Jim's explanation of DX4WIN Data Protection Strategies should be required reading for DX4WIN users.
I have suggested in the past that DX4WIN add an option that when set would cause DX4WIN to save (in the DXL file) each QSO after it is entered without any additional user manual input. I have not seen a response from the developers of DX4WIN as to their position on this. The value would be that you know your QSO is in the DXL file immediately. There are no complexities of it being somewhere else. For those who consider this a performance issue, the option could be left off. What do other users think about the value of adding this option? 73, Paul K5ESW > On 2/17/2008 7:56 PM, Glen and Pam wrote: > > > I will ask again....IS there a way to make this logging > > program write to the hard after each contact? > > You can type ALT-S after each QSO.
