Subject: Re: [Dx4win] any upgrades?
Hi John,you hit the nail on the head. I am 78 years old and I have been using Dx4Win ever since version 6.XX. The last thing I need is a big learning curve with a program that may not be as good as Dx4Win when I finally figure it out. With a little work you will find out that Dx4Win will do more things than you can imagine. I wouldn't give up Dx4Win if someone paid me. When ever a new ham joins our radio club I suggest Dx4Win for their logging. They are all happy because is is very easy to get started using it. As time goes on one can add more and more knowledge of the use of the many features. 73 Bruce WD4LBR -------Original Message------- From: John, K9EL Date: 3/29/2023 7:35:26 PM To: 'Courtney Judd'; 'Dx4win' Subject: Re: [Dx4win] any upgrades? I believe most DX4Win users who also operate FT8 would like full integration. Most likely that would require adding UDP communication and Paul says that is not likely to happen, at least not anytime soon. Fortunately, it is not difficult to add FT8 QSOs to DX4Win. I create a shortcut to the WSJT-X (or JTDX) .adi file. I import that file and it imports very quickly. Not ideal, but very easy. If you need a logging program with real time uploads to Club Log, LOTW, full integration with other software and other fun things, DX Labs software may be your choice. But the learning curve is steep and the number of settings and options is significant. DX4Win is very straight forward and so easy to use. I want to focus on making QSOs, not spending tons of time on the logging program.

I am just sorta on the fence here now since I finally have made the jump to FT8 and just wondering if DX4WIN is going to be upgraded to handle WSJT-X like it does with MMTTY. I have been using DX4WIN for many years and now have 160K+ q's in the log. There are several minor changes I would like to see but integration of WSJT-X is one that I would like to see. So while I have been looking at all the windows logging programs now available I don't really want to move away from DX4WIN if something is in the pipeline. If nothing coming then I guess I'll be looking at other options.
