There aren't many 60m spots, but I noticed that when one does come in, I get an alert showing it is needed even if already confirmed. See attached pics.

Hi Allen--

Check the award and subaward fields to make sure it is not spotting a subaward that you actually need.

Also, pse download and install the 9.20.3 update again.

Tnx & 73,

Hi Dennis,

I am already using 9.20.3. I don't think it is spotting a subaward... This problem only seems to happen with 60m spots. If it happens again, I'll let you know.

If its any help, looking at the Spot Log and zooming in to see the columns you can see for the 60M spot of K0WIU it was not spotted for any subaward, but was for Award: Continent, Value: NA, Description: North America. So maybe none of your confirmed North American 60m QSO's have an NA entry for the continent?? Data was not red and if any other category was needed there would be additional line entries for each. Just a total guess and may be too simple but for what its worth....

Highly unlikely that I don't have NA confirmed on 60m yet, with all the 60m QSOs I've made. I will d/l the latest version again and see if it happens again.

There is a box in one of the windows (forgot which one now) that allows credit for LoTW confirmations. It was not checked for 60m. I checked it and I think that should fix the problem.
