Correct DXCC detection ? Clublog API ?
Hi,
there is IMHO no correct DXCC detection in SL. If you export to ADIF and upload to Clublog, you always get some error reports with incorrect DXCC.
So all your statistics and cluster spot analysis ist not correct.
Also new DXPed-Calls appearing in cluster windows ( current example: VK9WA ) are not showing the right DXCC.
Is there any way to update all QSO's in SL database with correct DXCC detection from Clublog ?
And is there a way to always see the right DXCC in cluster spots ?
I know it's a huge task to maintain a DXCC detection, Clublog maintains the best detection I know, and there is an (IMHO) easy API to use it from every logging software.
You just put the data in JSON container and can do a bulk query in seconds.
Is there a way for SL to use the excellent Clublog API ??
If needed I can offer some help, I did Clublog API calls in PERL.

RE: Correct DXCC detection ? Clublog API ?
Hello Jordi,
yes it's all ok now, my problem was that I mixed up this second QTH feature in SL with my manual DXCC corrections, I did sometimes answer the question "create a second QTH for call" with yes when simply changing the DXCC. After correcting (deleting PQTH) all those of my errors, SL DXCC detection is excellent, same DXCC and bandpoints as Clublog, for all my life's work :-)
SL is IMHO the best logging program ever, a big thank-you to you and Erik for keeping it alive.

RE: Correct DXCC detection ? Clublog API ?
Hi Thomas,
I'm glad that you found out the source of your problem. The Swisslog's country table is one of the best in the world (or maybe the best ). Thanks to the big effort of Erik, EI4KF!
However I have been able to implement both ClubLog functions in Swisslog! I found very interesting the function to fix wrong DXCC allocations. There are always some small number of QSO with wrong DXCC. It's been a bit tricky but I succeeded! For the own nature of the access database the function to update all QSOs may take even hours to complete (depending on the number of QSOs and internet connection). The ClubLog query is really fast but the process of reading/comparing in a logbook with thousands of QSOs needs a lot of time. I have tested with a 4Mb ADSL connection and an Intel Quad Processor computer and it took about 90 minutes to process 14000 QSO. I have placed a progress bar indicating the current processed record number and the total number of corrections made during the whole process. However is not a function to run everyday, maybe it's only executed once or twice but it's worthy because the logbook will stay in mint conditions!
Please stay tuned for the next release and read all the changes and news!

Hi Jordi,
great how fast you are able to try it.
For complete Logbook check, I think you can do a bulk query wih up to 10000 call/date pairs in one JSON-Container, it takes only seconds and you get the complete answer back.
Maybe query and correction can further be faster if only use an 'group by call and date' to not query again same lookup.
And for new entries or cluster spots, there are only a few call tolublog, maybe with kind of 'caching' already answered questions for those ever again coming spots of same station.
