Do you have another receiver to determine if you have set up the FT-1000MP correctly? As shipped from Yaesu (default), almost all Yaesu transceivers (including all models of the FT-1000 series) will transmit "upside down" in RTTY. It generally necessary to set Menu 6-1 (FT-1000MP, MK V, etc.) to REV or DIP switch 5 (FT-1000, FT-1000D) to "0" for the resulting FSK to be "right side up". 73, ...

Mr Yaesu thinks normal RTTY is USB, this is a great RTTY debate for another day perhaps. I am guessing you RTTY signals are reversed. So either operate RTTY USB or in the FT1000MP there is a menu 6-1 that allows you to reverse the RTTY which will allow you to continue RTTY LSB. 73 John ZL1BYZ. -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ Sent: Tuesday, 20 March 2012 08:43 To: DX4WIN Refelector Subject: [Dx4win] FSK RTTY with DX4WIN/MMTTY and microKeyer I've decided to try FSK (no AFSK) with microHAM keyer and have configured router, DX4WIN and associated MMTTY for FSK as indicated in Router documentation.

Re: [Dx4win] Callsign maps to wrong country
Hi Steve, there are problems with YT4 calls from Bosnia/Herzegovina as licence was not issued from official authorities. That is why most of them (or all) are not valid for DXCC!

One of my QSL cards was listed as Serbia on my paperwork, but the card is actually from Bosnia & Herzegovina. This puzzled me, so I investigated. I used a report printout from DX4WIN (v8.03) to draw up my paperwork. It turns out that the callsign of this card, YT4I, comes up as Serbian when entered into DX4WIN. That makes sense, because the DXCC list says that YT is a Serbian prefix. However, the QSL card says it's Bosnia & Herzegovina. Per the DXCC Entity List, E7 is the Bosnia/Herzegovina prefix, that was effective as of Nov 2007. The QSL card is for a QSO in Feb 1998. Best I can figure is that Bosnia/Herzegovina used the YT prefix prior to 2007. I recall that there is a way to map a specific callsign to an alternate country, but I did some text searches in DX4WIN's helpfile and didn't find anything about it. How can I get the log entry for this callsign to show correct as Bosnia/Herzegovina?

I don't yet have my license key, but I was able to import my version 7 log and check out some of the new features. Importing the Version 6/7 format log file into Version 8 was absolutely trouble free. I did have to re-do some of my custom Logbook Report formats to account for the new fields, but this was no problem at all. All of my Selections and Group definitions imported perfectly. I'm especially glad to see the improvements to the LOTW record keeping and the elimination of the need to explicitly filter the log by date selection to get accurate DXCC CW statistics. The testing I've done so far has concentrated on checking out the DXCC CW reporting. Unfortunately, I have found some problems. I have around 56K QSOs in my log, the vast majority being CW. The log files go back to 1965, so there are a good many CW QSOs in the log that were made prior to being eligible for CW DXCC credit. Some of these have been submitted for Mixed and Band DXCC credit. I also keep track of my DXCC records using a fairly elaborate Excel spreadsheet and make sure it's updated every time the DX4WIN log changes and/or I receive new DXCC credits from ARRL. My standard procedure is to do a quick compare of the DX4WIN DXCC Summary reports against this spreadsheet each time after importing LOTW data or making any other changes to the log. I checked out the Version 8 DXCC Summary reports and found right away that regardless of the selection made in the dropdown boxes the Summary report ALWAYS gives the stats for All Bands / All Modes. The good news is that these stats are completely accurate, including the CW numbers. I tried all combinations of the "Modes" and "Bands" dropdown choices and always got the All modes / All bands report. I then took a look at the Listing reports for various band and mode combinations.To use the Listings data, I use the Write to File option to dump the report data to csv format to import into Excel. It's disappointing that while the Listing report format has changed slightly, it STILL uses the asterisk (*) character to designate "Checked" status. The asterisk is a special wild card character in Excel, and directly importing the csv file makes it impossible to edit and manipulate the data -- weird things happen. This means I still need to first run the csv file through Wordpad or some similar text editor to do a search and replace of the asterisk with some other character so I can use the file in Excel. It would be real nice if the report output used some other character to show "Checked" status. All of the DXCC reports except for CW were completely correct. There were multiple discrepancies for CW DXCC, which upon close examination all turned out to be the result of counting pre-1975 QSOs for CW credit. If these old records were excluded from the statistics, the CW report would be totally accurate. I have taken great care in setting the Mixed, Band and Mode credit flags for these older QSOs in the log file, and none has the Mode credit flag set, yet the report claimed that they were credited for CW. Apparently the internal logic of the program looks at neither the QSO date nor the status of the DXCC Mode flag when it generates the DXCC report. So we're almost there... The Summary gets the CW statistics correct, so there's clearly some logic that runs on QSO date, but it's obviously incompletely implemented. Also regarding the Listing report, when including Deleted entities the new version sorts its output in alphabetical Prefix order without regard for whether the prefix is for a Deleted entity or not. The older versions put all the Deleteds in alphabetical order at the bottom of the prefix list, a MUCH better way to present the data. I had to immediately re-sort the imported csv files to get them in the same order as the data from Version 7. Please restore the Version 8 Listing report to the same format as the Version 7 and earlier listings! There is also some sort of internal coding error that caused me a bit of hair pulling. For some reason, while the prefix for Minami Torishima is JD1/M, the Listing report renders it as JD1/W and thus interchanges the lines for Minami Torishima and Ogasawara, JD1/O. It was no fun dealing with this until I took a close look at the report and saw the incorrect prefix. Apart from these small problems, I like the looks of the enhancements to this new version of DX4WIN. I'm looking forward to getting my license key and doing mo
