The DX4WIN country file identifies it as Antarctica, CE9. If you are lucky enough to work this one, it will be fixed in the next country file release in early March. I expect that the call may be used from Antarctica later in the trip. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C/Ø, , http://www.ad1c.us __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

Dennis, if it came up as Falklands, then your country file is out of date. http://www.country-files.com/dx4win/ 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C/Ø, , http://www.ad1c.us __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Dx4win] VP8DLM = South Shetlands
Now that you mention it. Your right, I haven't updated my country files since I got rev 7.xx a year or so ago... I down loaded the file but have not installed it. Thanks for the heads up Jim.

[Dx4win] RTTY-related Question
Good afternoon. I have a RTTY-related request for help. I normally only use RTTY in contests and use N1MM as my logging software, and I never use the spotting cluster in RTTY contests. That having been said, this past two weeks I have been desperately trying to work K5D on as many bands and modes as possible. My problem is this. When I click on a spot in DX4Win, my rig (Kenwood TS-850s) moves to the correct frequency (no problem) but, the rig gets set to FSK mode instead of LSB, which is required for RTTY when using sound-card technology to generate the code. In FSK mode I can copy the other station's transmission just fine, but, when I try to transmit myself, the rig does not get keyed and so no characters are sent. Now, if I switch my rig to LSB I find that I must shift a few hundred kHz in order to find that signal again (a major problem when there are many stations on the band in the immediate area) and in so doing, DX4Win sets the mode in the program for this QSO to SSB instead of RTTY. My question is this - is there any way within DX4Win (Preferences Section) to direct MTTY key the radio, even though it is in FSK mode? Or, is there some other solution, like directing the radio to go to LSB instead of FSK mode when a station working RTTY is spotted? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Re: [Dx4win] RTTY-related Question
Hi Howard, You should first setup the mmtty interface that it works the way you like, This can be done in options under setup MMTTY, Changing rtty settings in the kenwood ts850-950 rigfile with a text editor can Solve the problem with fsk and lsb, but the qso will be saved like SSB not rtty The easiest way is to make a small interface like can be seen on my webpage Or in the dx4win manual that is working in FSK.

[Dx4win] changing award flags
I'm trying to clear my DXCC Mixed Submit flags by going to Reports > Change Award Flags > DXCC Mixed > Clear Submitted. I go back in and check each call and verify the Sub has been removed and it seemed to work however as soon as I call up the DXCC Submissions Report, it resets the flags back to submitted? Why is this happening? I'm on version 7.02.02.

[Dx4win] Downloading from LOTW - DXCC credits into my Dx4win file
I am current using Dx4win version 7.01 ( not sure if this is the latest). I would like to download my current confirmed DXCC file through LOTW and then upload into Dx4win. I would appreciate any suggestions and apologize if this has been covered recently on the reflector. The second part of my question - If I already have confirmed boxes checked in Dx4win, how does the new upload handle this?

You cleared the flags, then did a DXCC submission, which is supposed to set the flags again (so you can submit the QSOs for DXCC). What did you *expect* to happen? 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C/Ø, , http://www.ad1c.us __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
