with 2,4,6 or even 8, 10, 12 digits if enough data are available...
I don't know DXAtlas (better, i don't have it installed) so i don't know if there are features not included and strongly needed...

Hi Lele and Terry,
i think Erwin and the other guys need the maps of DX Atlas for a better overview. DX Atlas has a World Map with includes Gridsquares in 2 or 4 digits. You can zoom in and out and if zoomed out you have an overviev over the whole worked worldwide grids ..... The use of Google Earth is a nice gimmick but the worl is round and in Google Earth you don´t have an overview over all worldwide worked grids so they use a globe and not a 2d map like DX Atlas doing.
Some loggers can interfacing to DX Atlas and i think for a lot of users it would be nice when L4O can work with DX Atlas too. It´s not only the grid square function, they have propagation maps included and prefix maps and things like this. I don´t use the software but a lot of guy´s need it. B.t.w. the software is
not free but i think the programmer (VE3NEA) can help if the question comes up "How to interfacing from L4O to DX Atlas ...."
I am not a programmer but maybe it´s an easy way without a massive codechange ...But if the DXA users have option to use L4O as the standard logger we will got some more L4O users
Only an idea

Dear Terry,
it's a nice feature but could be done better if I handle it up to now on the right way.
I found out that I can select QSO's from the list and plot it in Google Earth - that's nice.
I wish I could have a plot for a selected band and as well for a selected mode but I did not found a way to select ?

Hi Erwin,
you can select via the "Search Parameters"in the QSO Managers "QSO Archive" ..... The show´n qso´s with your setted parameters can be selected and you can plot it to Google Earth ...
As example:
Band equals 6m
Mode equals SSB
Search Button ..... Select all .... Plot to KML Button

You can!
Just use the search parameters button at the bottom of the "Show XML" window and search on band - The resulting filtered spots will be the only ones used for creating the KML file

Guys that is going to be the right way - TNX.
Sorry I'm new to Log4OM and wanna give it a try. Not knowing all features right now but exploring it.
I'm fine now with selection of filters and the result to plot squares.
I have some other points I can't figure out but I will open a new discussion in general.
TNX !
