At least as of yesterday, fulllist.xml has NOT been updated with the
new Curacao/SA-099 yet.  Until this happens, you not enter the "Island
name" for IOTA SA-099

Hi Dick:

 From what I have been told logs can be uploaded but since no
DXpedition certificates will be issued right away the QSOs will sit
there waiting for something to match to. Once they get their
certificate, then upload the logs all should fall into place.

I realize we can't submit any of the new PJ entities for DXCC credit
until Jan 1, but when will LOTW be set to accept them without bouncing?

If you have a previous QSO in your log with PJ2T, that has IOTA
SA-006, the new QSOs will *also* inherit the previous IOTA number.
Once all your "new" PJ2T QSOs are corrected to SA-099, then any new
ones will get the correct IOTA.

This is true of ANY call that has been used before from a different IOTA.

[Dx4win] DX4WIN.CTY Release #86 - 15 October 2010

2010-10-15 Thread Jim Reisert AD1C
DX4WIN.CTY Release #86 is now available from:

http://www.country-files.com/dx4win/

You can read the release notes at:

http://www.country-files.com/dx4win/release.shtml

You can use this script to update the file:

http://dx4win.ad1c.us/update.htm

It is important to get this update because the ADIF country codes for 
the new PJ entities have now been assigned.  You must update both 
DX4WIN.CTY and adif.pmp - follow the Installation link on the web page 
above.  If you use the update script, both files will be updated.

This will probably be the last update until the first week of November.

No Jim; I didn’t. 

All is OK after Andy G3SVD's referral to a previous post; however, I just
tried what you asked by putting PJ2T in the window;  then all of the PJ4's
light up like a Christmas tree too !

I can live with this now Jim; thanks

Do you have the PJ prefix in the Callsign Alert?

Do you have "Alert if not confirmed" checked?

Kostas is right.  If I order the list by DOK number, then there is no
way to sort "the other way", i.e. by town.  The way it is now, you can
sort either way.

I am still waiting to hear what the ADIF country codes are.  The ones
in DX4WIN are provisional.  That's why I don't recommend uploading
logs at this time.

Hi Jim,

Further to the posts on colours for DX Spots; I too seem to see erratic
behaviour on PJ spots; with quite a few appearing in yellow despite the fact
that I have worked the same station on the same band/mode already !  I have
the latest country file and ADIF.PMP installed.

 

By example, PJ5/AA4NC was on 80m this am (3510 I think); who showed in
yellow; though I have already worked him on CW

PJ2T is now on 10101 ; and shows in yellow - new band countries normally
show in red as stud; and I can see some new band slots in red for non-PJ)

I couldn't get my new entities to show in Club Log (FWIW !!);   and had to

Re: [Dx4win] Cluster disconnect question

2010-10-15 Thread Rick Murphy
Yup, DX4WIN is connecting to 'localhost:7300' and that's what's dropping
after a day or so. There doesn't seem to be any real pattern to it,
unfortunately. (If it happened every 12 hours or something I'd suspect my
antivirus, for example.)

I've moved it from 'localhost:' to '1.2.3.4:7300' using the system's local
IP. If that doesn't make it better, I'll move CC User to a different
computer to see if it gets any better.
It is pretty strange - this same setup used to be as solid as a rock, which
is why it's not likely to be DX4WIN's fault.

As far as other comments go - I'm not telling DX4WIN to connect directly to
a cluster node. If you're doing that and it's periodically disconnecting
you, that could be caused by your Internet router or just because the
Internet burped. You can try turning on the keepalive that Jim referred to,
or do what I do and install VE7CC's CC User since it manages the cluster
connection for me. If the node drops me or the Internet breaks, CC User will
reconnect when the node comes back.
