 I was curious and thought I should check my eQSL status. I checked the

 all my by ARRL checked contacts gave a checked result. The same
 happened when I just checked either the LotW or the QSL card box. All
 accepted contacts were marked.

This is a change from 8.04 to 8.05.  That way when you check the QSL
box in the award manager so you can only submit QSL cards to ARRL, it
won't try to submit QSL cards for QSOs that were already credited from
LoTW confirmations.

[Dx4win] Group number question

2011-03-13 Thread KU7Y
Hi All,

I just joined the list to learn how to use DX4Win.

I have a small log that I started when I did a SE station using a different 
call than mine.  So far so good...

But then I added about 30 or so contacts to that log when I didn't want them 
there!  So now it has QSO's that should be there and QSO's that should not 
be there.  All those that need to be moved have their own group number.

I can't find any way to only save or export that one group of QSO's.

Can that be done or must I do it all manually?

Thanks,

OK, back in my hole,

[Dx4win] ADIF import from JT65-HF

2011-03-13 Thread David Kozinn, K2DBK
Greetings all,

I've started playing with JT65-HF and wanted to import the ADIF file
that it creates. Apparently, it does not put a header in front of the
data which, according to the ADIF spec that I read, is optional.
However, when I try to import into D4W, it issues an error that the
header can't be read and aborts the import. I can fix it trivially by
editing the .ADI file to add a dummy header, but I'm wondering if this
is a bug in D4W or if I've misread the spec and a header is actually
required?

If it's the former, hopefully it'll get logged as a bug and fixed, if
the latter. I'll put in a bug request against JT65 HF.

[Dx4win] computer control of FT 2000

2011-03-13 Thread w0awl
I am using DX4WIN version  7.02.  There are no defaults for setting DX 4Win to 
control the 
Yaesu FT 2000.  A friend with a newer version gave me the defaults which did 
not work.
There are signs that some of the commands are coming through from the computer, 
but after
a minute or so, it tells me it has timed out.  I have read the posts about 
controlling the 2000,
and tried to make sure all the other settings in the menu are correct.
Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [Dx4win] Group number question

2011-03-13 Thread Bud Semon N7CW
Hi Ron,

This is an easy problem.  Use the Filter Search function - F8.  Then type
the Group number of the QSOs you want to move and hit return.  Now you have
a subset of your log containing only the QSOs with that Group number.  You
can now export them (File, Export, pick a format, then in the Filter Window,
File, Export) and do whatever you'd like.

BTW, I wish I knew you were in Brenda - I've gone through there a hundred
times, and did again just last weekend.  We'll have an eyeball one of these
days.

 This is a welcome change, but it is not documented in the 8.05 release

 that were already credited via cards.  If that is the case, that would be a
 big advancement!

It works both ways.  If a credit has been awarded, it no longer has to
be marked confirmed for DX4WIN to avoid submitting that credit again.

It *is* in the 8.05 release notes (Help | Contents | Revision History)
under QSO:

A QSO is treated as confirmed for an award if it was used in a
submission for that award

I believe that Paul had to make program changes to support the

Re: [Dx4win] ADIF import from JT65-HF

2011-03-13 Thread David Kozinn, K2DBK
The file actually doesn't have a header at all. The first line was a
CALL:6 just like any other data record. The issue seems to be that D4W
expects there to always be a header.

I re-read the spec, and it says:
 Optional header information may be included before the actual data in
the file
and
If the first character of a file is , it is presumed to be the first
field of the first data record.

You just need an EOH at the top of the file, before the first QSO.
That signals to DX4WIN that the header is done and the QSOs are to
begin.  In this case, the header is empty, but DX4WIN still requires
the end of header separator.

It also keeps DX4WIN from reading files as ADIF that are NOT ADIF
(yes, they could have '' as the first character on a line).

I believe that DX4WIN is doing the right thing.  I'll ping the ADIF
reflector, as you pointed out, it does not explicitly say that EOH
is required, but I believe most developers have inferred this.

[Dx4win] Missing LoTW Confirmations

2011-03-13 Thread Dusty Chapman
I just noticed that the ARRL says I have received confirmation for an LoTW
contact with KV4FZ on 160M. (From the list of Show confirmed QSOs only in
the Most recent QSLs and in Most recent QSOs.  I downloaded the file and
imported them to DX4WIN (Ver 8.04), but the QSO does not show up as
confirmed.  I wonder how many others might I might be missing?
What should I do, or do again, to get this to show as confirmed.

Next - I also just recently noticed confirmed countries in my Country
window and my Zone window shows it unconfirmed(the zone in the QSO file
has the proper zone).  Any VERY DETAILED help would sure be appreciated.
Thanks  73,
Dusty - K3WC
