Here is my confusion; I use N3FJP's Amateur Contact Log, and it has a function to upload my QSO contacts using ADIF to eQSL. But what happens then?

1. Does eQSL automatically send all of my eQSL cards out to all of my new uploaded contacts?
2. If so, does eQSL print my log's "comments section" unto the eQSL, or only my pre-canned eQSL comments?
3. Or do I get to select exactly which uploaded contact to send an eQSL card to, and also be able to customize the text for that particular QSO?
4. Or??

Many thanks for any explanation!

1) Yes
2) Comment on the card is whatever was used in the log entry you uploaded
3) No (see 1 and 2 )

Have a read through this, may help: http://www.eqsl.cc/QSLCard/FAQDisplay.cfm?Topic=1004

Thanks for the info, David, but with Number 2 included on the eQSL kills the entire concept (for me at least) in using eQSL. The reason? My comments section in my log includes very personal comments, such as "op was too QRQ", or "op was too QRS", or "op was an A1 operator!", or "op sent rough code", or etc.

The Amateur Contact Log that I use also inserts the contact's address in the Comments section, which is rather repetitive. In fact, it sounds like I don't have very much control over the comments inserted into an eQSL.

Looks like eQSL is a no-go for me, unfortunately...

73 es TNX!

Ok, I am not familiar with that logger, but it depends on what ADIF field it is using for comments.

There is an ADIF field called "COMMENT" that is used only for internal notes, eQSL ignores that field if present during an upload.

There is also an ADIF field called "QSLMSG". This is the field used to add a message to the comments portion of the card.
