[Dx4win] QSL from FR4FA/Juan de Nova
Hello all... A friend of me made some QSO with FR4FA in Juan de Nova island. He put them in Dx4win, writing "FT/J" in the "Prefix" field. But, each time he updates the country database, the "Prefix" field return to "FR". Has somebody else found this behaviour?

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN report for LoTW
Hello all. Many thanks to SV1DPI and to N7NU for their answers. I had done what Kostas suggested, but the resulting numbers always included all QSOs, whatever I clicked only LoTW, only Paper QSL, or both. I tried deleting (temporarily!) the QSOs confirmed only via paper QSL, but I guess this method is not the best. Well, I keep looking for a way to get a DXCC summary using only the LoTW confirmations, or using only the paper QSLs. Thanks beforehand for any idea!

[Dx4win] DX4WIN report for LoTW
Hello. I'm trying to make a DXCC report only for the QSO I have uploaded to LoTW. I click on Report > DXCC (include deleted) > Summary and I get the table with a lot of numbers. But there I can't tell which entities are confirmed through LoTW from those confirmed through paper QSL. I filtered my QSO to see only the QSO confirmed through LoTW and made a new report. I get the same results. Question: How can I get a report only for LoTW and another report only for paper QSL? Is that ever possible?

Re: [Dx4win] rx frequency in note for this qso field
Hello all... It sounds like N1MM exports both the FREQ and FREQ_RX fields, even when the QSO is simplex (i.e. the latter is not needed). You would have to go into the ADIF file, find all the FREQ_RX fields (both name and value) and completely delete them. May not be so easy. I use to change the unwanted fields, adding a _ before them (FREQ_RX... becomes _FREQ_RX...), so they are not recognized and imported by DX4WIN. If necessary, I can later restore the correct name. 73 de Isidro, EA8NQ E-mail: ea8...@hotmail.com (remove the _ ) Visit the EA8NQ's web page (in Spanish): http://ea8nq.ure.es __ 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] Problem in DX4WIN v 7.07
Hello Andy and the fellows in the reflector... I use DX4WIN v 7.07. Also has found out that it not correctly defines the country for the Russian stations with fraction. For example: UA0BA/3 - DX4WIN defines AsRus actually should be EuRus As should be if: UA0BA/1 - Eu Rus UA0BA/2 - Kaliningrad (UA2) UA0BA/3 - Eu Rus UA0BA/6 - Eu Rus UA0BA/8 - As Rus UA0BA/9 - As Rus UA0BA/0 - As Rus or: UA3AA/1 - Eu Rus UA3AA/2 - Kaliningrad (UA2) UA3AA/3 - Eu Rus UA3AA/4 - Eu Rus UA3AA/6 - Eu Rus UA3AA/8 - As Rus UA3AA/9 - As Rus UA3AA/0 - As Rus I think UA0BA/3 should sign UA0BA/UA3, and UA3AA/9 should sign UA3AA/UA9.

Re: [Dx4win] Strange errors in ADIF export
Hello all. About the strange errors in ADIF export, I made the following test: 1. I added TK0KP/SAN to my log. Dx4win (v8.03) tried to assign it to Sweden, but I writed down TK in the prefix cell (I guess Dx4win created an exception for this call). 2. I exported part of my log (i.e. only the TK QSOs) to ADIF. 3. I reviewed the ADIF file with the Notepad and I found the TK0KP/SAN record, which had PFX:4SAN0 (bad prefix) and DXCC:3214, as it should be expected. I think Dx4win is exporting correctly the unusual calls, provided they were assigned to the proper entity. Don't you think so?

Re: [Dx4win] Print bureau labels
Hello Hamad and the fellows... I do have a question is there a way which I can print bureau labels for a specific country? I do have more than 2000 bureau labels to print, and to print them all together will take very long time (i'm printing directly on the qsl card) so i thought it will be better if i can specify a country to print for. any Idea? There may be a simpler way, but this one worked for me: 1) Make a backup of your log. 2) Filter your log on what you want (a country, Label=Y, etc.). 3) Export the filtered log to DX4WIN6. 4) Create a new log and import the DX4WIN log just exported. This new log only has the QSO exported (ie. filtered by a country, Label=Y, etc.). 5) Print the QSL labels from this log. After that, you may discard this log. 6) Re-load the original log. 7) Filter the log again with the same criteria used in step 2) above. 8) Select QSO Multiple QSO Operations Set QSL Date, and put the desired QSL date. 9) Save the log.

Re: [Dx4win] Label Questions
Hi John, and the fellows... 1. I wanted to only print those labels which meet the selection of Confirmed=Y and Label=Y. When I tried to print labels, it would not take the selection - it wanted to print all of them. So, I created a new file using DX4WIN export version 6.01 and later, the latest export filter I have (I'm running V7.03). The file it created had a DXQ extension, not DXL, so couldn't be opened. Or, should I have used the import function? Yes, you have to re-import from the DXQ file. But it will not help... 2. So, I created an ADIF file instead, created a new DXL file and imported that. I had my 144 QSOs OK, although the Label field lost the Y's. I used that file to print the labels I needed OK. 3. Now I need to use the Multiple QSO function to place today's date in the 144 selected ones in the real file. Whoops, it uses the QSO date.??? What did I do wrong there? I guess I'll have no trouble resetting the print flag, but I need a good date. And, I could import them, replacing the originals, but I think that ADIF fails to carry along much needed fields, like Checked, etc., so can't do that. I just went back and created a new blank file, and imported the Version 6 file. Now I see all of the fields OK, but every record now says, Invalid(DX). The preferences are OK and I re-imported them just in case. It is a bug in the v7.04 DX4win. Where do I go from here? 1. First of all: make a backup copy of your original .dxl files (if you didn't it before). Then... 2. Go back to your original log file (before your step 1) and change the QSL method of the QSOs you want to make a label (or that of the QSOs you don't want to make a label, whatever it is easier), to an unused method (for example $$$). You may use the multiple QSO function (after filtering QSOs with Label=y, Cfm=n). 3. Print the labels ONLY for the method(s) you want. You might have to print in several steps (one for Bureau, another for Direct, etc.), setting the QSL date every time. 4. Finally, restore the QSL method you changed in step 2.

Click on Mapping Update to save the change. 2) Go to St. Barthelemy's mapping list (I think you already created the new entity) and be sure there is an FJ prefix which starts on 14/12/07. Click on Mapping Update to save the change. 3) Exit saving the changes. You should now be able to log an FJ callsign under St. Barthelemy (if the QSO's date is on 14/12/07 or after), or under St. Martin (if the QSO's date is before 14/12/07). I hope this will help... P.S.: I think the end date and start date may be the same, because the end date means in fact the QSOs before that date.

[Dx4win] Multiple QSOs on a label
Hi Ernie and the reflector... I have a bug somewhere in my label printing set up. When I go to print a label with, say, three QSOs, I cannot always get DX4Win to accomplish the task. As often as not, it will print out one QSO on one label. And, of course, take three labels, and ostensibly three QSL cards, out of the system. Or it will print two QSOs on one label, and one on the next. But not the three QSOs on the same label. Then, at a later time (and having closed DX4Win, and sometimes my computer, down in the meantime) I will try the same exercise again, on the self same QSOs, and all is well; that is, the three QSOs get printed on the same label. This same behaviour occurs over and over, completely randomly, and has done for several years. I have tried many, many combinations of changes to try to overcome the problem, including complete downloads of software, etc etc but to no avail. Is anyone else suffering this problem, or is it only me. I can/do get around the issue, if absolutely necessary, by exporting relevant QSOs out of DX4Win into another program, where I print the label perfectly every time, and life goes on. But, ideally, DX4Win should do this - shouldn't it? Can anyone out there offer advice? Be sure EVERY QSO to be printed in one label has the same status: confirmed or unconfirmed. Otherwise, a label will print the confirmed QSO(s) (with the Thanks QSL text), and another label will print the unconfirmed QSO(s) (with the Please QSL text). I hope this will help...

Send me the callsign, TCP/IP address and port, and the location if you know it. Here are a few Spanish DX clusters. May be of interest.

[Dx4win] Adding QSL Managers ??
Hi Art, and the reflector... Am I missing something? Is there a simple 'PopUp' window that allows the addition of QSL managers? To add a DX-station/QSL-manager pair: File (in the main bar) Database QSL managers Ctrl-Insert to insert a new pair. To add a QSL-manager's address: File (in the main bar) Database Manager Addresses Write down the new callsign, then Ctrl-Insert to insert the address. Don't forget to exit saving. 73 de Isidro, EA8NQ E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Visit the EA8NQ's DX Page (in Spanish): http://www.ure.es/ea8nq/ ---
[Dx4win] Cable interface
Hola Josep. Felices fiestas... Hi guys..! which kind of cable PC-to-radio do you use with DX4WIN..? Is it a normal CAT cable..? I would like to try some PSK31 and RTTY from the program now that I have it already configured. Depende de lo que quieras hacer. Para controlar el radio desde el DX4Win necesitas un cable CAT adecuado para el radio. Para operar en modos digitales necesitas un cable apantallado entre la salida LINE OUT del ordenador y la entrada de audio de TX del radio (preferiblemente no la entrada de micr?fono, sino alguna para mayor nivel de se?al), y otro cable similar entre la salida de audio de RX del radio y la entrada de audio del ordenador (LINE IN). Posiblemente necesites alg?n circuito de adaptaci?n entre ambos equipos, aunque yo uso los cables sin m?s y funcionan bien.

[Dx4win] Cable interface
Hi Jo, and the fellows in the reflector... I also need the answer. Could someone be kind enough to translate this into English, please? Tnx es 73 de Jo, YC0LOW Sorry, I didn't think my message could be of general interest :) ... Here is: The cables you need depend on what do you want to do. To control the radio with DX4Win, you need the proper CAT cable for your radio. To operate on digital modes only, you need a shielded cable from the LINE OUT connector on your PC to the TX audio input on the radio (preferably not the MIC input, but some other for higher signal level), and another similar cable from the RX audio output on the radio to the LINE IN connector on the PC. You might need some adapting circuit between both equipments, but I use only the cables with good results.

[Dx4win] Master call
Hola Josep... I have downloaded a Master.zip file but what I get when unzipped is a file called dx4win.mas, and I am not able to load it to the program, is that correct..? I have it in the main dx4wim directory. Thanks help. Josep EA6BF En principio el DX4Win usa el archivo dx4win.mas sin tener que hacer nada m?s que colocarlo en el directorio principal del programa. Una vez hecho, reinicia el DX4Win y abre la ventana Window Master calls. Teclea alg?n indicativo popular en concursos a ver si aparece en la ventana Master Lookup. Si no sucede nada, el archivo podr?a estar mal o, a pesar del nombre, no tener el formato adecuado para el DX4Win. Tambi?n puedes usar uno de los archivos .dta que circulan por ah? (master.dta, etc.), pero antes tienes que convertirlo al formato del DX4Win: colocas el archivo master.dta (o el que sea) en el directorio principal del programa, abre la ventana Master calls, clic con el bot?n derecho y elige Convert.

[Dx4win] Master.dta to dx4win.mas
Hi Fred and the reflector... Is there a way to convert my actual logfile into a dx4win.dta file ? Thanks 1) With your log open, File (main window) Import/Export Calls only for master calls Export. Choose a name for your text file (ex. calls.txt) 2) Close the Import/Export window. Now inside the MasterLookup window, right clic Convert, navigate to the file you made in step 1), write down its name (ex. calls.txt) Open. Note it is not a .dta file, but the calls.txt (or whatever name you gave to it in step 1).

I went home at lunch and changed some settings in DX4WIN and on the 706, no cigar. Next I loaded the testing software CIVTEST to test communications between the radio and the computer. First I tested the CT-17 on COM4 and I could not communicate. Then I tested the CT-17 on COM1 and the same results, no communications. I have one of those cables made by the N9 in Arkansas and put it in line. First I tried COM1 and it worked! Then I tried COM4 and it did not work. I only have COM1 internal to my computer and then I have a ByteRunner Serial card with COM ports 4 through 11 on a spider cable. I know COM8 is working because that is how I key my Mark-V with the W5XD interface. So I moved the cable back to COM1 and changed DX4WIN to COM1 and again, no cigar. There are 8 settings for the second radio in DX4WIN and here are my settings: Type: ICOM 706 Address: 48 Baudrate: 9600 COM Port: 1 Poll Rate (ms): 5000 Max Tries: 6 DTR high: checked RTS high: unchecked I know that the rig talks to the computer when I use CIVTEST but it does not work with DX4WIN.

I'm often going through contest logs trying to find out whether I need to QSL a new prefix, for example. If I see that the status for that prefix is W then I need to make a label. If I find the status is L then I don't need to make another one. I find it useful. I don't understand what has to be added in. Let's take DXCC as an example. The Totals column is all the entities you've ever worked. The CnfTotal column to the right is all the entities you've confirmed.

[Dx4win] Another Custom Award Question (WAE CW)
Hi all... In the WAE CW Award Full Listing the 6th entry is: 4U/VICUN Vienna I cannot find that prefix in the DX4WIN Prefix window. That's because it isn't a DXCC country, it's only a country for the purposes of this award. ARRL counts it as Austria, OE, but it's a separate multiplier in CQ WW DX contest.

[Dx4win] Configuring DX4WIN to work with QRZ.COM
Hi Jim, and all the DX4win fellows... Can someone please send me instructions or a screen shot showing how to configure DX4WIN F3 callbook lookup key to work with QRZ.COM? 1) In the main menu go to File Preferences Ext Data Website callsign lookup. 2) Mark the Enabled box. 3) Put http://www.qrz.com/ in the Callsign lookup address box. 4) Put http://www.qrz.com/callsign?qsl= in the QSL manager lookup address box. 5) File Save changes and exit. Now, when you have a callsign in the QSO log, hit F3 (The Callsign/Mgr lookup windows will appear with the related info). Hit Enter and the Internet browser will open with the QRZ.com page showing the QSL manager data. Note: If you invert the steps 3) and 4) (i.e. puting http://www.qrz.com/callsign?qsl= in the Callsign lookup address box and vice-versa), when you hit Enter after F3, You will get the QRZ.com page showing the data for the callsign, not for the manager. 73 de Isidro, EA8NQ E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Visit the EA8NQ's DX Page (in Spanish): http://www.qsl.net/ea8nq/ --- From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Jun 19 00:59:02 2005 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Franki ON5ZO) Date: Sun Jun 19 01:00:00 2005 Subject: [Dx4win] problem: QSOs spread on multiple labels References: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear users, I have the following problem.
