bug in the DXCC database?

Post by DL4KG »

I have worked 130 DXCC in RTYY and 44 in PSK31. Both figures are reported ok from Winlog, but when looking for the worked DXCC in DIGI MODE the program counts only 62 DXCC. In my opinion the minimum figure must be 130, maybe some more.
Any idea what is wrong?

bug in the DXCC database?

Hi Gerald

As of v1.8 a new procedure was used to allow digi-modes to be grouped in the DXCC database which hitherto was not possible, the idea was that digi modes including RTTY will have a trailing space character added to the DXCC database 'Mode' thus "RTTY" will be entered as "RTTY ", this alows the grouping but also by patern matching alows individual mode queries too.

It could be that some of your digi modes entered into the DXCC database were pre that version, and do not have the trailing space.

In the DXCC database press the Mode 'header' to sort by mode and run the cursor though the suspected entries to see if the trailing space character is present, if it isn't then add one manually as requierd but only for the digi-modes of course.
