[Dxbase] Modifications to DXbase2007 for the "Naming" of Digital DXCC Award?

Fri Aug 12 23:02:53 EDT 2011

Hi Joe,

Just finished updating my DXCC Award and use Output/HF Numeric Statistics/Countries to obtain the Summary Window called DXCC Statistics to keep track of things. It has been very accurate. One of the columns in DXCC is called  "Dig/RTTY" and it appears to be RTTY & Digital contacts combined. When I combine my PSK31 & RTTY contacts confirmations manually the numbers are the same as shown in the "Dig/RTTY" column. So, it appears that some far-sighted person could see the day coming when RTTY contacts would be combined with Digital contacts. For now, I see only one necessary change to make. Retitle the column to "Digital" and drop the OLD "Digital."  A few of the Reports will have to reflect the change because of the change in the meaning of Digital. That's it for now.

73, Bob K6ASK

Neal and all:
I am not that smart on the DXCC program -- maybe we have an expert Card Checker who can
give us some guidance -- but, from what I can see out of this CHANGE from the
DXCC RTTY Award
now being called
DXCC Digital Award
and the RTTY award name is GONE -- as well as the RTTY Mode within the
Rules area -- now RTTY is just a subset of the Digital Mode ...
SO, after looking over everything on DXbase dealing with RTTY versus Digital,
I am sure thinking that there WILL be a needed change -- but, need an expert
here ...
Any thoughts ??
