The only answer then is to include all the "Sonder" DOKs both permanent & temporary in the file. I counted over 200 but looking at the DARC file there must be a lot more. Being a text file I guess it would not be too big. Can these old DOKs still be used for awards ? 73s Steve GW4BKG ----- Original Message -----

But what if someone , like you did, update his logbook with old qsl cards. So then it's possible that he had a qsl card from 20 years old with that SDOK.
