Re: Electronic QSL

 

Hi all,

Until recently, I was getting 5 or more electronic QSL's from numerous sources, until I took my email address out of QRZ and put it in my bio with an (at) instead of the @ sign.
I did try unsubscribing from two sites, but that did not stop emailed QSL's from arriving here. I also noticed that all were already confirmed via LoTW, so I really did not see the point of this spam. If they were from folk that do not use LoTW, I would have responded (via email) to suggest that if they want a card, then use the bureau, as an electronic card is not valid for anything.

From what I can see, these electronic cards are simply an ADIF dump to one of these services, and not personalised at all, which is pointless.

I therefore totally agree with Joe on this.

I have also gotten many of these. Some are nice cards, other's very
generic with a "typewriter" font that's hard to read. I should just dump
them but I have been answering since old habits die hard. I also send to
eQSL, LOTW and CLublog automatically when the QSO is terminated.
I made up a card with Paint Shop Pro (any paint/art program will work)
with everything, address, grid square, county etc but the QSO info. When I
get a card, I look in DXK for the particular entry and highlight it and
copy to clipboard in the popup. This goes to wordpad which I copy and in
Paint Shop Pro, add it to the card I made which now has the needed info
added in text. Save it and send it off.
Odd that when I copy to clipboard, I do not get all the info...i.e. the
signal report is missing although it is in the log entry and was
highlighted and maybe copied. No big deal...I just add the sig report. Is
there a limit to what can be copied to the clipboard in DXK?

+ Rather than generate a QSL card image populated with QSO information and
place it in the Windows Clipboard, perhaps a new "Generate text QSL"
right-mouse menu command could be an augmented version of the current "Copy
to Windows Clipboard" command that include signal reports and the "QSL
Message" item (if logged). This could be generated in multi-line format,
e.g.

Callsign: ZS8W

Re: Responding to Emailed QSLs

 

Of course, *ALL OF THIS* is moot. DXKeeper already allows one to
create and respond to e-mailed QSLs.

All that one needs to do is design a QSL card in QSL Config -> Cards. Set the Printer to "Microsoft Print to PDF" and set the size to "North
America 4x6". Place the QSOs for which QSLs are to be sent in the
QSL Queue. The "cards" can be "printed" and saved individually and
the resulting (pdf) file(s) attached to the e-mail reply.

One can select QSOs for e-mail QSLing in mass by tagging each QSO
intended to electronic QSL by setting QSL Sent Via = E, then filtering
the log page display with QSL_Sent_Via = 'E' (and any other limit like
Station_Callsign = 'XX1ZZZ') before clicking "Add Needed" or "Add
Requested".

Card definition for use with "Microsoft Print to PDF":

Page Layout:
1 card (right feed)
Card Dimensions:
Width: 6 Side borders 0.5
Height: 4 Top border 0.375

If the recipient wants to print a 3.5" x 5.5" hard copy instead of
a 4" x 6" "card" it is only necessary to scale the PDF to 85% when
printing.

Note: Using DXKeeper's *EXISTING* Print Card capability also allows
QSO Specific QSL Messages.

Re: Responding to Emailed QSLs

 

Joe,?
I think you have the best solution.? I have been printing the email "telegram" and then hitting delete.? Better not to respond in any way.? My QRZ page is clear about?what I will and won't accept for confirmation.? I won't remove my email address because it is legitimately useful for my purposes but to answer any of these emails is just inviting trouble.? I have not yet determined if any of these match actual QSOs so from now, I'm not going to bother printing them for future research.? I hope everyone will come to a solution to this issue.? I continue to use LOTW, Buro cards, and direct cards.? With cost of mailing going up even Buro and direct is getting too burdensome.? If ARRL would accept other sources as confirmation I'd consider them.

The damage is done before the delete key can be used.? Lacking a
"bounce" a commercial e-mail generator can assume the address is,
at least, valid.? Filters require reviewing anything in "SPAM" to
confirm the filter is not triggering falsely on valid e-mail and
that opens one to hidden payloads.

Unsolicited commercial e-mail is, arguably, an illegal invasion
of one's privacy and everything should be done to discourage such
activity.? If one really wants a confirmation they can mail a
physical card or use LotW ... or, forbid, send a personal e-mail.

If eQSL would offer this service for a certain additional fee in addition to the existing eQSL service it should be possible to use those electronic qsl's also for the awards which accept eQSL (as the qso information is already available in eQSL, no need to present electronic qsl's). I don't download the images normally, only for some specific qso's confirmed via eQSL, therefore I am missing somehow the effort of the qsl designers, but that is the reality, at least for me. I am only using eQSL to be able to respond to SWLs which would need paper cards if eQSL would not exisit. The confirmation of other qso's is just a courtesy and easy to do via DXKeeper. This is very similar to the upload of qso's to qrz.com.

correct, and wasnt that the original question, how can I determine the 137 thats worked but not confirmed?

+ The request was to identify the 137 unconfirmed QSOs, not 137 unconfirmed DXCC entities.

Run the realtime award tracker, and only check worked¡­.
+ The DXCC tab of DXKeeper's "Realtime Award Tracking" window can be used to identify DXCC entities that are Worked but not confirmed.?

As a buro card sorter who relies on QRZ.com, I hope this advice is not taken to heart. We rely on QRZ to get email addresses to communicate with buro account holders! When there's no email address, the alternative is to waste postage and envelopes to try to contact buro users. That gets to be a big expense after a while.

Re: Responding to Emailed QSLs

 

Majority of electronic qsl's I receive are not via QSL World (or using the N1ET tool) but from QSL Creator and those people which use the tool of PA4R. It looks as if they all use the email-information given in qrz.com (for sender and receiver of the card). If you take out your email information in qrz.com it should be very likely that you will not receive any electronic qsl. This should work in addition to clicking on the unsubscribe links.

If eQSL would offer this service for a certain additional fee in addition to the existing eQSL service it should be possible to use those electronic qsl's also for the awards which accept eQSL (as the qso information is already available in eQSL, no need to present electronic qsl's). I don't download the images normally, only for some specific qso's confirmed via eQSL, therefore I am missing somehow the effort of the qsl designers, but that is the reality, at least for me. I am only using eQSL to be able to respond to SWLs which would need paper cards if eQSL would not exisit. The confirmation of other qso's is just a courtesy and easy to do via DXKeeper. This is very similar to the upload of qso's to qrz.com.

Re: Frequency Dependent Device output to Serial Port

 

+ AA6YQ comments below
I am trying to use my transceiver frequency that is captured by DxCommander with the Frequency Dependent Device to generate a Ascii string to output to a serial port.? I can get all the way to string generation, but cannot figure out how to direct it to a different serial port than the transceiver
+ Sending Frequency-dependent device data to a serial port is not supported.?

+ What make and model antenna switch are you seeking to control?
