My thanks to everyone that responded (directly) to my post regarding the interlinking of DX Telnet and DX4WIN. Given the replies came directly to me and not via the reflector, others wouldn't have the benefit of your wisdom and suggestions.
In a nutshell the problem is: I'd like to run DX TELNET and link it to DX4WIN for dx spots? By this I mean using the DX4WIN utility within DX TELNET for porting spots to DX4WIN. While all your response eluded to how well the process works (and I believe you) the one element none of you mentioned was the fact that DX Telnet apparently does not support long file names and I have DX Telnet nested under the <Program Files> folder in its own sub-directory. So I have correctly the path description in <Configuration | Links> and set up everything exactly like the wonderful description shown on http://www.qsl.net/wa9als/dxtelnet.htm. Unfortunately the process still does not work. Once I set up everything and have the 3 utility programs launched I get the following error message from DX Telnet: The error message box is titled DX-Telnet (dxc.ve7cc.net... my node name) Path not found Check that DXHunter link parameters are correct The link to DXHunter is now disabled I have not done any configuration within DX Hunter -- in fact I've never run the program. It doesn't even appear to be part of the current v5.1 download of DX Telnet. But I have it installed in the c:\dxhunter directory. I'm on a cable modem and can't see the tie in with the DX Hunter program. If someone out can explain --- please do so. Any suggestions would be appreciated. 73 de Paul, VE7AVV StoneyGround Station -|<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>|- "All email from this address is checked by Norton AntiVirus 2002"
