Hi all I was a very happy user of DX4WIN until I started on satellites 4 years ago, the satellite database is not updated anymore and I had a good response of the developer was that DX4WIN is not profitable so it lost his interest maintaining it updated.
I moved to another logging program to handle my 100000 qsos and all my stats not a big as Guy's ones but not too bad for 28 years of ham radio. I don't understand why automate a program is a sin. Do you work FT8??? Yes the computer makes the QSO for you!!!!!!! Wow mind blowing!!!!! I love DX4WIN but now it doesn't cover my needings... Automate is not one of them but there are more..... What a pity!!!!! 73 Rick El lun, 20 nov 2023, 20:28, ON4AOI via DX4WIN <dx4win@mailman.qth.net> escribió: > Gents, > What are we? > Radio operators, technicians or just a bunch of let the computer do it all > for you? > > In my opinion the manual up/download is the only correct way to do it not > automatically. > Why is simple b4 I upload I check always for mistakes.
