eQSL
Electronic QSLing using eqsl.cc is great fun, and can provide instant confirmation of a contact. For more information see QSLing for the 21st century.
KComm supports eQSLing in real time, and can send an automatic eQSL at the same time as a contact is saved to the log book. To take advantage of this, provide the eQSL settings.
- eQSL username - enter your eQSL login name (callsign).
- eQSL password - enter your eQSL password.
- Auto eQSL - choose from these options:
No - do not automatically eQSL each contact;
Yes - automatically eQSL each contact;
Ask - ask if eQSL should be sent on logging each contact;
Smart - automatically eQSL first contact on band/mode, otherwise ask.
Real-time eQSLing is only practical if you have a permanent connection to the Internet. If you have a broadband connection then it is usually so fast that you won't notice it happening. Occasionally the eQSL server will be slow, which will freeze up the program for a while, so during a contest or pile-up operation you may prefer to disable this option and upload your contacts as a batch, using an ADIF file, at the end of the contest.
