Download N1MM. Export your DX4WIN log to ADIF. Import it into N1MM. You may need to modify the fields in the ADIF file to get it to read your multipliers. Then generate Cabrillo. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us
[Dx4win] 160 contest submissions from DX4WIN
Mark, I don't think you had any reply. What I had done for a local ham friend that didn't have a contest log, was he would send me an ADIF file of his contest log from DX4WIN and I would import it into WriteLog, produce a cabrillo file and email it back to him to submit. He now has WriteLog himself, which is a much better idea but it filled the gap for a while. So if you have someone who can do that for you that is one way about it. 73 John ZL1BYZ. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Sent: Sunday, 26 February 2006 12:25 p.m. To: DX4WIN List Server Subject: [Dx4win] 160 contest submissions from DX4WIN well I just got on to give out a few Q's this weekend, but now am up to over a hundred contacts, so what's a good way to score and submit from DX4WIN?

[Dx4win] Announce DX Question...another issue
I have observed that if one sends a spot and the spotted station's frequency is below the first KHz of the band bottom, the spot is not displayed on the cluster. If I skew the station's frequency so it reads out at 1.0 KHZ or higher above band bottom, the spot is displayed. At least I have observed this quirk on 40M CW using both an Orion and FTKMP. I haven't checked it on other bands or the top edge of the band. I wonder if anyone else has noticed this? 73, Joe K2XX Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: > At 10:53 AM 2/25/2006, Ed Roberts wrote: > >> Receiving the spots in Dx4win works just fine.

DX4WIN captures the spot you send out and the one it gets back from the cluster, but only keeps the LATEST spot. If your PC clock is fast, or your cluster clock is slow, then it will keep the spot you sent out, not the spot that people see on the cluster. That particular spot will not have the SPOTTER callsign embedded in it, it's of the format: DX AD1C 14000.3 i.e. it has not been reformatted by the cluster. Does this make sense? That's why it's important to keep your PC clock accurate, and the sysop of the node you connect to to keep his PC clock accurate. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us
[Dx4win] Announce DX Question
Jim & Larry--thanks for the responses! I am connected to K2UT---FRC node in Medford NJ usually---It is near to my QTH. I connect using TCP/IP protocol (com port), i.e. the internet. Receiving the spots in Dx4win works just fine. When I see the spot I have just announced, using 'Announce Dx' from Dx4win it always shows up in the remark column appended/following the remark without a spacewith the spotter column left blank. I have tried other packet nodes in the past, with the same result! funny business---huh?

This sounds like a problem with your cluster node, not the program. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us
