[Dx4win] CW Key Booard Operation
I tried to use the function keys this weekend to call CQ, and set up a simple exchange buffer. @ is supposed (?) to send the callsign, but all DX4WIN sent was "?" instead. Did something change, are the examples wrong? Using 5.03. - Jim -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.com
[Dx4win] External Program Callsign Address Lookup
First, I think the bat file and manager.res file should be in the DX4Wxxx\Extdata folder. Works mostly for me, although having some trouble on Windows XP Home. I am using this: This file is called QSL.BAT ECHO OFF GOLIST.EXE %1>TMPQSL1.TXT FGREP.COM %1 WWHAM.TXT>TMPQSL2.TXT COPY TMPQSL*.TXT MANAGER.RES FGREP is just a text search tool which outputs any line with a matching search argument. F3 calls QSL.BAT -- the name and path is set under File | Preferences | Ext Data | QSL Manager Search | Executable Program. Your program will only output the last line since manager.res is only called once. You can copy | append the lines and output all to manager.res. 73, John, K2CIB >From: "Goody" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: >Date: Sat, 4 May 2002 22:16:19 -0400 >Subject: [Dx4win] External Program Callsign Address Lookup > >I'm going to attempt to write a program to lookup addresses for DX4WIN.

[Dx4win] Multiple QSL managers for different modes on same callsign
We didn't chase every band/mode combination, so we didn't need such exhaustive record keeping. I recall having 3 DXCC lists, one for each mode. A check mark next to the country meant worked, and if/when I got a card, it was crossed off.

[Dx4win] Multiple QSL managers for different modes on same callsign
The "notes for QSO" box never gets seen again after the QSO is entered in the log unless you go back and select that particular QSO for review! When printing QSL labels, if the QSO's aren't segregated by the manager/mode, multiple QSO's will print on the same label while they need to go to different managers! Besides, some people, like myself, rarely send any QSL's out direct to managers, but use a service, such as WF5E provides. At this point, I am in no hurry for any QSL's as they are only various band and mode "fillers" for me. I now have over 60,000 QSL cards over the past 41 years in my files representing #1 DXCC Honor Roll, Mixed, Phone, and CW (since 1994) but I still QSL 100%. If you are just a casual operator, paper logs and manual QSL'ing could still work fine for you. I'm sure there are many others who can also appreciate the benefits of computerized logging and accurate QSL label printing. Besides the system I described in my original message, time consuming manual QSL'ing would be the only other option of getting the right QSO's to the right manager in this particular case. 73, -=Rog-K9RB=- - Original Message - From: Shelby Summerville <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 11:08 AM Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Multiple QSL managers for different modes on same callsign > Dang..have y'all become so spoiled with the automation of logging, that > y'all have forgotten what was done using "paper logs"?

Gentlemen, I am a new user of Dx4win Ver. 5.03 and I need some help in set of the Packet window. Specifically opening Comport 4 on the Packet 1 Window. On all other programs, Radio etc. I have no problem opening Comport 4, however when I attempt to open Comport 4 on Packet 1, nothing happens. When I select Comport 2, the Packet window opens, however no information is transmitted. Does anyone have any suggestions?? Thank you for your help. Ron, N6PWW

I had thought of the notes field as a couple of others mentioned, but that wouldn't make the labels print properly. Setting the start and stop dates wouldn't work either because some of the CW and SSB contacts are on the same day. Presumably the K1B QSL manager won't object to seeing a "/SSB" after the callsign. I doubt seriously they keep the cards anyway. In fact, I THINK it was KU9C who said just to stick the labels on a piece of paper and send that to him.

Comment made in an earlier thread: > Besides, some people, like myself, rarely send any QSL's out direct to > managers, but use a service, such as WF5E provides. Just a reminder that, according to the WF5E QSL Service web site, YT1AD (one of the K1B managers) does not accept cards via the WF5E QSL Service. I suspect frequent users and the original author know this, but trying to save some folks who didn't know some delay and disappointment. This is not a commentary on YT1AD... he is free to reply to cards any way he wishes. Further info on Les' service can be found at: http://www.qsl.net/wf5e/ It's a great way to send cards. Larry Wi5A

Actually, many of us did. I used the 5BDXCC sheets that Cuschcraft used to give out in Dayton every year. I color coded SSB qsos red, cw qsos blue, and a black dot indicated when it was confirmed. 5BDXCC all on one 11x14 sheet of paper with 3 'Flair' pens. Very low-tech. It was all done on paper - and - imagine this - much of the details were by memory! It was not uncommon for people to remember facts like who the QSL manager was for an operation - even two of them - one per mode like for this K1B operation. 73, Bob N5NJ QCWA, DXCC - Original Message - From: "Barry " <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Bob Naumann - N5NJ" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 10:33 AM Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Multiple QSL managers for different modes on same callsign > We didn't chase every band/mode combination, so we didn't need such > exhaustive record keeping.

It will help you remember, but not the program. The automated manager function would not work. This is not a problem if you handle these cards manually, The correct manager will not print on the label. I suppose the absolute best way to handle it is with multiple entries is the manager file with appropriate to your log start & stop dates. That way the right manager's call would be printed.

[Dx4win] CW Keyboard question
Mike, This is true for most modern radios - aside from the 1/8" size of the plug although I think the FT-100 and IC706 uses a 1/8" stereo as well. All Yaesu's, Icom's, Kenwood's use a stereo connector now so that the jack can be used for both a paddle input to the built-in keyer or for a straight key. A notable exception is the Kenwood 950SDX that has an unusual provision for straight key (or computer interface) which is paired with the remote keypad jack which is also 1/8" stereo. This allows you to use the built-in keyer along with an external device. 73, Bob N5NJ - Original Message - From: "Mike Rioux" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Saturday, May 04, 2002 8:59 PM Subject: RE: [Dx4win] CW Keyboard question > Thanks for all the responses!

For K1B, you have to QSL to one manager for SSB QSO's and another one with a different address for all other modes. How do you get DX4WIN to accept different QSL managers for the same call under different modes? If I try to change QSO, it wants to change all of them. - David, W4HPW -- "Flying is of the Spirit.
