How Awards works ?

Post by F6FLU »

Hello
Apparently I haven't figured out how it works yet.

following the ARRL CW contest this weekend, I imported my log from DXLog to Log4OM
Then I did:

1) Utilities / QSO Manager
2) I selected all my QSOs and
3) I launched the "Update info" function

Then I wanted to look at the Canadian Award(RAC)

All Canadian QSOs have the "State" field filled in with the name of the province concerned (for example "Ontario") but if I look at the "Award Refs" field by double clicking on the QSO, well there is no validated Award
RAC@ONTARIO is not validated

So I look at the detail "Utilities / Award manager"
the "Award type" is = REFERENCE
I don't know what REFERENCE stands for but I assume it is the reference name of the Provinces (Alberta; Manitoba etc...)
But what must be done so that :

If Country is CANADA
AND
the "STATE" field contains the name of a Canadian province
SO
The "Award Refs" is automatically filled in?

Again I think it's pretty simple but I still haven't figured it out; so if someone could detail the different steps for this Award to be automatically filled in?

Thanks in advance
