Re: QRZ subscription value?
Yes, I did all that and verified the changes.? After about an hour delay sitting, followed by another try...? it started working properly.? Go figure.??
Again, thanks for your help.

Dave, Thank you and all the others for helping me get my logs transferred to DXLab.? I have one final error to clear up to finish this initial set of log?imports.?
?
This op appears to be from Moscow, Russia, which seems to be ADIF Country Code 54, Oblast 170, CQ zone 17, ITU zone 29, UA3{ABC} per ADIF 3.0.3 Specifications.? It seems like DXKeeper does not like the "district" KR-14.? It would be happy with KR-13 or KR-15 (from the pull-down menu, no KR-14). The ADIF 3.0.3 Specifications link to the RDA List shows:? "KR-14 BELOREChENSK NEW RDA since 01.01.2025." Is it possible that this new KR-14 is missing from DXKeeper?
+ To obtain an updated Secondary Subdivision Database that reflects the RDA List changes made in January, see /g/DXLab/message/227144
+Ordinarily, the updated Secondary Subdivision Database would have been included in a next version of DXKeeper by now, but I'm extending "Realtime Award Tracking" to support pursuit of the new IOTA HF and VHF award categories, which is a significant development effort in both DXKeeper and SpotCollector. + Alternatively, to stop DXKeeper from considering a QSO with inconsistent Primary or Secondary Subdivisions to be "broken", uncheck the "Subdivision validity checking" box in the "Other Awards" panel along the right side of the Configuration window's Awards tab. ? ? ? ? 73, ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Dave, AA6YQ

I'm thinking the error, in part, is the CQ zone of 16, where the ADIF 3.0.3 specification indicates CQ zone 17 for Moscow.??
DXKeeper is flashing "district" on the "Log QSO" tab in the "Award" panel.
I'm not sure of how to correct this error, thanks for any help:

spot with notes from WinWarbler?
Can I spot with notes from WinWarbler?
say working a POTA station... I log him from WW then go to dxkeeper
right click on his call to get the spot with notes to come up and?
inform that he is pota.? I did not find in on a quick search.
I did expand the layout on WW and did find I have a POTA window
Tx for the software... before the suite...and learn something new
all the time. Powerful!? Tnx dave.

QRZ awards are all free.
My normal practice is to upload my logs from DXKeeper to LoTW? then import to QRZ from LoTW.
I do have a QRZ subscription because I find value in the site and want to support it.? However I have not configured DXKeeper to upload and sync with QRZ because...well, laziness :-)? I'll get around to it someday.

It appears that one can export an ADIF file of QSOs and manually
import that file to QRZ log.? One can not use the API interface
supported by DXKeeper unless one is a QRZ.com subscriber and one
can not download confirmations - even an ADIF file - unless one

I have not attempted to determine if one can set up a logbook for
