Two accounts at same QTH - how to merge them into one? Mar 1, 2016 08:53 AM

Two accounts with identical QTH - how on earth did this happen, you could ask? Well, it's my fault! Utter misunderstanding on my side how eQSL accounts work: I assumed I have to create a new attached account when I change my eQSL design. So I got two accounts: "HomeQTH" and a new one "HomeQTH2" with identical QTH but different start/end times ("HomeQTH" = period before, "HomeQTH2" = period after eQSL design changed). Later I had to learn this idea wasn't clever. When applicating for eQSL awards the manager complained about my odd account construction. So I went to undo my work, I tried to change start/end times of my accounts, but I failed: They could not be altered afterwards. My plan then was to kill the second account and merge its outbox into the first account. So I backup'd the outbox of the second account, deleted it, and expected being able to erase this account. But that didn't work: Confirmed (retrieved) eQSLs aren't allowed to be deleted from the outbox. So I have no more ideas how to fix this trouble. Any hints appreciated! 73, Rolf DG4GAT

Easy way to create a vacation QTH (account) Jul 18, 2015 02:01 PM

Thanks Dave, for sorting out the thing in detail! Now I realize the issue is a date conflict on incoming QSLs. So there is no other solution than using a /p callsign. Well, I think I can cope with that.  73, Rolf DG4GAT

> Here is the situation i guess many OM's have (at leat if they use SOTA, GMA, etc., frequently) Yes, me too. Thank you for mentioning this topic, Malte! I'm going to have short, repeated WCA/COTA activities at an ancient castle situated very near to my home QTH (on the same WW locator). So I decided to get a separate new attached eQSL account for these activities: callsign DG4GAT (without '/p'), same locator as in my primary account, but a different QTH nickname. But I get the same issue as you told, Malte: eQSL doesn't accept this kind of setup, complains about conflicting dates. The QTH nickname does not seem to be a distinguishing feature when creating a new account. If this would be possible - David, you are right! - it would definitely save some work, and along the way I could keep a better clear view over all my eQSL accounts. No complaints here for my part! Just a well-intentioned gentle suggestion, and all my respect and thanks for the voluntary work. 73, Rolf DG4GAT DG4GAT |
