Hello,
I would like to attach my portable call to my home call sign, but am geting this message:

Sorry, the dates conflict with this existing account:
S51J/P Start: 10-Oct-2002 00:00 End: 10-Oct-2026 00:00

I checked both dates, and they are the same. What am I doing wrong?

You need to use the My Accounts screen to attach that callsign, and you need to use the middle section (Attach other accounts to this account) to attach it, not the bottom section (Register a New Attached Account)

The callsign should show up in the middle section, all you need do is enter the password and press the attach button.

If it does not show up, log out of main account, log into the portagle account and make sure the email address is the same. Then, log out of the portable account and back into the main account, it will then show up. The "Attach other accounts to this account" function determines which account may belong to you by looking at email address and IP address.

In addition to the email address, the IP addresses also have to be the same. So, within one internet session you need to log into one account and then the other which will set the IP address on both accounts the same.

Once you do that, the /p account will show as being one you can attach.

I can tell from this end that you have not done that, there are different IP addresses on each account.

I did as you suggest, but no success. What are the first two numbers in IP?

I just logged into your account and attached in for you, probably save us both some time :)

Thank you! Now another question: I use S51J/P for WWFF activation and SOTA activation, and would like to have two different QSL cards for this, changing WWFF and SOTA numbers each time. It is not this possible I gues in eQSL, but I had to ask?

Only way to do that is to create multiple accounts, each with it's own unique and non-overlapping date range.

So it is possible, but potentially quite a bit of work depending on how often you will be at a different QTH.
