Hi all.
Pretty slow here.

I was wondering, what is the status of CQ accepting eQSL confirmation for the USA-CA award?

I see the page for it on the awards section and it tells me "Select an award on this page, and a screen will be displayed, showing the eQSLs that our system believes qualify for that award."

Does this work? Do I need a paid account? Are people earning actual USA-CA awards through this?

If people are actually using this to get their USA-CA, I have no problem paying for a subscription. If this is indeed the case, perhaps the page could be changed to specifically indicate as such.

Hi Ken,

If you go further in the CQ awards interface, you will see :

(Must be AG/Bronze+/non-SWL) Once you're BRONZE or above, it displays "my credits" instead

Does CQ accept eQSL credits ? yes, and since a long time.
Does it work ? Sure ! I got my own award (585) this way.

Hello Guy,

Yes, I see that on the page. I guess in my mind it wasn't clear.

I am happy to hear it works fine for USA-CA. I will sign-up and start making more QSOs.

73 and thanks!

eQSL will never be able to support county hunting or grid hunting with their current software configuration.

Years ago when eQSL was young, I volunteered to structure a database so they could offer rewards for counties, grid squares, mobile, portable operations and remote operations without having to create new accounts for each location. At worse, a user would need only one account per their own call signs. They declined.

I operated mobile from Florida to North Carolina and would have had to create a new linked account each time I entered a different county or grid square or when I arrived or left home.

Because their rewards are restricted to individual states, and because each location requires a new linked, non-reusable account, truckers and other drivers are not welcome users at eQSL.
