LoTW QSL setting change

Unread post by EA5Q »

I wonder if I can change the QSL status of several QSOs at at time.
I have read in a previous post that this cannot be done because it is potentially dangerous for the database.

But I would like to ask it again, just in case there would be another message I could have missed.

I uploaded my logbook to LoTW using an ADIF file but this did not update the RUMLog, unfortunately.
Now I have to be very carefully to not upload the log again with RUMlogNG, to avoid the dupes, which LoTW does not allow to delete.

I know I can live with it, but is there a way to do it.
For example, any setting that if you export your log to ADIF, you could tell RMlogNG to change the LoTW / eQSL QSL label to S.

Thank you for this wonderful software.
Einfach klasse!

When you are on the same computer, tqsl won't upload dupes. How many QSOs are affected?

Fine Thomas.

Does this mean that if I upload ALL my affected contacts (more han 5.000) tqsl won't upload dupes, and RUMlogNG will correctly update the QSL field from W to S?
And all those contacts which are already marked with X won't be affected, I suppose.

This would be good solution.
I know that I will need to be very patient as this will take a long time. But can leave the laptop working for as many hour as needed to do the job (my connection is fast).
Anyhow, how much time could it take, approximately?
Maybe it would be better to do it in bunches.

Thank you very much for your prompt answer, Thomas.

The best solution would be you try it out with ca. 100 QSOs first.

Thomas, great. Just tested it an it works as expected. No dupes on LoTW.

BTW, is there a minor bug in version 4.1 (308) The name of the program appears to $(PRODUCT_NAME).

Or is it a problem on my side?

And another easy question:
Can I change the language back to English only for RUMlogNG?

Noch einen schönen Sonntag aus Valencia.

This is just a failure in the Spanish translation.
You can set your system to English, start RUMlog and set it back to Spanish.
