It seems that udp export/import is the new way to go between ham applications. Clublog has announced livestreaming some days ago. See https://clublog.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/3000092445-using-club-log-live-streams for details. Some authors wrote small applications which read the log via udp and upload in real time the qsos in clublog's livestreaming. Until now dx4win does not support livestreaming. See

I would like to request that Paul add UDP broadcast and import support
within DX4WIN so that we can interface WSJT-X to DX4WIN like it now can be
done with N1MM+.  I operated the ARRL VHF contest this weekend and had N1MM
and WSJT-X working together.  Every time I made a FT8 contact in WSJT-X, the
contact was automatically added in N1MM.  This allowed me to keep track of
dupes and scoring in real time.  Everything worked very seamlessly.  Both
programs actually exchanged information back and forth via the UDP
broadcasts.

We need the same capability in DX4WIN.  I have made over 7,500 FT8 and FT4
contacts over the past two summers.  Both modes are becoming increasingly
critical for weak signal DXing on 160 meters and 6 meters especially.
Although I have added to my DXCC band totals using FT8 on several of the
other bands as well.  It is not very handy to have to manually import the
adi logfile from WSJT-X into DX4WIN.  There are times in the heat of the
moment that you need the contacts added to DX4WIN but you do not have time
to stop and do the import.  This happened to me this summer in the middle of
a major opening into EU on 6 meters when I had a screen full of G stations
calling me.  Adding the WSJT-X contacts automatically and in real time helps
be to verify call signs, ensure the QSOs are valid and quickly report spots
on the cluster.  It also helps me to see when I have worked a new country
and to look up more info about a station via the QRZ.COM XML interface.

Paul, is there any reason that you do not think it is a good idea to support
the importing of QSOs via UDP broadcasts?  I wonder what other users think.
Any comments?

So many other programs support UDP, I am wondering if there is some
technical reason that DX4WIN cannot support it?

73,

Dave, N4QS
