Here is a question:
Should I just keep making my log bigger and bigger and posting it to eqsl?
I am using DXKeeper. I see no way to set a date range for adif upload or to set a upload from the stop of the last upload. ( if you know what I mean).
Does eqsl care that I will be uploading my "entire previous log before the upload gets to the new data?"
I would think that is not what eqsl wants.
I have split my logs now into sections and am uploading them to eqsl in sections. When I get some qso's in a new log I upload it to eqsl and then start a new log (to upload later.)
But-DXKeeper does not keep the data from the old logs so it can update my "Countries worked" etc.
It appears I need to combine all the logs together for DXKeeper to keep my total stats.
Any thoughts as to what I am doing wrong and any hints to help me out? Any answers for my eqsl uploads or should I just keep making one big log and uploading it from time to time?
Thanks Mike N8MRS

Does DXKeeper have the ability to auto-upload to eQSL, or are you having to download an ADIF file from DXKeeper and then upload that? If it can upload directly it should have a mechanism that shows the QSOs already uploaded. If not, within DXKeeper, do you have the ability to only select certain QSOs to write out to the ADIF file?

It is best if you only upload new QSOs. eQSL can handle duplicates, but it needs to do so on a QSO by QSO basis, so the more you have the more things will slow down.
