using Joe Glockners auto upload utility for DXBase will help you greatly.
you select the proper time frame, callsign, and certificate and the autoloader will do the rest.

  Well im finally getting around to trying LotW .. I downloaded the zip file to help me upload my logs and im wondering what exactly to do.. I have certs for my previous call and my current call. Do I break my logs into dates as found on the certs and up load each one seperate ? Does LotW somehow figure out my country total between the 2 calls or really doesnt care? I just submitted to ARRL so i do know my totals and they are correct within Dxbase but i just wondered if lotw did anything with that data.. I actually have one more call and i dont see a place to ad a 3rd call in the upload down load program just a alternate op call ? ... Do i or can i add the third call there ?.. My understanding with LotW is that someone elses log data has to match yours or you wont see it so thats why im asking about the cert and log dates.. Im assuming that if i uploaded my whole log under my new call it wouldnt do anything for anyone that had worked me under one of my old ca lls.. 
  TIA
