[Dx4win] bug for reports dxcc summary

2009-08-28 Thread Yann
 

Hello

I use the dx4win version 8.01

And now the reports DXCC summary don't work well

It's ok if the bands is all bands and the modes is all bands.

But If you change bands for example to 14MHz the result not change !

It's the same if you change mode for example to CW

 

Best 73

[Dx4win] R: wish list for 8.02 or later

2009-08-28 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Ciao Mel.
No, i did not asked to Simon.
HRD is going to implement a fine Log with the 5.0 release and I think he
should...or would be not so interested in interfacing to thirdy party
logging software.
We have to keep in mind that HRD is free while Dx4Win is not. 
The com emulator is something, I think, I have to ask to Paul. 
It is dx4win that can't compete with HRD for CAT. HRD respect the log is
much more further.
And I think we are talking about software. So I can imagine that with some
hardware interface problems should be solved but, because something  can be
done on the software as well, here is my request. 

About HRD log...well I imported my 36000 qsos and was not so slow. What
impressed to me is that all the time I ad one qso it takes so much time
that, if I am a runner on some frequency, I certainly run faster than my
log!
After all I can confirm that dx4win is just the best software logging
software. Because I use it since 1.07 release (December 1997) I would like
to see as better as it can and I do not want to miss it due the CAT problems
But year after year...new radio after new radio, can be clear that the
problem is getting better. Today most of the home Ham radio stations are
built if not on a computer base...around a computer and all new rigs have
simpler connectivity.

Hi Tibor.

AFIK #2 is being considered... it might take a while... bugs need to be 
fixed first.

re #1... I think you should ask Simon to implement that in HRD since his 
program would create that requirement with any logging program. (Maybe 
he did... did you ask him?) I use multiple virtual ports as implemented 
my Microham and that works perfectly. As for DX4Win users switching to 
HRD logging... not a chance. D4W users use it for a reason... very fast 
performance and the most accurate award tracking. Did you try Simons' 
log? It uses Microsoft Jet DB so is SLOW! Here is an example...

On my not so fast hamshack computer to import 25K QSOs...

DX4Win (proprietary DB)... about 1 minute.
Logic8 (Foxbase)... about 5 minutes.
DXLabs (MS Jet)... about 30 minutes.
HRD Log (MS Jet)... about 30 minutes

DX4Win to open... about 3 seconds
HRD Log to open... about 30 seconds... that's a looong time when you are 
waiting ;-)

To be fair... I am sure HRD will get faster... Simon is an amazing 
programmer... but he can't make the MS Jet DB go any faster... I suspect 
Microsoft designed it that way to push people to it's SQL server ;) I 
believe he supports connections to other databases such as mySQL but 
that is starting to get complicated for the average user.

Also, using MS Jet DB does make it much easier to access your data... 
for example... you have almost unlimited ability to make adjustments or 
corrections to your log if you are familiar with ACCESS.

Nonetheless, you can't beat D4W for speed.

 Ok, i don't know if it is appropriate at this time to make a post like
this.
 
  
 
 Any way: I would like to ask a pair of things to Paul.
 
  
 
 1)   we can understand that CAT is a very complicated matter. Dx4win
do
 that in a very primitive manner. But. now that dx4win has the band map
 should be very interesting to run connected to the radio. Problem is that
 many of us are using dedicated CAT software like HRD or, for the TS2000,
the
 ARCP2000. Many of use have more than 2.3 radio connected. The only way to
 run dx4win together with such these software is a com emulator. I tried a
 number of them but they show some problem with dx4win. Now, because dx4win
 will be not a CAT program but it is simply the best logging software
around
 should be a nice feature if, dx4win itself provides  a virtual com system,
 good for itself and good for us running a multitasking system. Should be a
 nice touch now that the best cat program around (HRD) is going to
implement
 a logging  software by itself (HRD). Some people should be driven to
migrate
 from dx4win to HRD log.  
 
  
 
 2)   This is much more simple. I ham an avid cluster user. All the
time
 that I connect to my node I do have a number of operations that should be
 easy to implement like a macro or something like that. I mean that when I
 start dx4win, my log should be connected directly to my node and should
 clean all the previous spots in its windows. At the contrary they are all
 manual opr.
 
  
 
 Holidays are at the end.. Contest season is back to the door and seems
that
 propagation is going to do a better job than last year.
 
 73 and good dx

The microHAM devices already have multiple virtual COM Ports.  I use 
DX4WIN and WriteLog together on two different virtual COM ports with one 
radio.

I don't think this is something that Paul should be spending time on. 
It's a hardware issue, HRD should be supporting this, not DX4WIN.

Re: [Dx4win] ZK2V

2009-08-28 Thread Andy Hewitt
Jim,

I knew you would have the SOLUTION! That worked FB! I put a date in of 
01-01-2009 and actually got 103 confirmations from qsos, I suppose that had
been confirmed after subsequent downloads. I suppose this is an exercise
that one should do from time to time as I have also myself been adding
really old qsos from my paper log to DX4Win and uploading those from time to
time. The stations I worked obviously would not get those if they did not go
back a while occasionally when doing downloads.

Thank you very much

LoTW always starts downloading from the LAST day you downloaded, so it 
only has new confirmations.

Try downloading lotwreport.adi again, but this time with a really old 
starting date, and see if the ZK2V QSOs are found in the lotwreport.adi 
file.  THEN import LoTW into DX4WIN using duplicate QSO sets Upl Conf 
flag.

 Jim,
 Thanks.

 I am still using version 7.06 of DX4Win.

 I cannot be sure that it was included in a download as the most recent
 download replaced the previous one in the SAVE folder. If it was not
 included I cannot think why not as Chris uploaded his logs to LoTW within
a
 day or so of finishing his stint on ZK2 and I saw then that I had the
 relevant crosses in the matrix.

 Are you 100% sure that ZK2V was in the ADIF file you downloaded from LoTW?

 What version of DX4WIN are you using?

 If version 8, in your DXCC award preferences, are both QSL and LoTW

I'm glad it worked for you Andy.

One has to keep in mind that when you download from LoTW, you get only
the new confirmations since the last time you downloaded (if you pick,
the default starting date).  This has nothing to do with the date of
the QSO, but rather the date when the man behind the curtain matches
up the QSO data on both sides.  If I download on 12 August, the next
time I download, LoTW will automatically START with QSOs that have
been confirmed starting on 12 August, no earlier.  So the downloads
are incremental.  You can always change the download start date to
something earlier if you want to get a more complete report.  I always
name the lotwreport.adi file with the date I downloaded it (i.e.
lotwreport_2009-08-12.adi).

[Dx4win] R: R: wish list for 8.02 or later

2009-08-28 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Mel i hope to be understood.
I think that dx4win is great. I wrote in my previous messages that for me
there is only dx4win as a logging software.
All the time I download a new logging software (believe me I have made it
tenth of time) I am reassured by myself that no other software even come
close to our dx4win.
I well understand that Paul is not going to be rich with dx4win even if I
suppose there should be some thousands of licences running around out there.
Any way I am not interested in Paul's pocket affair: if he is still
developing dx4win or he enjoy doing that or he can earn enough money for
himself to be happy or both of them.
We are just talking about possible way to develope our favourite sw and just
talking about my  - personal - wish list. It is the very first time that I
ask something for dx4win but I think that I am not alone about that. 
Because dx4win is a logging software and not a CAT I understand  that at
this time it is gonna be some of very tedious to start a CAT develop.
But because there are some CAT software (I mentioned HRD but it is not
alone: as I said kenwood owners are proud of their proprietary CAT program:
they are simply the best even respect to HRD) I think should be much better
to give the chance to dx4win owner to run at the same time 2 software on the
same com in order to CAT at 100% the radio and in order to enjoy the benefit
coming from either software.
I know that Simon is 1) a great Ham 2) is a great software developer BUT it
is not the only one and all the time a CAT software take live we should go
to the developer asking for that.
No, sorry, this is something related to dx4win.
Instead of spending time for a serious CAT interface, in MY opinion should
be much more interesting to find the way to give the chance of choice the
preferred CAT sw running at the same time with dx4win.

 We have to keep in mind that HRD is free while Dx4Win is not.

It makes some money... but Paul has to pay for his development tools and 
every hour he spends on DX4Win is an hour he could be spending doing 
contract work at typically $50-$100 per hour depending on where he

I agree if speed and accuracy are the most important criteria. (they are 
for me). There are other programs with many more... and useful... features.

BTW, go to the EQSL site and look at the pages on logging software and 
note the number of uploads based on software. DX4Win is ranked first 
with nearly 8 million QSOs uploaded. The only one close is Logger32 but 
that is free software (and you know about Hams and their legendary 
reluctance to open their wallet). Bear in mind that DX4Win, until 
recently, wasn't the easiest software to use with eQSL!

 Because I use it since 1.07 release (December 1997) I would like
 to see as better as it can and I do not want to miss it due the CAT

Paul needs to do a bit of work on CAT... maybe he will do it. But if I 
were in his situation I wouldn't embark on any new features until all 
the old ones are working first.

 But year after year...new radio after new radio, can be clear that the
 problem is getting better. Today most of the home Ham radio stations are
 built if not on a computer base...around a computer and all new rigs have

Mel,
happy to know that Paul is aware of the matter.
What you write is exactly what I founded. Yes, dx4win runs ok on VSPE but if
it is the only sw direct to that com.
You say about CI-V bus...well, the problem is shown even with my kenwood
ts2000x regardless to the speed: I tried from 4800 to 57600 and it is always
the same.
I mean... there is something to be fix not only for the Icom but for Kenwood

OK Tibor... I tried out VSPE and it works perfectly... but DX4Win 
doesn't! It works as long as DX4Win is the only program polling, but if 
you generate traffic by trying to control the radio the DX4Win driver 
has issues... it is unable to handle traffic and collisions on the CI-V 
bus. This is a problem that Paul is aware of... and I hope he will 
address it eventually by improving the Icom interface.

This is the correct solution to your problem. Adding virtual COM ports 
to DX4Win is not because, even if Paul did this, it still wouldn't work 
without fixing the Icom serial interface.

 We are just talking about possible way to develope our favourite sw and
 just
 talking about my  - personal - wish list. It is the very first time that
I
 ask something for dx4win but I think that I am not alone about that. 
 Because dx4win is a logging software and not a CAT I understand  that at
 this time it is gonna be some of very tedious to start a CAT develop.
 But because there are some CAT software (I mentioned HRD but it is not
 alone: as I said kenwood owners are proud of their proprietary CAT
 program:
 they are simply the best even respect to HRD) I think should be much
 better
 to give the chance to dx4win owner to run at the same time 2 software on
 the
 same com in order to CAT at 100% the radio and in order to enjoy the
 benefit
 coming from either software.
 I know that Simon is 1) a great Ham 2) is a great software developer BUT
 it
 is not the only one and all the time a CAT software take live we should
go
 to the developer asking for that.
 No, sorry, this is something related to dx4win.
 Instead of spending time for a serious CAT interface, in MY opinion
should
 be much more interesting to find the way to give the chance of choice the
 preferred CAT sw running at the same time with dx4win.

I've updated the release notes again for DX4WIN.CTY #66:

I believe I've fixed all the problems reported to me since the release
of DX4WIN 8.01.  If I missed anyone, please send me the information
again.

Please let me know if there are any other changes needed.  I will
release this file the weekend of September 5/6 (Labor Day weekend in
USA, unofficial end of summer).

Thanks  73 - Jim AD1C

[Dx4win] Problem with F2 logic.

2009-08-28 Thread Mel
If Set QSL date to today when confirming is checked in F2 preferences.

When you press F2 to confirm a QSO it will pop up a dialog
QSL was already sent. Mark again? even though the QSO was never QSLed. 
What is even more troubling is: if you reply  No then the QSO 
indicates a QSL was sent even though it never was. It is as if the QSL 
date is set to the current date prior to checking if it was already sent.

I discovered this by accident as I didn't intend to have this box checked.

VE2DC, Mel.
