Re: [Dx4win] NPOTA - separating one log into multiple logs
Hi Mike, You might need to set the User Level to Advanced or Expert. File, Preferences, User Level, then select Advanced. Then re-start DX4Win. 73, Bud N7CW On Wed, Aug 10, 2016 at 6:18 PM, Mike Furreywrote: > Hi,I have been using DX4WIN version 7.04 for many years and it has served > me very well.

[Dx4win] NPOTA - separating one log into multiple logs
Hi,I have been using DX4WIN version 7.04 for many years and it has served me very well. I operated as an activator in NPOTA the last couple of months and at the end of each day I typed my paper logs into DX4WIN as a single log. I need to separate the log into the various park units for upload to LotW because on some days I activated multiple units. I thought this would be an easy process but I am stuck ... in "Filter" pull-down, the "Selection" and "Edit Group Names" are grayed-out. It appears this might be related to "Group" and I assigned a group number of "1" without any change. I am sure I am missing something simple here. Reading the manual I can't seem to find the right direction to go. Any help to get me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated (several chasers are a bit impatient).

Re: [Dx4win] JT65A
If you download and install VSPE from Eterlogic, you can share one Com Port with two different pieces of software, thus negating the need to turn off radio control of DX4Win when using other software. I use VSPE for DX4Win and Radio Control software on the same single com port. 73, John K9EL -Original Message- From: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of N4QS, Dave Perry Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2016 5:40 PM To: 'Courtney Judd'; 'ACG' Cc: 'SECC' ; Dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Dx4win] JT65A Cort, I use WSJT-X for JT65. It is also available as a free download. I setup both WSJT-X and DX4WIN to run off of the same com port. But I do not run them at the same time. When I want to work JT65, I click on Radio in DX4WIN and click on Stop Radio, but I keep DX4WIN open. This disconnects DX4WIN from the radio and opens up the com port. I then open WSJT-X and it automatically connects to the radio. When I am finished making a JT65 contact, the QSO is saved to the wsjt.log file. I then import the log file into DX4WIN. Just go to File, Import/Export, make sure ADIF is selected at the top, click on Import, go find the WSJT file in your directory, double click on it, then when the window for Options for Duplicates pops up, select Ignore Duplicate QSO. This will ensure that you only import any new JT65 QSOs into your DX4WIN log. Since the signal reports from WSJT-X incorrectly go into the Notes for this Call field, I then cut and paste to move the signal report information from that field to the Notes for this QSO field. When I am done working JT65, I close WSJT-X -- which frees up the com port. I then click on Radio in DX4WIN and Start Radio to connect the radio back to DX4WIN. Again, not elegant but effective. BTW, it is fun to work weak signal JT65 on 6m as well as the other HF bands. So you should give it a try. It would be great if Paul would someday start enhancing DX4WIN again. I am sure many of us would like to see an automatic interface between WSJT-X and DX4WIN like there is for MMTTY. We also need DX4WIN to support JT9 as a mode. I might also add that an automatic interface for Fldigi would be great for the many other digital modes currently available. But Paul has been strangely inactive and incommunicado for five or six years now. For the time being, this is a workaround that is cumbersome but pretty foolproof. Good luck. 73, Dave, N4QS -Original Message- From: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Courtney Judd Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2016 3:14 PM To: ACG Cc: SECC; Dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] JT65A well, I have been noticing that a lot of good dx is being spotted on jt65 up around 50276 or so.
