I have an extreme lack of trust with most programs because of the country data base and call sign prefix confusion cause updates from time to time are not current cause of me not entering them. So I resorted to the manual hunt and find system cause usually in my case the system looks at one prefix as one country and in reality it is another.
When this type of thing happens no program makes this an easy job. Garbage in is Garbage out. It is still messed up, true you can get print outs, but the order that it is in is does not correspond to the way LOTW prints it out cause there are all ways a few prefixes out of place which makes it difficult, time consuming, and confusing.
Best go to ARRL LOTW
Click on AWARDS tab
Select your call you want above DXCC AWARD ACCOUNT
Click on DXCC AWARD ACCOUNT
On the left click on ACCOUNT CREDIT
Select RTTY, ALL CREDITS, PREFIX
Here you can select what your looking for what you need by a process of elimination.
Stay on course, fight a good fight, and keep the faith. Jim K9TF/WA9YSD
