<qsl_rcvd:1>I

[ik2rmz]

Hi,

the most frequent error I found on QSLs concerns the <qsl_rcvd:1> tag.
Some hams don't seem to care and the result is confusing for the recipients of cards.
Actually, it's not the hams that don't care, it's the software that does something
which is not necessarily intended.

What means <qsl_rcvd:1>I ?
It's supposed to be neither PSE QSL nor TNX QSL....
However, the GlobalQSL software seem to translate it as PSE QSL

Would it be possible NOT to set a default in case <qsl_rcvd:1> is not provided
or in case it is set to I?

If you could do this the recipients could take PSE QSL more seriously.

Hi Martin !
The "I" in the qsl_rcvd field meens "Ignore" .
Please look at http://www.adif.org/adif223.htm, the official adif site.
Some hams upload the adif files with this " I" in this field and our system prints the "Pse qsl" in this case.
It is allways better to receive a card than not to receive one...hi.
