[Dx4win] DX-Cluster
Hello all, I'm a new user of DX4WIN. I hope this programm will meet my requirements in logging and track trace DXCC's (awards, Paper/LOTW QSL-ing) in combination with a dx-cluster. After trying to set-up the dx-cluster a question came up. Is it possible to select and save a preferred dx-cluster and auto-connect to it after starting up DX4WIN? I couldn't find it. 73's, Evert PA2KW __ 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] DX-Cluster
Hi Evert, Welcome to DX4WIN. It does not auto-connect, but it does save the most recent dx-cluster that you connected to at the top of the list. So it is easy to find your favorite the next time you start DX4WIN. I actually use CC User by VE7CC to stay connected to may favorite cluster outside of DX4WIN. I then connect DX4WIN to CC User by using the following address: localhost:7300. This link tells you how to do this: http://www.w4gkf.com/dxcluster You should also refer to the excellent support by AD1C by going to this link: http://dx4win.ad1c.us/index.html Click on Jim's Applications Notes for many good tips on how to setup and use DX4WIN. 73, Dave, N4QS -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Evert Bakker (PA2KW) Sent: Sunday, January 20, 2013 1:03 PM To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] DX-Cluster Hello all, I'm a new user of DX4WIN.

[Dx4win] Transverter offset
Hi all! Not long ago I start to use my 2m transverter with my IC-7700. The I.F. for this transverter is 28 MHz. To log my QSO on 2m correct, I activate transverter offset (File-Preferences-Radio). It working fine, but if I need to log QSO on 10m, a have to cancel transverter offset via File-Preferences. Is it possible to do that without changing preferences every time just with one key on the fly?

[Dx4win] DX-Cluster
Well, you guys are fast in replying. Tnx for the info. I see that several of you use the VE7CC cluster program and that it can work together with DX4WIN (up to a certain level I guess). So I just scanned the W4GKF paper, which raised another question. He's talking about setting up the filters by checking the boxes of needed DXCC on certain bands (if I'm right). But should DX4WIN not do the work and compare my DXCC-list of worked and confirmed countries (from the qso database) as per band/mode/etc with the incoming spots? I don't want my cluster to tell what I need or not. I prefer this type of information and intelligence to be on my own computer. Am I right that the VE7CC program won't meet this specific requirement? May be I should even go back to the basis. I used VQLog in combination with DXTelnet from Fabrizio for more then 15 years now. It workes(d) great (especially for VHF) BUT: With all the new ways of confirming DXCC (LOTW), the spot window of VQLog is not able to show me what I want. I do have many paper qsl's but still need a couple of hundred for certain bands/or modes. In the meantime I also started working DXCC's on specific band/mode if don't have them confirmed on LOTW. I just started all over again (keeps me away from the street) I want my spot window to warn me if I need a QSO with the DXCC or slot (this triggers my Amp) or need the QSL in either paper or LOTW (this might trigger my Amp) These warnings should preferably be in different colours in the Spot window. Is this possible with DX4WIN in combi with it's own or external Cluster/Spot program. I allready noticed that many programs can't do this. Well a rather long story. Sorry bothering you with these (may be stupid ideas). 73's, Evert PA2KW __ 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
