[Dx4win] Export SWL Records
Hello group Any way to export SWL records from DX4Win into a CSV, or an ADIF, or something besides just making labels out of them? Thanks to all Lou Sica AC0X [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[Dx4win] MMTTY and DX4Win interface
Finally downloaded 7.0.1, and just waiting for my key. Now of course I'm looking for instructions to set up the MMTTY and DX4Win interface. Is there a link with that information I can check out?
[Dx4win] D4Win eats all CPU power!
Here's something to try Disable the interface to your rig in DX4Win, and unplug your CI-V.

[Dx4win] What does the MMTTY interface get you?
I guess I don't quite understand what does having an interface to MMTTY from DX4Win get you as opposed to just running a seperate RTTY translating program (or having the output from a TNC piped into a terminal window for that matter)? Please explain to this thickheaded person.

I run VE3NEA's Hamscope and DXAtlas on the 2nd screen, with DX4Win taking up all the screen-estate on the first one. Works very well. It'd be even better if they worked automatically with each other (prefix lookup on the DXAtlas map using DXAtlas's superb lookup, and even rotator control...)

[Dx4win] 6.03 usage report, suggestions for enhancement
Let me clarify a seperate window for *entering search criteria to browse the log", and another seperate window to *add an entry to the log*. That way you can have QSO details for your current QSO in one window, and a search criteria for your existing log entries in another, so you don't loose the QSO data you're entering if you want to search your logbook. - Original Message - From: "J.

[Dx4win] 6.03 usage report, suggestions for enhancement
For bands like 10 meters, for signals right in the mud, a 30 degree difference is noticable even on my 8 element LP. For larger monobanders, I'm sure it more so. And besides, such detailed prefix info does exist, it'd be nice to see it incorporated into DX4Win. - Original Message - From: "Zoran Brlecic" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "dx4win reflector" Sent: Sunday, July 11, 2004 12:20 AM Subject: Re: [Dx4win] 6.03 usage report, suggestions for enhancement > L.

[Dx4win] 6.03 usage report, suggestions for enhancement
This message is being sent to the DX4Win reflector and to DX4Win support Having used 6.0.3 for a bit now, I feel I can make some comments on it. By far for the most part, it's a good update. Most of what I use of the new features is the LOTW interfacing features. A little confusing (as has been discussed on this reflector), but once you understand how to do it, not bad at all. The DXCC submission now allowing for DXCC challenge submissions is a plus, too. DX4Win is the best DX logging program out there. Other programs are slow (even making my Athlon XP 3000 box seem like it's struggling a bit), or are SO FULL of things to adjust (I don't want to have to spend an hour adjusting every font and every color on every window) or so full of "features" (digital voice keyers, beacon tracking, etc) that they skimp on basic stuff like DXCC awards submission or any sort of WAZ tracking at all. DX4Win is fast, it has easy to read windows, and it covers the needs of a logging program (data entry and reporting) very, very well. After saying all that, my suggestions 1) A better list of rotator directions for prefixes: For example. every time I enter a UA0 or UA9 call, DX4Win wants to rotate my beam to 353 degrees. Problem is, a ham in Asiatic Russia might be at a heading of anywhere from 325 to 25 degrees from here. A more detailed prefix list (UA9A, UA9K, UA0Z, UA0Y, etc, etc) would provide a better bearing for automatic rotator adjustment. 2) A date range and band filter on the "Change Award Flags" selection: DXCC cards submitted to "Field Checkers" can't include 160m cards or cards more than 10 years old. Being able to select these cards right from DX4Win would be a big help. 3) The ability to IMPORT from a CSV file: Sometimes, you just want to make changes to multiple items in your log that you know you just couldn't expect a logging program designer to think of. DX4Win can already export all fields to CSV. If it could RE-IMPORT those fields after you did whatever magic you had to in your favorite spreadsheet program, that would be sweet. 4) A seperate window for "browsing the log" than from "entering data" This is something I used to have in a previous program some years back, and I have gotten used to not having it. Still I miss not having to lose the current entry in my log window just because I want to do a search through my log to see what QSO's meet a certain critera. Thanks to all (including Paul) for listening to my suggestions. 73 de Lou AC0X
[Dx4win] need help with version 603
Others on here my have better suggestions, but I'd start by trying the following: 1) Can you connect to any node just using Windows Telnet, outside of DX4Win? 2) Are you using the save/dx4win.tcp file from the original install? If not, try restoring that and see if it makes a difference. - Original Message - From: "n3drk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "dx4win" Sent: Saturday, May 29, 2004 6:30 PM Subject: [Dx4win] need help with version 603 > This is my second post pertaining to this problem.

[Dx4win] 6.04 (6.1?) requests
I know, I know, I'm *really* jumping the gun here, but I thought I'd get my voice in early 6.0.4 (6.1?) requests In order of my preference, first to last 1) An option for "Field Checkable Cards Only?" under Reports/DXCC/Submission to accomodate the rules for ARRL "field checking" of DXCC cards (you can't submit 160m cards or cards more than 10 years old) 2) An option to include or not include spots that your radio is incapable of operating on (according to how you've set up Parameters/Station). Or another spot color to differentiate spots that are simply "No Interest" from spots that are "Not Possible". 3) For more accurate rotator control, a more robust prefix checker for the World Map. Something that can pinpoint the difference between an UA9X and a UA0K (a 35 degree azimuth difference from here) or even an LU#W or an Lu#t, for example. 4) The ability to actually produce ARRL DXCC and CQ WAZ submission pages (print em, sign em, and maiil em) Humbly submitted Lou AC0X [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[Dx4win] 6.03
I know I'm not one of the Beta testers, but I had to post my compliments about what I'm seeing in 6.03. Some of my favorite things: 1) Being able to "submit" cards for the DXCC award where DXCC hasn't been achieved yet (great for DXCC Challenge Submissions) 2) Easy export to a LOTW format and import back into DX4Win 3) 60 meters 4) The addition of the "green background" spot for "New Band/Mode" 5) The fix to the WAZ submission reports (the addition of the "time" field). So, now that you've whetted our appetities, when do we get the "real" version released?

Is there a way in 6.03 to "import" from the ARRL LOTW report? Some way where it will update (and only update) the Upl Conf flag?
