When you move the mouse over the field to collect data from the server side ,  appears to us as a descriptive field for download  data button  For example, as shown below

For others buttons suitable description appears. Quite important is the button

In this button we have a possibility to the  after selecting the row or rows replacing uncertain data from other servers with new more certain data from another server instance with QRZ COM. If we want to not replace existing QTH select this field.     Then we should download from the server HAMQTH.com available data for amateur radio station. This server does not limit the number of downloads. Press the button   Download data for all rows .

 

appearance of the screen at the time of downloading data from the server

We can still arise the question of correcting  data in the field  ZIP or QTH. Doing so would improve the Polish diacritics to replace characters without stalks. ie  only ASCI characters. Such a process has forced the proceedings that AWARD_SECRETARY can be used  by foreign stations - and certainly in a different environment than the Polish  . Polish Windows characters will be  be appeared in the form of "bushes". It is also important which characters will use MYSQL

 

Any field from table can be edited by double-clicking the mouse in the field.

The program behaves so that way that leaves the selected fields such selected  rows for which no data. In our case, the lack of data for 580 rows. So we can choice sewer DXWATCH.COM and try to download it for missing data rows.

Choice another sever DXWATCH.COM

If for some reason the data are empty - ie the lack of data QTH or this data will be incorrect then we can choose a selection QSO to  download proper  data from server QRZ.COM

then SELECT the  QSO for download

Select QSO  for download data from more sure serwera's QRZ.com

Why almost? . Well, in Poland there are many places (municipality)  with the same name. To make the job more difficult  one ZIP code can be assigned to a few municipality or  villages .Therefore, in such cases, you will be prompted on the screen to make a choice. Generation of the data is done by pressing the button

The case of the existence of many towns that meet the condition.  You should make a choice. In the event that we do not know what to choose select Cancel (anuluj)
