Received an eQSL notice yesterday for an old QSO. I didn't make note of what contact the QSL was for, and now can't find a way to locate it.

The archive and the search are both arranged by QSO date, with no apparent way to search by QSL date.

Is there one?

Hi,

I don't think so....

If you look at the adif file you get from the link at the bottom of the archive or inbox page,
you see that there is nothing related to a "receive date"


EQSL is still using an old version of adif files : 2.x

There is nothing specific to EQSL, just a too general field :

QSLRDATE Date QSL received date


In the last versions of adif specs (3.0.4) (latest ?) , you find :

EQSL_QSLRDATE Date date QSL received from eQSL.cc
(only valid if EQSL_QSL_RCVD is Y, I, or V)
(V deprecated)

which could be used ....

The date the eQSL was received is tracked in the system, but no way to sort by date received via the user interface, as Guy pointed out.

The only way to do it would be to handcraft a call to to the Downloadinbox.cfm program.

That would give you the eQSL you are looking for, and you can then do a search for it in your inbox/archive.

Easiest way is to log into the system first, then you can omit some of the parameters (username and password) from the call to the program. Then, type in, or cut and paste, the following URL:

http://www.eqsl.cc/qslcard/DownloadInBox.cfm?RcvdSince=20140801

That will give you an ADIF file of all the contacts received by the system since August 1st, 2014, change that date to whatever you want.

Perfect!

That does exactly what I want.

Thank you, Dave,

I vaguely remembered that this tool existed since I used it 2 or 3 years ago
to find unconfirmed eqsl in the middle of my archive.

Really helpful ! I found the latest version of "DownloadInbox.txt"
with all the usable fields updated in january 2014
