[Dx4win] How long to wait for a new license key ?
Hi; I finally chose to upgrade my DX4WIN to the latest on Sunday, I got the order confirmation immediately. How long are we then waiting for the new key? I ordered an Echo Dot at the same time, that arrived in the post today !!

Re: [Dx4win] Version 9 of DX4WIN available
thats my worry John, I'm not doing data modes I use DX4WIN as I have done for 17 yearor so, but i dont hear anything revolutionary with V9, that thinks I must upgrade ?

All the country totals are correct too. There has already been mention of the next release - now that the basics are sorted out, can we expect some real enhancements next time around? (and the packet filtering bug fixed, too?) It would be good to understand the road-map, if there is one? In my mind, the enhancements offered do not particularly warranty a version upgrade, they're 'point upgrade' features that should have come out a long time ago. I'm really disappointed by it - the only real benefit for me is the ability to log FT8 QSOs, the rest is superficial. Others may view it differently of course. I do like DX4WIN for its multiple groups functionality, stability, interface, speed and powerful searching but we're now in 2017 and people use MMVARI, FLDIGI, WSJT-X, Clublog etc... I'm sure there is more to come. Modern day logging software needs to interface with these tools; for a 'paid for' product I would expect much more than what has been delivered. I've paid and I'll stick with it because I know it. But probably not for much longer, I feel I'm being taken for a ride here.

Re: [Dx4win] changing QSO IOTA award status by downloaded CSV file ?
Hi Paul, If you're ever looking at Clublog filters, and how they import/ modify Dx4win data, I use OQRS now as my prime means for label printing, since I have many requests now on line, for the DX calls we have used. When I then imprt the QSL status into DX4Win, I noticed the ARRL update reverts to unsent. I know this is mainly due to the clublog export adi file, but it would be good if there was an import option that only updated QSL status 73 Dave G3NKC Sent from Samsung tablet Original message From: Paul van der Eijk Date: 27/03/2017 23:10 (GMT+00:00) To: Jim Reisert AD1C Cc: DX4Win Reflector Subject: Re: [Dx4win] changing QSO IOTA award status by downloaded CSV file ?
