QSL LABELS

Hi all
I help REF sort incoming QSL cards, so I know how important it is to have a readable label.
3 comments :
1/ is it possible to have the QSL manager appear in big letters, as this is an important info for QSL sorters ?
2/ Is it possible to have 1 overall comment line, instead of 1 line per QSO ?
3/ Is it possible to get rid of the country name and number, as nobody uses that ?

Thank you and best 73

I apologise for the slow response but I have been in hospital and slowly catching up.

All sensible suggestions and I will move this thread to Feature suggestions where it will be used as we continue development.

Thank you for your input and once again please accept my apologies

I will check if i've enough space, but it shouldn't be a problem

Yes, if you have one QSO per label. But what if you have multiple QSO with different labels?

Those info are used by QSL sorters when a QSL manager is not set... and in any case, it's used by QSL sorters to easily identify destinations

Hello Daniele
1/ That would be great

2/ Good point.. If there are more than 1 labels, the comment will be repeated on each label I imagine. Ideally, one time would be enough on the last label, but not sure if this would be easily programmable...

3/ I may be wrong, but QSL sorters know which country is related to a callsign. Or maybe the country name would be enough ?
Not sure how it works in other countries, but here in France, the sender is supposed to sort cards per country of destination, and clearly mark them.

Thanks + 73
Paul
