Re: [Dx4win] USB to parallel port
Hello Dick, Try Google 'usb serial adapter with ftdi chip' and see what pops up in your area. There are several at a variety of prices - others may have suggestions with which they have had success. Was not using mine (unbranded from a UK source but supposed to be FTDI) for DX4 but it hit a snag after a windows update for Vista messed up the driver. Had same with the much maligned Prolific.

Re: [Dx4win] LOTW functions
Dear /mmx - I think you missed the whole point. However, let me say that using LoTW is no more complicated than keeping track of your online LL Bean orders once you sit down and use it periodically. Using once a year is not the way to approach it. I speak from experience. I bet most issues can be traced back to the initial log entry point, if I understand the premise. /cx -Original Message- From: A737Driver [mailto:a737dri...@consolidated.net] Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2010 3:32 PM To: 'Kostas Stamatis'; 'REFLECTOR dx4win' Subject: Re: [Dx4win] LOTW functions Kostas, et al, Very true.

Re: [Dx4win] Not In Log
I would be cautious of the following: As I understand the greater scheme of things stations, for example, using their calls under reciprocal agreements from other countries should sign, for example PJ5/N4ZZZ. Not N4ZZZ/PJ5. If you worked the station signing N4ZZZ/PJ5, and then you entered it into your log as PJ5/N4ZZZ there will be no match in LoTW. If I'm wrong on this someone please correct me. 73 H.
