Hello Tom, If you go to File | Preferences | Rep/Lab click on Default Report Format, and select the one you need. Save Changes and Exit. You will have what you want. Regards, Martin ZL1ANJ
[Dx4win] Printing On QSLs with HP 4000?
Eric, I redesigned my QSL cards so that I could print directly from DX4WIN onto QSL cards, rather than printing to Avery 5160 labels and then doing the peel-and-stick routine . My printer is an HP 4550N -- not sure what a 4000 is but perhaps they would use similar label definitions? I use the "custom2" label size and a definition that took quite a bit of finagling but finally got it to work properly in either landscape mode or portrait mode on the card. Landscape mode is better because then the QSO info, and the station callsign, is printed at the top of the card... which is where buro managers like to see it. This definition prints as may as 12 QSOs on one card, so if you work a DXpedition on many bands/modes you can (probably) get all the QSOs on one card. If you (or anybody) wants the specifics of the label layout I'd be happy to share off-line - send me an e-mail. The problem I have is that there is a bug in DX4WIN 5.03 in which only the first landscape label prints properly. So, until Paul/Steve deliver the fix for that problem I am still doing the peel-and-stick. I have a large run of buro cards I need to print and I was kinda' hoping that they would rescue me from the task... -larry K8UT - Original Message - From: "Eric Rosenberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, May 21, 2002 11:03 PM Subject: [Dx4win] Printing On QSLs with HP 4000? > Has anyone done this -- printing directly on a QSL card from an HP 4000 > printer? > > The offsets are weird, to put it mildly, and I can't quite figure out > what went > wrong! > > Thanks in advance, > > Eric W3DQ > Washington, DC > > > --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- > multipart/alternative > text/plain (text body -- kept) > text/html > The reason this message is shown is because the post was in HTML > or had an attachment.

[Dx4win] DX4WIN new users ( and old pros)
Hello everyone, Another Dayton has passed, and I have survived. The DX4WIN crew and I went real easy on the partying after hours and it made a big difference on how we felt at the end of the weekend. 5:30 AM,or so, comes real fast when you just went to bed a 1:00 AM. For those who purchased DX4WIN at Dayton and found the reflector, I would like to say 'thank you' and welcome to the group. The reflector is intended to be used by those interested in DX4WIN, for non official DX4WIN related discussions. Paul, being the moderator, may have different requirements, but all I ask of you is that you all 'play nice-nice' with each other. If you have a real issue with someone take it to private emails, not the reflector. I have no wish to see this valuable resource turn into the squabbling mess some of the other reflectors have become. FYI, as best as I can guess, there are about 1,000 users subscribed, but the number varies day to day, so there can be a lot of opinions and help available here. If you want to contact me regarding questions or other support issues concerning DX4WIN, then Email me directly, NOT 'Dear Steve, via the reflector'. I only check the reflector when and if I have a break from all the directly addressed messages and phone calls. The OFFICIAL SUPPORT Email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Do not wait until you become frustrated before you contact me. You don't like being frustrated and I don't like dealing with frustrated people, although I can understand frustration. All I do ask is that you try to find the answer yourself first, either by using the 'F1' key in the program or by reading the users guide, which all of you either purchased or printed, right? If you have comments you would like to share with the world outside of the reflector, I invite you to post them on eHam's products review page at http://www.eham.net/reviews/products/27. I do hope they are positive, but all are OK. If I can be of help, please contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] 73 de Steve, NR4M -No goats were harmed in the making of this 'cheese'.

[Dx4win] Questions
Hi, I am a new user as of Dayton where I purchased the program. 1. Can someone confirm the radio settings for the Kenwood TS 2000, I think I have it set up correctly but I want to make sure. 2. What is the best compatible economical printer to get for printing out the lables and summeries? Thanks, Eric N4HGZ
[Dx4win] Questions
I can only answer number 2. I use an HP Laser Jet 6L with very good results. I use the 8160 labels which measure 1" x 2 5/8". You get 30 labels per page. Good luck.

[Dx4win] Questions
Eric, Here is the radio setup I have been using with my TS-2000. 9600 Baud Poll Rate 500ms Max Tries 6 RTS High It was also necessary to modify the Kenwood 2000.rig file found in the DX4WIN RADIOS subdirectory. The changes were necessary in order to get the program to capture spots above 10 meters and to default to 9600 Baud. Here are the 3 lines to modify: FLOW= 5.00E+0001 FHIGH= 4.70E+0005 BAUD=9600 If your TS-2000 has the 1.2 GHz module you should set FHIGH accordingly. Let me know if you want the modified file and I will send it direct to your e-mail address. As for the printer, labels work well on both my obsolete Epson laser and HP 895Cse DeskJet. However, neither works printing directly to QSL cards in the landscape mode because of a program bug. 73, Dave, W0VX -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Eric Wilson Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 12:13 PM To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Questions Hi, I am a new user as of Dayton where I purchased the program. 1.

[Dx4win] Imported Time Offset
This has undoubtedly been covered earlier, but I found an old CT9 bin file that I had never imported into DX4WIN. This dates from Oct 2000. When I attempt to import into v5.03, it subtracts 7 hours from each QSO. Fortunately I had saved the log before importing (I feel so smart...) so I could un-import. Anyone know how to resolve this?
