[Dx4win] DX4WIN_LABEL_PRINTING_QUESTION

[Joe - WDØM]

I've asked the same question ( many years 
ago).  The answer is found on the window that 
opens for Labels.  Look at the top, in the 
middle, and it asks you how many "Missing Labels" 
there are - put that number in the window, and it 
will start printing at the appropriate place.

When you go to labels|print QSL Lables, a small window comes up. Enter 
the number of missing labels in the "missing" field before you print.

[Dx4win] DX4WIN 7.01| MMTTY |FSK RTTY| microHAM micro KEYER

[Joe - WDØM]

Hi Roger,

Whatever I've done, however I've stumbled upon it, my MicroHam Keyer, 
DX4WIN 7.01 (Demo) and Icom 756 Pro work in FSK mode.

I'm still waiting for the key for 7.01 - but I've downloaded the program 
and have it running in the demo mode.  I've previously configured MMTTY to 
run FSK standalone - without DX4WIN.  DX4WIN (Demo) PREFERENCES window is 
set to start MMTTY in the MMTTY folder.

My MicroHam keyer is configured with FSK and PTT using the same port (5 in 
my case), and rig control is set to port 3.  When I click on one of the 
pre-configured messages that appear at the bottom of the MMTTY window under 
DX4WIN control, the transmission is in FSK mode, rather than AFSK.  (Note 
that the canned "Start" message needs to be edited to add %X at the 
beginning, or it will not enter the transmit mode.)

I'm not sure if there are any "subtleties" that I've stumbled upon, but it 
does work in FSK mode.  I'm using the Beta 2.0 version of MicroHam's router 
software - not sure if that makes any difference - you can download it from 
their site.

Happy to help further if I can - email direct and we'll chat.

[Dx4win] feature need

[Joe - WDØM]

Hi Folks,

All the filtering is done by the cluster.  VE7CC software lets you set the 
filtering you wish, but you must "Tell The Cluster" what you want, or all 
the spots will continue to flow through.  As a test, I set up the VE7CC 
program to provide ONLY 6M spots, told the cluster, and ONLY 6M spots 
appeared in DX4WIN.

[Dx4win] feature need

[Joe - WDØM]

My favorite is the VE7CC AR Cluster/DX Spider User program.  It can be 
downloaded at:

http://www.ve7cc.net/

Its very easy to setup to work with DX4WIN, and the details can be found at:

http://www.bcdxc.org/ve7cc/logging.htm

VE7CC's software can be configured to display only the spots you want, on 
any band, from any continent, any cluster, any mode.

Connecting DX4WIN to the software is pretty easy.

1 -  Start VE7CC and it will automatically connect to your favorite DX 
cluster if configured to do so.
2 -  Connect DX4WIN's internet function to"local" and data from VE7CC is 
ported to DX4WIN.

I've used Fabio's DXTELNET for years, and it too is a great program.

[Dx4win] DX Cluster Internet Connection

[Joe - WDØM]

Hi Joel -

I use the internet DX cluster program by VE7CC that interfaces to DX4WIN 
and it works very well.

http://www.dxc.ve7cc.net/

Configure DX4WIN internet connection to "local" by modifying the DX4WIN.TCP 
file:

Local 127.0.0.1 Port:7300

Specific set up instructions for DX4WIN are found at:

http://www.bcdxc.org/ve7cc/logging.htm

There is a "keep alive" function within VE7CC's spider DX cluster 
program.  Start VE7CC and DX4WIN.  Then you use DX4WIN to connect to 
"Local", and the spots will flow through to the DX4WIN spotting 
window.  Works well here - hope you have success too.

73,
Joe
WD?M

[Dx4win] Cluster via VE7CC

Hi Stan,

Have you set the filters the same way in VE7CC's program?  You can specify 
exactly what you want to see there, down to country, state and band.  Be 
sure to click on "Tell cluster" so that your filter settings are put into 
effect.

[Dx4win] External database versus qrz.com on the internet.

[Joe - WDØM]

Not to worry - I'm on several logging reflectors - you see, it's the great 
thing about hanging around various people who have open minds - and being 
able to cross-pollinate ideas on all those reflectors.  That way, perhaps 
authors will pick up ideas to improve their products, keep the features 
rich, and give their customers a better product so that it will flourish 
and prosper, rather than stagnate.  I enjoy using them all, and have no 
blind faith toward any.  Will I see you on other reflectors too?

Happy thanksgiving my friend,

[Dx4win] External database versus qrz.com on the internet.

[Joe - WDØM]

I don't think it's a problem - any database is only as good as the data in 
it.  Same goes with the database for QSL managers within DX4WIN.  It's 
interesting that, if there really were "so many problems to doing that", it 
was done in Logger 32.

[Dx4win] VE7CC AR Cluster software and DX4WIN

[Joe - WDØM]

Does anyone have VE7CC's AR cluster software running with DX4WIN?  If so, 
I'd love to know how the connection was made,  No luck so far

[Dx4win] MMTTY

[Joe - WDØM]

To argue that it "can't be done" because everyone doesn't have access to 
the internet to download MMTTY is a very weak excuse.  If someone wanted to 
get MMTTY badly enough, they would find a way.  What is being said is, that 
because everyone doesn't have access to the internet, then all users of 
DX4WIN must suffer.  I don't accept that argument.

[Dx4win] MMTTY

[Joe - WDØM]

Stan, you're absolutely correct.  Take a look at Logger 32 - MMTTY is fully 
integrated in that program, although not distributed with it.  The author 
of that freeware program did a great job - I hope that we see the same 
thing soon in DX4WIN, our favorite logging program!

[Dx4win] MMTTY

[Joe - WDØM]

Hi Tom,

There are several web references showing how to do what you're interested in:

http://users.skynet.be/ON4AOI/dx4winmmtty.html

http://www.qsl.net/wa9als/dx4win-mmtty-macros.rtf
http://www.qsl.net/wa9als/dx4win-mmtty-hardware.rtf

One of the above should head you the right direction.  I also use Logger 
32, which has a seamless interface with MMTTY and the logging program.  I'd 
love to see that in DX4WIN!

[Dx4win] MMTTY Integration

[Joe - WDØM]

If you'd like an example of how MMTTY is seamlessly integrated into a 
logging program, check out Logger 32.  It's a free logging program, and 
very capable.  The MMTTY integration is well done - sure would like to see 
it in DX4WIN

Download it at:  http://kc4elo.com/

[Dx4win] Upl Cnf Field - LOTW

[Joe - WDØM]

I've uploaded the DX4WIN ADIF/TQ8 file to LOTW - no problem.  I've 
downloaded the LOTW ADIF file and imported the results.  The "Upload" and 
Upload Date" fields are now filled in with a "Y" and the date I uploaded 
the log.  The QSL "Cnfm" field now shows a "Y" for those LOTW QSOs.  BUT - 
what is the purpose of the "Upl Cnf" field when using LOTW?

I think the help files could use a better "how to" description of the 
process, when it comes to DX4WIN's role in LOTW.

73 and TIA,

[Dx4win] Using Rigblaster for CW/RTTY

[Joe - WDØM]

Hi Joe,

Adding multiple serial ports should solve the problem.  Sounds like a port 
conflict - you can't run CW and RTTY at the same time on the same 
port.  Once a port is "captured", some programs won't let it go, so when 
you try to run another program that uses the same port, it will show up as 
a conflict.

I added an additional 8 ports (overkill) on my PC years ago, and assign 
different ports to different functions - RTTY, rig, CW, rotator, etc.  I 
use MTTY with DX4WIN using the Rigblaster Plus - no problems - as well as 
all the other sound card programs.

[Dx4win] Report Improvement Suggestion

[Joe - WDØM]

Scolded?  Naaa.mildly chastised?  Maybe.  I use a 19 inch LCD 
screen.I see absolutely everything fine otherwisewhy should I have 
to compromise with DX4WIN?  The report isn't anything I can change.  Why 
not focus (pardon the pun) on customer satisfaction, since it's something 
I'd think is quite easily changed.  Maybe the COLOR could be changed in the 
report to emphasize the differences, rather than be limited to black on 
white?  The significant confusion factor is the consistency of vertical and 
slanted lines seen (pun again) in using the M and W.

Here's the example:

MMWMMWW
MMOMMOO

Which is easier to distinguish?

[Dx4win] RTTY

[Joe - WDØM]

N1MM Logger requires (as do other programs incorporating MMTTY) that the 
RTTY program be downloaded separately, rather then being distributed along 
with the logging program, then installed separately.  This does NOT violate 
the intent of MMTTY's author.  How you use the freeware program is up to 
you.  Providing use of the freeware program to port data to another program 
is a different issue, IMHO.
