Hello all, Just a simple question... In a malformed logfile... who has the preference the QSLRDATE or the QSL_RCVD? I mean... imagine QSLRDATE gives you a date...
I only consider QSLRDATE to be meaningful if QSL_RCVD is set to 'Y'. If QSL_RCVD is not set to 'Y', then QSLRDATE is irrelevant. 73, Dave, AA6YQ ... From:...
That makes a certain amount of sense, although it may not be the way every program interprets it. (One could make a case that a valid QSLRDATE implies QSL_RCVD...
Should we seek to tighten up the ADIF spec on this and similar issues (e.g with QSL_SENT and QSLSDATE)? I'd be willing to take a first pass at this, but only...
Seems like we have this conversation every so often -- should ADIF specify program behavior of simply the content of fields? Mostly we end up deciding to stick...
This is revisiting a brief discussion from a year ago. I propose the addition of the following field definition to ADIF: AWARD String The award or award...
That raises an interesting structural question. I don't know of any other fields that are commonly used repetitively within a single record. I know at least...
II agree, Dave; upporting multiple Award tags would be difficult for some applications. I suggest that we define a single VERIFIED tag that lists the awards...
Hello all, I am using in KLog an idea I though some months ago that I think is good because it is working well so I am presenting and proposing it to the ADIF ...
Why not just deprecate 'V' as a value for QSL_RCVD? Defining multiple ways of presenting the same information just complicates things and increases the...
I think it should be considered for ADIF 3 maybe or later when (if) ADIF migrates to XML?. Simon Brown, HB9DRV www.ham-radio-deluxe.com ... From: "Dave Morris...
Dave, your scheme would seem the most reasonable to me Dave and was along the lines I was thinking. Larry, W6NWS ... for some ... awards for ... (as with ... ...
Answering that question will require some research, Dave. With the ARRL DXCC program, for example, I believe that once a QSO is "verified" by the DXCC desk, it...
Good point, Bob. <QSL_RCVD:1>V can be a synonym for <VERIFIED:4>DXCC but the presence of a VERIFIED tag does not imply receipt of a QSL card (or an LotW or...
Hi, Should a DXCC value be a three-digit value such as 006 or the actual value 6? Simon Brown, HB9DRV www.ham-radio-deluxe.com [Non-text portions of this...
... Being a _value_, the "6" should be perfect as the "006" should be just the same. However, any software will manage the six as a value (6) or string (006 or...
While browsing for some ADIF info I cam across http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxkeeper/Help/Items.htm . This made me think - Dave has 8 user-definable fields, I'm...
