Al, there has to be a misunderstanding. I have had cards from GlobalQSL
accepted by DXCC. Basically they are merely another bureau service. What
may be recalled is that GlobalQSL was not permitted to print and mail cards
from a US station and use the the ARRL incoming QSL service to forward that
card to another US station. But printed cards from a DX station come
through ARRL and are accepted by DXCC.

No I am not. I was very SPECIFIC when I emailed Bill. We ALL know eQSL is
NOT good for DXCC but neither is GlobalQSL, UNLESS they have changed their
position in the past year.
I tried to find that email BUT have changed from EUDORA to OUTLOOK and it
got trashed. :(
I am going to email Bill again in order to have him clarify the League's
position.

You guys are thinking of eQSL not GlobalQSL. 2 different things. GlobalQSL
is not an electronic QSL. Yes you upload your QSL's to them but they print a
REAL QSL then send to the station via the bureau system. You receive a REAL
card in return. All the hoopla a year or so ago was over eQSL. I have sent
over 700 cards and received many in return and the ARRL has accepted them.

Neal in answer to your question YES they are real QSL's, BUT, Bill Moore at
the ARRL desk told me a year ago that they are no good toward DXCC. How they
can tell they come from the service is beyond me but if they know they have
come through the service they will NOT be counted.
I would suggest you drop Bill another email to clarify this situation before
you do any programming within DXBase which might be for naught.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving and 73 de Al, K8SIX

They are real qsl card confirmations aren't they? They just print and mail
qsl cards for you from your adif file if I understood it correctly. It
seemed kinda expensive to me when I looked at it but I am sure its a matter
of how much you want to spend on qsls.
