Carter is too modest to note that his wife Kay is also the president of the 
ARRL. Hope someone can help him.

Subject: [Dx4win] Need Help
 

Hi All,

My name is Carter Craigie, and my call is N3AO, and I live in Blacksburg,
VA, with my wonderful wife Kay N3KN.

I need some help, and don't know to whom to turn. I hope you will be able to
help me.

Here's my problem:

I have a Yaesu FT-450 radio, and I want it to communicate with DX4WIN, and
with other programs as well. At one time all was fine, but something has
changed, and I am no longer able to make the connection to my Toshiba
Satellite E205. Under DX4WIN's Preferences, it is my Second Radio.

I don't understand COM Ports, and Kay will be the first to tell you that!
Hi!

Surprisingly, when using a SignaLink USB, I AM able to do PSK31 with Mix-W.

Hmmm.

Here is what I see under DX4WIN's Preferences (Radio):Radio: Flexradio

Address: 00

Baud Rate: 9600

Notes for Radio: Flexradio

Com Port: COM 6

Poll Rate: 500

Max Tries: 6

Check: DTR High

Check: RTS High

Transverter: 0

Band: None



Second Radio:

FT-450

Address: 00

Baud Rate: 4800

Notes for Radio: ON4AOI

Com Port: Com 5

Poll Rate: 500

Max Tries: 6

Check: DTR High

Check: RTS High

Transverter: 0

Band: None

What is happening now is that DX4WIN cannot read the radio.

I am completely stumped!  Do you have ANY suggestions for me, please???

[Dx4win] multiple filters

2013-03-06 Thread DALE LONG
For several logs I would like to find QSOs on 160m outside the USA (one of 
these is a DX log, but the issue is the same)

I know this can be done in other programs, but how can I do this in DX4WIN.

Thanks for all previous help, and a special thanks to Kostas for his 
willingness to help us all.

[Dx4win] dividing log by date

2013-02-07 Thread DALE LONG
Gentlemen:

One of my logs has 109,000 QSOs.  I would like to make an ADIF file for only 
the recent contacts (since Jan 2012)

I tried but I could not do it.  If this cannot be done, I will have another 
question.

Thanks

Thanks to all.  Zoran you solved my puzzle as I knew how to filter, but had 
only one date.  Again thanks to all.

Worked perfectly.

Sure it can. First you run Filter (F8), then select the desired date range (for 
a date range, you might have to change QSO Date parameter to Range under 
Preferences - QSO). With the filter active, the QSOs you want to export will 
be displayed. Now you go to File - Import/Export, select ADIF format, click on 
File - Export, pick a destination name, and the program will warn you that 
Filter active, use it for export, which is exactly what you want. Say Yes and 
you'll get a status message stating how many QSOs were exported. You're done.

[Dx4win] 2nd query

2013-01-04 Thread DALE LONG
I am in need of some assistance.  For my HH8 cards the verified cards have a 
check in the CONF column

For my CX cards there is a checkmark in the CONF and LABEL columns for the 
verified cards

1.How can I print the cards that are in the CONF column, or get the Y to be in 
both columns.  (I did not change the Preference, so they should have been the 
same)

2. I cannot add to my CX log because the imported log is set to print all.  How 
can I prevent this from happening. I do not want 3,400 QSOs to be flagged for 
printing.

I've read the help page and I am willing to learn, just need a few pointers (In 
the past I have had QSL managers to handle these duties)


Thanks

Dale - N3BNA

P.S. I had no response to my first message, but I have figured out some things, 
but still dont understand the program well.  But I am making progress.

Subject: help remove automatic QSL when importing file
 

I spent 4 hours last night responding to over 200 QSL requests. This was a 
dxpedition file where I operated multiple times.  Late in the night I imported 
a new file for the same callsign.  Now I have 3,400 QSLs to print, not the 200 
that I verified and selected.

Is there an UNDO function?  Is there a way to erase the new Print QSL 
records and not the old ones?

Can I go back to an earlier file?  The program was not closed and I have not 
done another SAVE.  All I did was check the QSL Print window to see how many I 
had done.

I have noted this before that a new file is defaulted to print every QSO when 
imported.  Is there a way to change that function?


Thanks

[Dx4win] label info disappearing

2012-12-29 Thread Dale Long
I am using version 8.05.  It has been a long time since I've used the
program, but the weather is bad and it seemed a good time.

 

When I enter the info from a QSL request, I use F8 and F2 keys  (with
Specify Next Request option)

 

When doing so, the Modification window (second on upper left) starts
counting down from a high number to zero.  If I attempt to print labels I
have only one label to print, even after entering many QSOs.  What is
happening, why the countdown, and why info it disappearing (at least
temporarily disappearing)

 

Working on 9 different logs and may have more questions later.   Thanks.

 

Dale - N3BNA

 

P.S.  I do not see Avery 5026 as an option in the label list.  Is there
another label that is identical?
