This error just came up when starting DXK. Something must of changed but don't know what. Under Network Service I changed the Base Port to 52005 and that error went away. Any thoughts?

Same has happened today on my site. I closed DXK and started it again and no error was reported so far.

Ah, I found the 'Permit uploading of QSOs already uploaded to LOTW' checkbox. Also noticed that once you do an upload with this checked, it apparently automatically resets the checkbox after the upload is completed.

It appears I worked W1AW/7 in Washington state on 2/26/2014 @ 18:24Z.? I think the error I got refers to the county in Washington where the station was located.? The error is:
Broken: ARRL Section WA is inconsistent with DXCC Entity K and State WA and County WA,Okanogan
Is there any way to determine where the heck this station was located so I can correct this error?

There is no ARRL section WA, only sections EWA and WWA. DXKeeper knows what section each county is in. I've found that if you edit the Q and reselect the county (just bring up the drop-down, and select the county again), DXKeeper will insert the correct ARRL Section.

Recently, I attempted to upload QSO's for the special N4L callsign (for the Georgia QSO Party). Since this is a special call sign, I have certificates only for the dates of the QSO Party, one for each year. Evidently, I never got around to uploading the Qs for last year, so the upload included Qs for 2024 and 2025. LOTW selected the certificate for 2024, and rejected the 2025 Qs because they were outside of the dates for the 2024 certificate.

I changed APP_DXKeeper_LotW_QSL_SENT to 'R' for the 2025 GQP Qs, and attempted to re-upload to LOTW. Of course, I got the message that there were were duplicate QSOs in the upload, and the upload was rejected. How do I get these rejected QSOs uploaded?

E-mail QSLs are just another form of unsolicited spam e-mail. As
such "just delete them" *is* the appropriate response.

I just delete these now, but if you want to sign up to qslworld you are of
course entitled to do so. eqsl operate a different system in that the
system has a function to tell a qso partner that there are eqls waiting

Me too, and I delete them. For many years, my QRZ page has said that I no longer respond to JA cards, because they have overwhelmed the Bureau trying to win JA awards for the sheer quantity of card, and that I respond to requests for paper cards ONLY for QSOs that are confirmed in LOTW. I do a lot of contesting, and if I worked a station five times (on different bands), I'd get five cards from them, all automatically generated, two years after the contest, all via the Bureau. For me, at least, they destroyed the Bureau system.

DXKeeper makes it very easy to upload to LOTW, eQSL, and Club Log, and I'm 100% for all three since getting back on the air in 2003.

I am getting more and more online QSLs. Is there an automated way to respond back to their email address with my filled-out QSL?

+ Assuming you already have DXKeeper to be able to print QSL cards, as described and illustrated in



1. on the Main window's QSL tab,

1a. clear the QSL Queue if it's not empty

1b. set the "QSL Via" panel to "QSL Cards"

1c. check the "Print preview (QSL cards) box


2. For each logged QSO to which you wish to respond via email,

2a. select the QSO in the "Log Page Display" on the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab

2b. right click, and select "Add to QSL Queue" from the pop-up menu

2c. on the Main window's QSL tab, click the "Print QSL Cards' button

2d. in the "Print Preview" windows that appears, click the "Copy to Clipboard" button in its upper-right corner

2e. in the Windows Paint (or equivalent) application , paste the contents of the Windows clipboard, crop the QSL card image as desired, copy the cropped image to the Windows Clipboard, and paste the image into your email response to the sender

2f. on the Main window's QSL tab, click the Clear button

+ This could be further automated by adding a "Copy cropped QSL image to the Clipboard" command to the Log Page Display's right mouse menu. I've added this to DXKeeper's enhancement list, but won't go near it until I publicly release the next versions of DXKeeper and SpotCollector, which are still being tested by users.

From folks using qslworld?? I've gotten several of those lately.?? I thought it was from the recent CQ-WPX contest, but it's from older QSOs.?? I'm not using qslworld.
