Hi,
I am new to using eQSL. I want to download, to my computer, the eqsl logbook so that I can upload the info into LOTW. When I try to dowload an ADIF file, it appears as a webpage with the text of my contacts. How do I convert this file into an ADIF file. My computer doesnt give me the option of how to save it when I press the ADIF button.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sue

Hi Sue,

Instead of left clicking on the adi or text link when you are in the page :


Your ADIF log file has been built

There were ******** records
Click one of the following to download it to your computer:

.ADI file
.TXT file

right click on adi file, when the box opens, click on "save the link as"

a location and a filename will be proposed, normally yourcall.adi

That's all, you're done !

As a suggestion, I would recommend keeping your log program as your master copy of your QSO (ADIF) files and subsequently uploading to LOTW and eQSL.

You will loose some information such as the frequency of the QSO when your download your ADIF file from eQSL and upload those files to LOTW.

FYI: Some log programs such as Ham Radio Deluxe have fully automatic uploading of QSOs to eQSL.
