Greetings,
Pulling what hair I have left out...hoping you guys can help.
I have made a rookie mistake I think. Started with DXbase a couple of years
ago. In the beginning I entered a few QSO's just to see how things
worked...ended up entering my entire paper log collection over time
finishing up tonight. (with a year and a half gap in the middle of no use)
I'm crosseyed...
I've not made any submissions to LOTW. Do have an account setup with both
callsigns I've had. (2 certificates)
When I had DXbase create an ADIF file it was for my entire log since I had
not submitted to LOTW before. The mistake is that all of my log is under my
current call in one database. Looks like I should have created two
databases one for each call. When I try to have LOTW (TSQ?) convert the
ADIF file for upload it flags quite a few log entries as having Certificate
date out of range errors. I am assuming I am trying to have it convert
QSO's that are outside the certificate dates for the current call. In
generating the ADIF file I also had it flag the database that all QSO's have
been uploaded to LOTW. Not sure how to fix that....
I guess what I am needing is a way to cut the database records for my first
call sign and paste them into a database for that call sign which I have
created within DXbase. I really don't want to have to type all the QSO data
for my earlier call sign again. Were talking 1977 til 2006...several
hundred records.
Any help for the noob?
TIA...
