[Dxbase] Duplicate QSO problem

Wed Jun 16 11:37:55 EDT 2004

 No mystery on this one but it does cause dupes:
 When I downloaded to LoTW using DXB 5.0 all digital modes were
logged as A2 (RTTY). Later I downloaded from DXB2005 with the proper modes.
I talked to Dave Patton at ARRL about this and he said just make the
correction to PSK as needed since you have to have a match before
confirmation is issued. In a lot of cases the DX station did the same
thing - downloaded first as RTTY then later as PSK for which LoTW gives
credit again - same date, time etc. but now credit for Digital. It's not a
big deal in my case but it does cause dupes both in my log and LoTW.
