Procedure to insert the QSOs in eQSL with BBLogger:
|
Prerequisites: - BBLogger - Valid eQSL.cc account |
In BBLogger: - Select the menù File then Files Manager - Select Export Log in File - Set Type File on ADIF Confirm eQSL - Now we have to choose which QSOs to save in the file to send to eQSL: o Possibly select the Log Origin, if different from that proposed. o Insert the comment to be sent to eQSL with all QSOs (e.g.: “Tnx, Pse paper QSL via Bureau or LoTW, 73 GL GDX”, or “Abbey XXXX", etc...) o In QSOs Filter set: § ALL QSOs to send all QSOs (usually the first time you load your QSOs on eQSL) § EQSL NOT SENT to send just the QSOs not yet sent to eQSL, in other words those with eQSL QSLs containing “N” - Enable (if needed) Date QSO Filter in the left box, and set the date range to extract the QSOs to send to eQSL. - Last action: write the name of the ADIF File through the \... key right upper corner of the Files Manager window. Save as (e.g.) C:\BBLogger\FilesAdif\URCALL.adi (URCALL will be your callsign). - When the program asks you “Is this file to be sent to eQSL?” if your answer will be YES, BBlogger will put the value “Y” in the field: eQSL QSLs for all QSOs that you are going to send to eQSL, so those won't be considered anymore for next sending.
This is the Files Manager window
- The file you got has to be sent to eQSL server; - Open with your browser the address http://www.eqsl.cc - Insert your username and password to enter eQSL
-
Click on Upload ADIF:
- With Browse key select the .adi file just created: (C:\BBLogger\FilesAdif\URCALL.adi or similare) - Click on Upload File
N.B: Clicking on Date of Last ADIF Upload , eQSL will answer you with the date of last upload of the .adi file, to remember you last time you sent your QSOs.to the server. Follow the procedure to insert the confirmated QSOs of eQSL in BBLogger.

Procedure to insert the confirmated QSOs via eQSL in BBLogger:
|
In BBLogger: - Select from the menù File > Files Manager - Select LoTW/eQsl/DM780/QRZ.com - Tag All eQSL RCV (.adi) - Click on Start Download
BBLogger will open in a page of your preferred browser the eQSL page where you can download the confirmated QSOs.
- Click with RIGHT KEY of the mouse on the writing .ADI file and from the menu select “Save object as”, the save your file (its name will be something like: I2DMAC1452.adi) as example in the folder C:\BBLogger\DownloadFile\ - Now from Files Manager, select Import File > LOG - Set Type File as ADIF Confirm eQSL - At last hook the ADIF file previously downloaded through the \... key (upper right corner in the Files Manager window, giving the path C:\BBLogger\DownloadFile\ I2DMAC1452.adi or similar) - Let's confirm the request of import. - A TXT error file will also be created, to check the procedure. - N.B.: It is possible to transform the downloaded .adi file in a normal ADIF file, to recover the QSOs maybe after a data losing, modifying the file with an editor like the Block Note just erasing the header of the file, until <EOH>. To import it as a normal ADIF file, in the menu File > Files Manager select Import File > LOG, set Type File as ADIF Log Generic and all will be OK. (Warning: BBLogger checks the header, so if you don't erase it, the file will be imported as confirm file and not as normal LOG file!) - 73 de - IW2NZX Cristiano.
