Hi.
How does E-QSL manage American counties?
Is there a way to view the county name of confirmed QSOs via E-QSL?

Regards.

Hi,

eQSL manages the US counties in accordance with the most recent adif specifications

https://www.adif.org/310/ADIF_310.htm

Look for CNTY in the..... III.C.1.b QSO Fields...... section

Managing US Counties is extremely difficult, people can move, operate in /p or /m..etc and not necessarily log the county where they actually were. They can use their home profile and mention the real county in the comments...etc

You will find here a link to upload what is recorded in your account
It reflects what would be transfered to CQ, if you apply to the USCA award.
It reflects what was in the user profile, for the date of the QSO

If you don't know how to block-change COUNTY to CNTY in a text file, forget it....this won't be changed before long, the webmaster is very busy at the moment

I started many years ago with the American counties award, so long ago I manually carried it with the Counties Award Record Book green paper.
All with paper QSL, and thus I have confirmed about 1070 Counties.
I must have many more confirmed via LoTW, but unfortunately confirmations via LoTW are not accepted for this award.
However, E-QSL confirmations are valid.
Now I have to find out what new counties I have confirmed through E-QSL, to add them.
It is a somewhat laborious process to do and I am looking for a way to find out the new confirmations via E-QSL.
Regards.

OK !
Good luck

add : https://www.eqsl.cc/QSLCard/extUSA-CAStandings.cfm

the full list of confirmed counties in eQSL to submit to CQ awards (CQ interface).
This one is not detailed, with the former link (previous post), you have everything, band, mode...etc
with this, you should be able to see what is new, compared to your paper-list

Also, though the eCounty eQSL award is not yet in production, you can still check your standings

There are a lot of county hunting softwares on the internet, but most of them are not free
