printing mailing labels
Tad Danley
What is the procedure to print mailing labels - specifically, labels for all of the QSOs on my VUCC progress report. Since the ARRL does not _yet_ offer VUCC via LotW, I need to print them all regardless of whether they have been confirmed via LotW.
Thanks and 73, -- Tad Danley, K3TD EM10dq |

DXKeeper 8.1.6 is available
This release
- when synchronizing QSOs or QSLs with LotW, QSOs reported by LotW whose Mode is DATA are considered to match a logged QSO whose mode "counts" as RTTY for ARRL awards (tnx to Bob WU9Q) - updates the AwardInfo.htm, index.htm, Log.htm, LogCompletedMain.htm, LogNewCapture.htm, LogNewMain.htm, ModifyLog.htm, Progress.htm, QSL.htm, Scripts.htm, and ViewEditLog.htm documentation files If your are uploading digital mode QSOs to LotW where the digital mode is not yet supported by LotW (e.g. JT65A), configure TQSL to "map" these unsupported digital modes to DATA. The above enhancement allows DXKeeper to locate these QSOs in your log when directed to synchronize with LotW; previously, DXKeeper would report such QSOs as not matching any logged QSO because of the change in mode introduced by TQSL.

Re: DXK - county look-up
I suspect that what Dave was getting at is that the State/County etc. may be dependent on the date of the QSO because the person has moved and QRZ.com will only show the present day information. I could have worked you while you were in Maricopa county Arizona but QRZ.com shows you in in McHenry county Illinois.

I'm entering some QSOs from old logs and have a subscription to the QRZ data

Re: WinWarbler Call Insert
DANNY DOUGLAS
Up at the top line in SpotCollector, do you see the letters WW between the set of brackets (along with CC, DXV etc)? And in the top line of WinWarbler do you see SC inside the brackets? If either of those do not show, it means that SC and WW are not talking to each other. You might need to close either one of them (or both), and reinitiate to get them talking.
