Support - English speaking » Callsign change Apr 22, 2025 05:27 AM (Total replies: 1)

FAQ:
What you need to do is create a new, attached account for your new callsign.

Log into your existing account and go to 'My Accounts' page, https://www.eqsl.cc/qslcard/MyAccounts.cfm .

At the bottom of the page you will see a section called: 'Register a New Attached Account'. Change the callsign to be your new one, put in the start date of when you received the new callsign, and press the 'Create New' button.

The new account will be attached to your old account, so they will share the same membership level, and also the credits from both accounts will be combined for the eAwards program.

Get back to us for further assistances, if needed.

But not here, in this user FORUM, on the REAL support

support1@eqsl.cc
or https://www.eqsl.cc/QSLCard/ContactWebmaster.cfm

we rarely check here and only to reply on general interest topics

Getting more eQSLs » still getting cards from blocked callsigns Mar 5, 2025 11:37 AM (Total replies: 1)

Hi,

The "raw" command http://www.eqsl.cc/qslcard/DownloadInBox.cfm) downloads everything inbox+archive boxes.........reject box, normally NO ? my own rejected qso's are not displayed ?!.....

In the API for developers, you can find :

Optional
LimitDateLo = Earliest QSO date to download (oddly, in MM/DD/YYYY format with escape code 2F for slashes), optionally append HH:MM otherwise the default is 00:00
LimitDateHi = Latest QSO date to download (oddly, in MM/DD/YYYY format with escape code 2F), optionally append HH:MM otherwise the default is 23:59 to include the entire day
RcvdSince = (YYYYMMDDHHMM) Everything that was entered into the database on or after this date/time (Valid range 01/01/1900 - 12/31/2078)
ConfirmedOnly = Set to any value in the URL to signify you only want to download Inbox items you HAVE confirmed
UnconfirmedOnly = Set to any value in the URL to signify you only want to download Inbox items you have NOT confirmed
Archive = 1 for Archived records ONLY; 0 for Inbox (non-archived) ONLY; omit this parameter to retrieve ALL records in Inbox and Archive
HamOnly = anything, filters out all SWL contacts



nothing for the reject box, as can be expected....... http://www.eqsl.cc/qslcard/DownloadInBox.cfm?Reject=0 does not even change anything


In your case, you have 11285 records in the archive, 10 records in the inbox = 11295

100 records in your rejectbox and only the two D1 qso's appear in the downloaded file


It seems that you blocked ALL FROM THIS USER........so, I have restored them and individually rejected them
and you now have 11295 records in your inbox+archive, not 11297 records.

I'm sure that this case will puzzle our webmaster => forwarded

eAward Suggestions » awards blocked, FAQ and details Jan 20, 2025 07:59 AM (Total replies: 0)

FAQ N°1096

Q : Why am I "blocked" from the eAwards program and how can I get unblocked?

A : If we notice you have cross-posted eQSLs from one attached account into another one, it would imply that you made QSOs from different QTH's or different callsigns at the same time, which is a physical impossibility. To protect the integrity of our eAward system, we temporarily block your account from providing credits to other users' awards.



Note that your award applications can be rejected:

- If you have too high a rate of unconfirmed QSOs. Rule 10a
- If you have uploaded many QSOs with a different grid than the one in your account profile. Rule 14a
- repeated applications in breach of Rule 3b
- qso's satellite not configured in propmode SAT. Rule 18

.... etc... etc

Any rejection of an application is accompanied by the reason for rejection by the Award Manager.

In the case of a blockage, recovery is not automatic. As soon as you have corrected the issue, you have to ask an award manager to reinstate your account..

NB: in the Awards page, next to "manager" click on the manager's call sign to send him an e-mail

And I can't recommend enough that you read all the RULES of the Awards you are applying for



generally

3b : For any given number of credits, this eAward can only be earned once per applicant, regardless of attached callsigns.

10a. The AwardMaster for this award may determine at his sole discretion whether the eQSLs received are adequately matched by OUTGOING eQSLs sent by the applicant to confirm the credits applied for. A large number of unconfirmed eQSLs is against the spirit of the eQSL system and should be fixed by uploading your entire log, or by carefully confirming each valid incoming eQSL and rejecting each eQSL that does not match your log!

and more specifically :

eGrid
14a. Since the eAwards program is fully automated, it is not possible to scan the Comments of an eQSL to determine what grid square the contact was made from. The profile attached to each eQSL must correctly identify the QTH from which the contact was made. Users who upload numerous eQSLs that were not made from the QTH listed in their profile will have their account flagged as ineligible for participation in this eAward, either as applicants or as providers of contact credits.

eSat
18. For purposes of the eGrid Sat award, contacts must have been made via amateur satellite. On the other hand, credits for the eGrid UHF award can NOT be made by satellite. Because of the unfair advantage that contacts made using Internet-linked QSOs (such as IRLP, EchoLink, or eQSO) have over pure RF QSOs, they cannot be counted for this award. Due to the nature of these awards, our AwardMasters will be checking every credit individually, so please do not apply until you are certain that all your credits have the correct PROP_MODE tag (satellite, non-satellite, non-Internet, etc.) in the incoming eQSLs. You may correspond with senders of eQSLs that are incorrectly marked, to ask them to bring their eQSLs into compliance with the ADIF 2 specifications for propagation modes.

eWas
16a. Either Maryland (MD) or District of Columbia (DC) may be used as a credit, but not both. So, if you have both DC and MD, and only have 50 credits, you are still missing one State somewhere !

etc...etc

Hi,
Quote: There used to be a program that allowed this

Certainly a third party software, there has never been such a feature on the eqsl website itself.
There has been a lot of such softwares, some poorly designed
Quote: Is the staff thinking of providing a solution?

I have never read this in our Advisory Board discussions
If everybody runs such a program for his full inbox/archive
the server will fall to it's knees........
If I were asked...I would suggest to implement this for contributing members
bronze and above (11% of users)
This is just my opinion, I'm not the webmaster

Now, a lot of loggers do this, HRD, DXkeeper....etc ? I don't know them all
My own logger just displays the eqsl when I browse my log

Support - Français » Cas de blocage des diplomes Dec 29, 2024 04:46 PM (Total replies: 0)

Je viens enfin de faire passer la traduction de cette FAQ N°1096
Donc la voici :

Q : Pourquoi mon programme d'eDiplômes est-il « bloqué » et comment peut-on le débloquer ?


R: Si nous constatons que vous avez téléversé des eQSL d'un compte attaché sur un autre en doublon, cela signifierait que vous avez effectué des QSO à partir de différents QTH ou de différents indicatifs en même temps, ce qui est physiquement impossible. Pour protéger l'intégrité de notre système d'eDiplômes, nous bloquons temporairement votre compte afin qu'il ne puisse pas fournir de crédits pour les Diplômes d'autres utilisateurs. Dès que vous aurez corrigé les téléversements en double invalides, vous devrez demander à un gestionnaire de Diplômes de rétablir votre compte.

A noter que vos diplomes peuvent aussi être bloqués :

- Si vous avez un taux de QSO non-confirmés trop important. Règle 10a
- Si vous avez téléversé de nombreux qso comportant un locator different de celui de votre profil de compte. Règle 14a
- applications répétées en violation de la règle 3b.Pour un nombre donné de crédits, un diplôme ne peut être obtenu qu'une seule fois par postulant, quels que soient les indicatifs attachés.
- qso's satellite non configurés en propmode SAT. Règle 18
....etc...etc

Tout rejet d'une application est accompagné du motif de rejet par le Diplôme Manager.

Dans le cas d'un blocage, le rétablissement n'est pas automatique, il faut le demander au Diplome Manager dès que vous avez remédié à la cause du blocage.

NB: dans la page Diplômes, a coté de "manager" cliquez sur l'indicatif du manager pour lui envoyer un e-mail

Et je ne saurais trop vous recommander de lire toutes les REGLES des Diplômes auxquels vous postulez
.
par exemple pour l'eWas :
"16a. Either Maryland (MD) or District of Columbia (DC) may be used as a credit, but not both. So, if you have both DC and MD, and only have 50 credits, you are still missing one State somewhere!"

Hi,

Generally, it's either :
- because your correspondent is not "AG" (Authenticity Guaranteed)
- because he's been flagged as invalid for various reasons , cross-posted qso's, high rate of unconfirmed qso's....

Bonjour,

C'est, vous vous en doutiez, une limitation du système, dès que le chiffre total en bas atteint une certaine limite (1000, pas sûr ?) ce qui était un lien en bleu devient inactif et l'on doit alors procéder par filtrage.

Le webmestre a introduit un certain nombre de limites pour permettre à la tâche principale, téléverser ses logs, de s'éxécuter correctement.

Merci pour la communauté EQSL d'être un membre SILVER.
Je soutiens depuis que je suis ici l'idée de droits "à la carte" selon le niveau membre

Les ressources , bande passante, site hébergement, ...etc ne sont pas infinies et sur 454 000 utilisateurs uniques, 10% seulement sont membres contributeurs (BRONZE et plus).

La vieille fable de la publicité payant les ressources....n'est qu'une fable

voici ce que dit le webmestre Dave, N5UP : https://www.eqsl.cc/Forums/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=3663

You don't need to resend your eqsl's
The change applies insntantly to all your eqsl's , from the start

If you want your eqsl's to count for any awards, you need the"AG" status.
