[Dx4win] DX4WIN Demo Bug

[Radivoj Kar]

I've just re-subscribed to the Reflector and seen messages about "Demo Bug". 
After upgrading to v. 7.07.02 it happens to me too. In order to ease 
identification of the cause, here is the messsage I sent to Paul by mail today. 
I did not attempt to use any Filters, it just happened when I wanted to save 
and exit from DX4WIN: 
 
"Hi Paul,
 I have a serious problem with my last version 7.07.02 of DX4WIN, which never 
happened with previous versions: 
 

Tried to save my log before exit: “ An exception occurred. Can not create file. 
The system can’t find the path specified” . Could save log only by “Save AS” .
After “Saving As” tried to Exit: “Thread error. Acces is denied (5)”. Could 
exit only by Ctrl-Alt-Del/Task Manager.
Another time got DX4WIN frozen but word “WRITING” was being displayed in the 
information field
The worst happened last night: program after two QSO’s being logged, suddenly 
reverted to “Demo mode” and refused to save QSOs. Also, these last two QSO’s 
have disappeared from the log !

The only other applications that were running on my Windows 2000PRO PC were 
microHAM USB device Router 7.2.4 , NOD32 antivirus, ZoneAlarm Pro 5.5.094  and 
Internet packet cluster/spots (connection to F5MZN cluster).
 
Is it possible that some of incoming cluster messages could cause such a 
strange behaviour ? 
 
Please help as I am extremely worried with losing QSO’s made with some rare DX 
stations…."
 
Best 73,
Radi, F6GNZ

Re: [Dx4win] Locked in Demo mode: Pbm NOT soved for all cases

[Radivoj Kar]

My all files are "archive" but DX4WIN still reverts to Demo mode from time to 
time. When started, it always finds and loads the last log file used and 
reverts to Demo after some time of use.
So, wo2n had a particular problem that was solved by making files "archive" , 
but it doesn't mean the issue is fully resolved for other cases. Paul suggested 
to try to disable antivirus and see if revert to Demo mode still persists, so 
will try this.

  If you copied the files from CD, they may all be read-only on your hard drive.

  Try giving all the files write permission and see if the problem goes away.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN Demo Bug

[Radivoj Kar]

Hi Mel,
The Thread error happened right after I tried to save my log , got error 
message "an exception occured, cannot crfeate file, the system can't find the 
path" , saved a log with "save as" and then tried to exit. So, it seams these 
two errors are somehow related. The program did not revert to Demo mode during 
this event, it happened in another occasion...
So, these three bugs may be mutualy related or not, and depending on same or 
different circumstances...
Will try to follow Paul's advice to temorarily disable NOD32 antivirus.

They are different issues Radi. The Demo bug I believe was around in ver 6 
also... but it has been a while so I am not sure. The Thread Error I believe is 
only in ver 7... (at least I never saw it earlier) but I have never heard of it 
happening unless there is a hardware/configuration issue. I thought it was 
happening when you tried to write the file. If it is happening on exit, you 
could create this error if you are using USB devices and turning them off 
before you exit your program. When the program tries to close the port, it 
would hang with a Thread Error. Why the program doesn't handle this error more 
gracefully only Paul could answer.

[Dx4win] DX4WIN v.7.05.04 Help files inactive

[Radivoj Kar]

In previous version 6.04, clicking Help-Contents brought in the Help File on 
the screen. Idem for the "Search for the help on" .
 
In ver. 7.05.04 , despite the fact that helpfile.pdf and usrguide.pdf are both 
in the Docs folder of DX4WIN,  clicking Help-Contents results in : 
"Warning. Could not get help contents. Error=0 Msg: The operation completed 
successfully"
Hitting "Search for help on" : nothing happens
 
How to get Help working OK?

Hi Mel,
 
Thanks for suggestion. Found two shortcuts for help file in c:\docs and 
settings\RK\recent, one with Start in c:\program files\dx4win707, another in 
c:\program files\dx4win604 (this one remained after deleting dx4win604 
directory and files). After deleting this remaining old shortcut, hoped it 
would solve the problem, but hasn't !

Make sure the shortcut "Start in" is set to the DX4Win root directory.

This will still get confused from time to time if you use the Common Dialog 
control... but next time the program starts it should be OK again.

Radi, if you are using one of the more popular email programs you should be
able to set rules to handle this.  I am not sure about Lotus, but Outlook

Sorry, I've made a mistake saying 7.05 (I noted that reference from one of 
previous responses in this Reflector on a paper and was looking at this while 
writing my comment. My version is well 7.07.02, and the Help problem is in this

[Dx4win] Backup Of Logbook to Floppy

[Radivoj KAR]

Bud,

I suggest you better use the PCMCIA or USB flash memory card for backup: it
is much faster and has more space than the floppy, so you even do not need
to zip the log. Furthermore, you can even install and run DX4WIN from there,
so that you can use the program and files on different PC's during  portable
operations (providing they run the same OS).

If the size of a logbook file (zipped) is greater than the 1.44M
capacity of a floppy, will DX4WIN automatically ask for the insertion of
the second floppy?

Hi Dick,
You're right, but flash memory is still faster, no aging mechanical
movements, no impact from magnetized environment and, besides, the product
life of drives like ZIP is very short today ( I have both 100 MB ZIP and 2GB
Jazz I do not use any more for already 2 years...).

I don't know how many people use ZIP drives, but a single 250 MB ZIP drive
will handle more QSOs than I could ever create in a lifetime.  ZIP even
offers software that will automatically backup any file or files you
specify whenever those files change.  Lots of options, Bud.

[Dx4win] Backup Of Logbook to Floppy

[Radivoj KAR]

Tom,
Yes, it is a nice way to do it, but it would be even better if a function
could be integrated into DX4WIN software, so when one exits, DX4WIN
automatically saves log into the original save directory and then backups
the copy of this into a pre-configured (in "Preferences") external drive
(USB/PCMCIA flash, ZIP or floppy)...

I hope in one of the next Christmas versions of DX4WIN, Paul will make the
program fully operator-independent: it would permanently monitor DX Spots,
pick-up the needed ones, switch TX to desired band/frequency, turn antenna,
make a QSO out of the pile-up, log it, print QSL and announce good news to
operator entering into the shack by playing a "Marseillaise"  and blinking
the worked rare DX-ped call in large Christmas fonts on the screen!

After writing this, a flash blew in my mind, reminding me of the old
nineteen-fifties/sixties, working with home-brew equipment, spending long,
cold nights tuning my 1-v-1 RX to find and pick-up that weak, low-power DX
out of the noise and make a QSO, happy to get 449 for my 20-50 watt signal
(I used to be YU1KG at that time..).
What does it take to make us happy now?

Dick,

I used to use a ZIP but have since changed over to a USB Jumpdrive.  I have
a small batch file that zips the entire /save directory and copies it onto
the jumpdrive.  I have a copy of pkzip in the save directory and an icon on
the desktop that calls this batch file:

cd c:\Progra~1\dx4w603\save
pkzip -u -x*.~?? F:\dx4win\dx4w603.zip *.*

Works like a charm...

[Dx4win] Filter spots per origin

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Paul,

I've got retired and have more time for QSO's. I found out that many local
clusters announce spots received from anywhere. US hams are surely not
interested seeing their spot window filed-up with 160-meter and 80-meter
spots announced by European stations. And I can't make any use of the VK9
spot announced by a JA station...
So, if you're still motivated to keep DX4WIN the Number One ( and I am sure
you are! ), it would be fine to add a possibility to Preferences to
filter-out the spots announced from some major high-activity countries. I
know that sometimes I could hear a rare DX announced by a W-Ham, but then
other EU ops could hear it too and some of them would also announce it...
What do you think about my proposal?
Best 73,

Radi,  F6GNZ

[Dx4win] Filter spots per origin

[Radivoj KAR]

John,
Yes, I know, but most of them use some popular software like Pavillion which
does not have the filtering feature. And even if they did, I can't force
cluster owners to use them, Hi!

Thanks a lot. This is what happens when someone wants to try the software

[Dx4win] Another wish: Multiple DX4WIN "Preferences"

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Paul,

Just returned from ZK1GNZ and FO/F6GNZ DX-pedition, which has led me make
you a wish for one of the next releases of  DX4WIN:

My suggestion is to separate the licensing procedure from "Preferences" .
Different "Preferences" should be edited and used  when creating new  logs
during field-days, portable and DX-peditions, with different callsigns, QRA
locations and equipment configurations used by the same licensee. In this
case, the CW and PSK function key message "%~ " could be related to the
temporary callsign, and not to the licensed callsign, which would avoid need
of manual replacement of this string by the temporary used callsign.

With thanks for your excellent work and support, I wish to you, Steve and
all DX4WIN fans a happy New Year 2005.

Radi, F6GNZ

[Dx4win] CW function-key with USB RS232 emullation

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Paul,
I have purchased  very fine and versatile Micro-Keyer (MK) from OM7ZZ
(www.microham.com ), which allows full computer control, Iambic keying,
CW/PTT and PSK/Packet/RTTY/SSTV interfacing with my FT1000MP (and other
modern rigs) over the USB port of the laptop (many new laptops today do not
have RS232 comports). The MK uses a program that emulates RS232 COMports
over the USB port, without need to manually define the IRQ's.

I have configured DX4WIN preferences on my Win2000Pro Pentium III 1GHz
laptop (the same one that was used to control radio via RS232 ) to use now
the COM4 for radio control and COM5 DTR/RTS for CW and PTT keying.
Everything works fine as before (when I was using COM1 RS232 for radio
control, CW and PTT keying), except one thing:

The messages stored in buffers of the CW function-key keyer of DX4WIN are
now being sent with a lot of errors: omission of dots, replacement of dashes
by dots, change of spacing/weights...

The examples (changing randomly):
F6GNZ becomes --> R6GNZ, R6GIZ, F6RNZ..
F6EPY --> F6PY, R6EPY..
UP --> AG, AP
QRZ --> QNZ

I first thought the problem could be  either in the USB/RS232 driver
software or within the micro-Keyer software. But, I found that with another
(contest) logging software (WinTest by F5MZN), installed on the same laptop,
there is no problem nor distortion of CW strings sent from its function
buffers over the USB interface. I tried to inhibit all other programs
running in the background, but still no improvement of DX4WIN CW keying. So
,I suppose DX4WIN uses some different software routine for CW keying than
WinTest.

As the issue may have a similar impact on the future non-RS232 port provided
PCs, which would use USB/RS232 emulators to interface DX4WIN with rigs,
would you please give me your thoughts on the above, and let me know if the
issue is dependent on the USB driver program used, and if yes, do you
suggest using a particular one. I could use the internal MK CW buffers to
store message strings, but it won't be able to read and insert the
correspondent's callsign nor automatically log the QSO, like it can be done
by the use of the DX4WIN buffers in CW pileups.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Radi  F6GNZ

[Dx4win] RE: Micro-Keyer CW via PC

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Paul and Steve,

Good news: OM7ZZ has revised his USB router and I have  just installed and
tested it: CW from DX4WIN works PERFECTLY over the USB port,  without ANY
faults! So, I guess no need to do anything from your side, as the issue can
be solved within the USB driver routines!

Best 73 and keep a good work...

[Dx4win] Strange:DX4WIN accessible via another ISP !

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi,
Thanks to all sending me info on accessibility on their end. I tried to
connect using my old PSTN ISP account and wonder: over this provider I can
access the site.
But, it still remains inaccessible via my hi speed cable ISP (UPC). This
happens after I have replaced old 512kbps cable modem with a new 2048 kbps
modem they sent me a week ago.

Is it some inhibition of the access string by the modem because it is
similar to some command in a new modem, is it possible that ISP filters
access to the site, or something happens in my Windows2000PRO/Explorer v.6
related to the selection of DX4WIN site via this ISP?

Any suggestions ?

You may also be infected with Ad Ware or Spy Bots or Spy Ware (have heard it
called all three names). Sometimes they will cause your browser to
re-direct.  Suggest you get either Adaware, or Spy Bot (both free and they
can be found using google search) to clean your system.  Which ever one you
get, keep it up to date and scan every so often.  I like the new Ad-A-Ware
personal edition (free).

It was a good exercise anyway, as everybody was looking in different ways
the problem could happen, and sometimes does. I will remember this in case I

Sorry, Radi.  The problem was all on my end (as web host of
DX4WIN.com).  The IP block that you are using, 84.x.x.x, was an unroutable
block of IPs until recently.  My firewall is set up to block IPs that are
not routable, and I missed the fact that some of the IPs in the 84.x.x.x
block of IPs have been assigned and are legitimate, routable IPs.

The problem has been resolved, and you should be able to reach

My sincere apologies for the problem!  And thanks to George K5VUU for

[Dx4win] Spot filtering by zone pbm

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Kevin,

Yes, it is clear, but what I said was that if I do not set up filtering in
the IP cluster and I set a filtering in DX4WIN, I still get all unfiltered
spots, which did not occur with my 5.03-VHF cluster configuration.
But it's not a severe pbm, just question of curiosity whether dx4win is
designed not to use its own filtering with IP clusters.

Subject:Re: [Dx4win] Spot filtering by zone pbm

Hi, Radi.

I don't _know_ how DX4Win works, but here's what I suspect.  DX4Win
filters what comes to it from the cluster.  If the cluster is configured
to filter spots, DX4Win applies its filters to that already-filtered
stream.

So, if your TCP/IP connection is set up to filter out all spots other
than zones 14, 15 and 16, then DX4Win will only see spots for those
three zones.  It will apply its own filters to that stream.

I hope that helps.  Personally I prefer the cluster-side filtering, but
that's because I'm doing more complex filters (low bands, vhf, uhf) that
I find more easily configured on the cluster.  That's my preference
right now.  I've used DX4Win's zone filters successfully, too.

[Dx4win] CW in Contest Mode

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Paul,

In December I will go to DX-ped to Hiva-Oa (Marquises Islands) and Cook and
would like to avoid using special contest software. To have DX4WIN useable
in pileups, when in Contest Mode it needs only to have Alt-K window
permanently enabled (not just on the screen), so that after entering one's
callsign, he could be called and reports exchanged immediately via PC
function keys, without need to use mouse to jump from logging window into
the CW window, and then back to be able to log the QSO.

Do you think such a "special" could be added in a reasonable time, and would
you wish to do it?

http://www.ad1c.com/dx4win/#County

The following new states are now supported (old states in ()):

AL (CA) FL GA IL IN MI MN NC OH (PA) TN (TX) WI

I have tested most of these with Writelog (except AL, MI and MN) but have 
not tested with any other logging programs.  If there are problems, let me 
know and I will fix them.

Next on the agenda is to add support for Mid Atlantic QSO Party and New 
England QSO party.

These are the known issues:

1.  County line operations are not supported.  There is no part of the ADIF 
specification
 which describes what to do.  The program will probably just print a 
warning.

2.  Some calls are not converted because they do not *appear* to be from 
the USA,
 for example KH2D/4 and NL7AU/4.

3.  In PA QSO Party, the program will issue a warning about ARRL sections.

Hi Paul,
Have you also planned to stop changing mode in QSO window with each new
incoming spot in case the "ignore mode in real time" is selected?

[Dx4win] BV7: Direct printing on QSL cards

Trying to print directly to reserved space on 140x90 cm QSL cards using
DF3CB BV7 software.

Hi,

I found it is better to set QSL received flags in DX4WIN, export into BV7
and do QSL printing from there.
I haven't tried to do what you have been doing, so don't know if the same
error message would appear after re-importing into DX4WIN. I do all my QSL
management in BV7, it's a great program for this. The only limitation is
that it is too difficult to set-up printing directly to QSL cards if one has
them with already pre-printed QSO data fields..

[Dx4Win] Yaesu FT-1000MP

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi,

I'd like to know if the FT1000MP Mark V or Field owners have the same
problem as identified in FT1000MP:

Pushbutton band change follows correctly the user preselected ANT A/B per
each band, but the CAT interface does not support it (same with any logging
program, not only DX4WIN). Wonder if Yaesu has taken care of this issue in
the current new generations of FT1000MP variants.

Below is the message sent by Paul to Yaesu back in 1998, which seems never
received any response from them.

Reply-To: Paul van der Eijk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Hi,

I was about to send this to Yaesu, but I wonder if anyone on 'OUR'
reflector has any insight. Meanwhile, be aware of this problem!

Dear Madam / Sir,

I'm the author of DX4WIN, a Windows logging program which supports many of
your radios. Some of our users encountered the following problem with the
FT-1000MP:

The users sets all bands for Antenna1 except for the 160M band which uses
Antenna2. When the radio is using Antenna1 and my program sets a new
frequency in the 160M band, the radio will not switch to Antenna2
automatically. This can lead to a substantial impedance mismatch, resulting
in damaged equipment etc if the user does notice this in time.

So I wonder if there is a way that the radio selects the correct antenna
when setting a new frequency programmatically. Hopefully this can be
accomplished with a setting on the radio rather then programming very
specific code for this model.

Looking forward to your reply,

73 de Paul, KK4HD

Your key should be in your old DX4WIN 6.03 main folder directory.

[Dx4win] Anybody using FT1000MP Mark V?

[Dx4win] Anybody using FT1000MP Mark V?

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Leo,

I have tried with other logging/control software, and the same problem
exists, so this is the Yaesu and not DX4WIN problem! I just want to know if
Yaesu has recognised it and has done something to correct the issue in the
next generation of their radios. It seems to me ICOM listens much more to
their users (I have asked them why they don't  include the real-time clock
with date/time in their radios and they've done it immediately).

Now, with good propagation on 160, it happens to me often when I change
bands by clicking on the spot, to transmit to the wrong power amplifier and
antenna from my FT1000MP (I have antenna output A connected to one linear
amplifier and my HF beams, and output B going to another amplifier/antenna
dedicated only to 160-meters)

It is a pity, as it may just be a C.A.T. software modification in the
FT1000MP, but Yaesu maybe just doesn't care...

[Dx4win] IC706 Radio frq control

[Radivoj KAR]

Just found something strange ( v. 6.04):
Trying to use Radio Frequency Control window to set split frequency of
IC706:
1. Check Split box: IC706 goes to SPLIT mode; Uncheck box: IC706 stays in
SPLIT mode
2. Main: 7070 kHz, Check Split box and shift QSX to 7075: IC706 behaves OK,
but after 1-2 seconds Split box un-checks and QSX reverts to  7070 kHz, but
IC706 still keys correctly between 7075 TX and 7070 RX. This happens at any
change of any QSX frequency.
3. Sometimes, both displays jump randomly to weird frequencies, but radio
still behaves normally.

With  FT1000MP there is no problem, radio follows split on/off checkbox, QSX
frequency display stays as selected...
I suspect the reason may be the fact that IC706 uses a single synthesiser
chip for both VFO A and B...

[Dx4win] Ignore mode in real time and spots!

[Radivoj KAR]

I have the same issue here with PSK31. One solution is to uncheck all modes
except the wanted one in the Preferences?Station?Mode setup and check the
"ignore grey spots" box in Packet1 when wishing to use RTTY/PSK etc..
Then, you will see only the spots of the selected mode on the upper packet
window, and still see anything received in the lower one. Not the most
elegant, but is a solution if you wish to work only one mode...
But, I guess Paul can fix that issue.

Now the amazing thing is, I went back to version 6.03 and it does the same

Hi all,

My dreams were answered with the latest version of DX4WIN V6.04 which came
with the ability to "control" a 2nd LPT port under XP and thus use more than
one device which need LPT ports. In my setup, LPT1 is the rotor control, and
LPT2 now controls my band decoder (ON4AOI) via the computer, rather than
from transceiver output (ICOM IC756 ProII). Using the transceiver was never
perfect as the rigs output control voltages were not reliable.

So controlling the band decoder from LPT2, and when also using the cluster
spot window, with no station selected in main window, the band decoder
receives message to change antenna. So I am on, say 20m, tuning around,
having not yet entered a station, the band decoder receives the message that
I am on 20m and selects the appropriate antenna, fine! Then the spot comes
up on say 80m, the band decoder detect this and for a second or two changes
antennas, then reverts back to 20m. If the next spot is 20m, no problem, but
if next spot(s) are different frequencies then click, click, click off it
goes.

Is the any way that the software (controlling LP2, band decoder) can ignore
band selection from spot cluster window, while still accepting band changes
made directly from the transceiver??

OK simple answer is to write something in main window (i.e. station
callsign, single letter all more) but.

Would appreciate peoples comments

Ed,

the DX4WIN and YAESU MARK-V works not good.

When using LSB / PKT for PSK31, the Center Radio ALT+R works in opposite
way.
(I'am unable to set MARK-V for PKT and USB. Only to SSB/USB and PSK31,
but this works with large filter only, no narrow filter is possible).
In this point (filter / mode combination) the FT-1000MP was much better.

I was asking for correction since 5.01 version, but without success.

My opinion is that the PSK31 with the DX4WIN is not so good
(less sensitive) with comparison to MixW or WinWarbler.

[Dx4win] Band Master Interface

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Paul,

VE3NEA is distributing a very nice suite interfaced with HAMCAP (Band-Master
Spotter, IonoProbe and DX_Atlas). The spotting window of Band-Master is very
user-friendly, showing station position on the frequency line of each band.
However, if DX4WIN is open, Band-Master can't control the Radio.
Is there a chance that you interface DX4WIN with the Band-Master, which
would even more enhance it's performance and popularity.

[Dx4win] Spots change mode/freq

[Radivoj KAR]

I normally control FT100MP on HF. When going VHF, I disable the radio and
set Preferences to SSB/144MHz default to log VHF contacts, without control
of the VHF rig. However, incoming spots change Mode/Band in the logging
window and I must each time change them manually back to SSB/144.
Does anybody know how to keep spot window open and Mode/Band frozen to
default values?

[Dx4win] BV7: Direct printing on QSL cards

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Gerben,

Thanks for the info. My label position is different and it takes too much
cut-and-try to set it a the right place of the QSL card ! I have given up
and will stick the labels :) !

Best 73,

Radi/Rog,

I'm printing directly from DX4WIN to my qsl cards using a Epson Stylus C84.
My setting for the paper size is still on A4. Details of the 'Print QSL
label' window are:

Label width: 70 mm
Label height: 32 mm
Horz.pitch: 0.00
Vert.pitch: 0.00
Spacing left: 70 mm
Spacing top: 132 mm
Horz.shift: 0.00
Vert.shift: 0.00
Nr across: 1
Nr down: 1
Paper size: A4
Portrait: not selected

Printer properties:
Landscape
Paper size: A4

I'm using qsl cards that have about one quarter of the surface reserved for
printing the qso data (right top corner). Next I put the cards in portrait
position in the printer with the 'printable area' in the left-top corner.

Perhaps you can use the same approach for the settings in BV7.

It works very fine here. Using alternative ink cartridges of just about
12.50 Euro. I bought this Epson printer just because they are cheap and work
fine with alternative cartridges.

Regards,

Gerben - PG5M

Hi Rog,
I questioned the author of BV software: he suggested to use inkjet Epson
printer which can be set for the required paper size :)!
But, for printing several thousands of DX-ped QSL cards it is a bit slow and
expensive solution! As sticking labels in such situation is also too time
consuming, I guess the only solution is to chose the smallest "standard"
paper size (like DL  envelope), stick a QSL in the middle and on right side
of the envelope, and measure margins as it was on the envelope one wish to
print. This will allow using our fast and high-capacity ink cartridge
Laserjet printer. This is the way I figured-out that may solve the issue.
Have a try

Trying to print directly to reserved space on 140x90 cm QSL cards using
DF3CB BV7 software.
My HP Laserjet 4000 printer doesn't support this paper size so using any
other standard format changes all my  prepared "label" position and margin

Has anybody solved this problem and how?

Release 16 is coming along nicely:

  http://www.ad1c.us/dx4win/history.htm#16

The big thrust of this release, besides correcting reported errors, is to
resolve VE, VK, UA and UA9 callsigns operating portable outside their
default
country or CQ Zone.  For example, UA9KG/1 is European, not Asiatic Russia;
VE3IY/7 is CQ Zone 3 (BC) not CQ Zone 4 (ON); VK6DXI/2 is CQ Zone 30, not CQ
Zone 29.  This has resulted in over 100 additional callsign exceptions.  And
I
still have more work to do!

Please report any additions/corrections to me.

I would like to print all labels per callsign worked, regardless of

In other words, if I have worked the same station from the two

I beleive I can do that with DX4Win, but not sure how !

But, for printing several thousands of DX-ped QSL cards it is a bit slow and

[Dx4win] DX4WIN.CTY Release 19 available

[Radivoj KAR]

Hi Jim,
"After installing the new DX4WIN file, go to File -> Databases -> QSL
Managers. Then File -> Import QSL manager data. Use the same name as you
saved before. When it asks you if you want to overwrite the existing data,
say Yes. Do the same thing for File -> Databases -> Manager Addresses. Then
you can exit from the QSL database manager."
Sometimes, one gets  info over the air or cluster about QSL Manager that may
be different from the one in your list. As in this case one can't be sure
which is the correct one, it would be safe to keep both instead of
overwriting one of them. I frankly do not know how it could be done in
DX4WIN, but like email1 and email2 in the Outlook would be nice to have...
Anyway, thanks for keeping and updating this important database for DX4WIN
community!

Hi Dimitriy,

I understand. BTW, what format of paper do you chose to print QSL from your
Lasejet? I tried different formats choices available with my Laserjet 4000
and it always becomes very difficult to get BV7 configure text to get into
the right places in the QSL fields!

Hi,

I found it is better to set QSL received flags in DX4WIN, export into
BV7
and do QSL printing from there.
I haven't tried to do what you have been doing, so don't know if the
same
error message would appear after re-importing into DX4WIN. I do all my
QSL
management in BV7, it's a great program for this. The only limitation is
that it is too difficult to set-up printing directly to QSL cards if one
has
them with already pre-printed QSO data fields..

Hello list.

Anybody have experience with BV7?
1. I'm exporting my Dx4win log to ADIF for BV7
2. Printing on QSL's and mark QSO's - QSL received.
3. Export from BV7 to ADIF
4. From Dx4win importing ADIF file with option "Imported QSO sets Conf.
flag"
I got message "2259 confirmed QSOs were not found in the log"  - why ?

Hi,
You are lucky! My HP Laserjet 4000 has no custom paper setting and this
causes my problem...

Hi Kar !

I'm using custom paper setting 90X140 mm and "Unprintable Aria" - all
0's (zeros).
I have small dislocation (1-1.5mm) of printing text but all text in the
QSL fields.

Hi Dimitriy,

I understand. BTW, what format of paper do you chose to print QSL from
your
Lasejet? I tried different formats choices available with my Laserjet
4000
and it always becomes very difficult to get BV7 configure text to get
into
the right places in the QSL fields!

Hi Radi !
Tnx for answer.
Yes of cause BV7 its good program for management and printing QSL's.
But for tracking awards I need also QSL status in Dx4win!
By the way I'm printing on QSL's with already pre-printed QSO data
fields -
printing very GOOD.(I'm using HP LaserJet 6L)

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN v.7.07.02 Help files inactive: SOLVED!

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

After many differents tries, including rebooting after each, I've made it work 
finaly ! Seems System kept traces of old ver 6.04 in the Registry or somewhere 
else.

For anybody running ito the same problem, I am giving details of the

Final succesful procedure:
- saved all  DXL logs (home, expeditions etc..)and INI file
- deleted all directories/files and shortcuts of v. 6.04
- uninstalled v. 7.07.02 and deleted all remaining folders/files
- deleted two dx4win.chm shortcuts found in c:\docs and settings\RK\recent\
- re-started PC
- installed DX4WIN v. 7.07.02
- started DX4WIN in Demo mode: Help worked OK! Exit.
- copied DXL logs to Save directory
- extracted License Key to DX4WIN root directory
- started DX4WIN: licensed version opened, Help still OK
- opened F6GNZ.DXL log : Help OK
- Preferences: merged old INI file, wrote ini file, save and exit
- Help NOW WORKS FB !

Thanks to Jim, Mel and Paul for suggestions and efforts to help me solve the 
issue.

[Dx4win] IC735 remote control

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,

Has anybody succeeded to make work correctly the IC735 with DX4WIN? My IC735 I 
want to use in my portable location permanently times-out, with all 
combinations of polling times and retries, using standard 1200bps and 04 
address. 

Please respond to my Yahoo mail!

[Dx4win] IC735 control w. dx4win: test results

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi, 

In the meantime, to check 
if my interface (home-made G3VGR/OK2WY design 2-transistor interface) was not 
the source of timeout, I have installed the DXLab software Commander v. 8.9.5 
and selected IC735, 9600 kbps, 8N1, DTR high, RTS low and guess what: 
everything 
works superb! I can read and control VFO A/B frequencies, all modes and even 
control the split operation, setting VFO A/B frequencies, inverting them etc….I 
used polling interval of 350ms (200 was the default, but somebody on Internet 
sites suggested not to use less than 350mS). There were NEVER any timeouts.  
As a 
conclusion, something seems to be conflicting between dx4win radio control 
program and IC735.

Jim 
Hargrave, W5IFP was trying to help me and was playing with demo version of 
DX4WIN 
8.05 (he is not currently using your program) , modifying the IC735 original 
rig 
file. He sent it to me and I replaced a file in my dx4win 8.04. In preferences, 
I set DTR high, 9600bps, either 5000 or 350 ms @6 
retries.
Now, 
there is no more timeout. When I select radio/radio frequency control I can 
read 
and write frequencies and modes to IC735 without problem, and the changes are 
reflected in the logging window. 
But, 
when I close frequency control window, nothing happens in the logging window 
when I switch radio bands and modes. No timeouts, but looks like the program 
doesn’t poll radio data automatically. As I have taken out the “transceiver” 
jumper , radio doesn’t send this data automatically upon changes. If I activate 
transceiver it may work, but then the help file says there is a risk of 
collision with dx4win commands.
 
Would anybody knowledgeable with dx4win configs please check the attached rig 
file to see where the lack of polling problem 
might be. It seems the control now works at half and if the polling gets 
activated, I could use my rig with dx4win. I asked Paul for help, but even if 
he finds the issue, he doesn't have iC735 to check the end result.

I haven't subsribed to the reflector list to avoid my mailbox get filled with 
many messages I may not be concerned with, but am checking the reflector site 
from time-to-time. So, please respond also directly to my yahoo mail account!
Thanks and 73 to all,
Radi F6GNZ__

[Dx4win] IC735 remote control

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,

With a precious help of Jim Hargrave , W5IFP, the problem was solved! 

1. Original IC735.rig files in dx4win  versions 8.04 and 8.05 are WRONG! Rig 
timeouts occur regularly with these versions, whatever polling time and retries 
numbers are chosen. Good file was found by Jim in version 8.01 and maybe was 
also good in earlier dx4win versions.

2. With the good dx4win ver 8.01 rig file, to 
obtain log window's band/mode to reflect changes on the rig selections, a 
lot of combinations of polling times/retries were tried. In some of 
them, like with default polling time of 5000ms, it was required to open 
the radio frequency setup window and click on "read" to make logging 
window reflect the changes. The combination that works automatically and FB, 
without having to open the frequency setup window, , is 350ms and 3 retries 
(set in Radio Preferences). Some other close to these numbers may work also, 
but this one works all the time in my case)

3. Speed in ic735.rig  file and preferences was changed from 1200 bps to 
9600 bps and JU22 in radio was also set to 9600 bps (left position 
contacts). Also, "ci-v transceive" jumper in radio ( the last contacts on the 
right) was left ON.

RMX: transceiver band/frequency will not be reflected correctly in logging 
window if radio is tuned to a frequency out of HAM band limits, which is OK.


Now, I am happy again.. :)

Radi F6GNZ

[Dx4win] Re : IC735 remote control

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Just received following message from Paul (dx4win father):
Radi,

Found an email that may be of help to you:

The problem was within the radio file 735.rig shipped
with version 8.05 in the
[RC-Read
Mode] command.  In version 7.01, the LEN parameter is 7 while
in
version 8.05, the LEN parameter was 8.  Changing LEN back to 7 solved
the
problem.  The Icom 735 now works fine with version
8.05.
Best
Regards;
 Myrle,  K1HJC

[Dx4win] SteppIR and radio stop responding in Win7

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,
Installed DX4WIN 8.05 to my new Windows 7/32 bit Home and since have problem of 
controlling SteppIR and radio (all was OK on my old Win2000 PC):

SteppIR controller in General Freq. mode, controlled via FTDI USB/RS232 cable 
on COM7

As soon as I start DX4WIN and select a spot, SteppIR controller switches to 
correct frequency. But from this moment on, I can't control it any more. It 
will not swittch to any other spot frequency nor react to my FT1000MP band 
select buttons as it did before in Win2000.


Ocassionaly, I have a similar problem with the Radio control : I get a message: 
"Cannot open com 4 for keying, device already in use", then " radio interface 
was disabled" (radio is controlled with microHAM keyer and USB device routerIs 
this a known behaviour on Win7 or what may be the reason??? 8.0.7. I have to 
close and restart DX4WIN to get it working again. 


Is this a known behaviour in Win7 or what could be causing this???

Please help!

[Dx4win] SteppIR and radio stop responding in Win7

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

I found the reason, but do not know how to solve it: not only the SteppIR but a 
radio via USB Router and a rotor control stop to wrk from time to time: USB 
FTDI/RS232 converters stop to communicate with PC and i must plug them out and 
in again to make them work again!

[Dx4win] Windows 7

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Just found why my DX4WIN  often freezes and/or stops controlling SteppIR and 
rotor on my new Windows 7 32 bit Home Premium laptop: USB FTDI RS232 devices 
(MicroHAM Keyer/USB Router, FTDI USB/RS232 converters for SteppIR and rotor 
control just stop  responding for unknown reason. I have to unplug and plug-in 
the related USB cable, then it re-starts working, except that in some cases I 
need to exit DX4WIN and re-start it again !

Any suggestions how to solve this issue???

Jim and Joe,

Thank you very, very much for the info. I have already set my power saving 
options for max performance, but kept hibernate at lid closure and haven't done 
anything with USB power settings. Will now fully follow Joe's advice !

Best 73 and thanks again,

[Dx4win] Re : Windows 7 : it works !

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi Jim and Joe,
Have followed your advices and set everything as recommended. After first tests 
everything worked OK, including SteppIR and Rotor controls.

But I have still an issue I wish to solve. Since I installed DX4WIN in 
C:\DX4WIN folder I must always run it as administrator, and even when doing 
this, each time I open DX4WIN I must respond to the User Account Control alert 
message "do you want to allow..."

Any clue how to avoid getting this message???
73, Radi

[Dx4win] Re : Re : Windows 7

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi Jim and Joe,

My luck lasted short time. Everything seemed to work FB after application of 
all suggested power modifications, but there it is again, some of the USB/RS232 
ports/devices get again inhibited by Windows, though in much greater time 
intervals then before (sometimes all OK during 1 hour of operation, then 
suddenly SteppIR or antenna rotor stop responding  :(

[Dx4win] FSK RTTY with DX4WIN/MMTTY and microKeyer

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

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. RX is ok, on TX FSK COM5 port well indicates 45.5N1.5 and my 
FT1000MP goes to transmitt in RTTY LSB mode, I can change output power and 
MMTTY display shows normal RTTY display at TX, but nobody answers my calls on 
their frequency ! I have no test bench nor another RX at hand to check what 
might be happening. Has anybody an idea what's going on???

[Dx4win] USB interfaces stop working

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,
Some of messages in microHAM forum indicate loss of com between router and 
DX4WIN/TRX. 
As Joe Subich W4TV, already said several times in microHAM forum, all 
hibernate, sleep and USB energy savings should be disabled in Windows to avoid 
this.

But, there is another reason: the RF ! When I switch ON my Linear Amplifier 
and/or turn the beam towards my shack, there it comes: not only the router USB, 
but also the FTDI serial converters driving the SteppIR controller and the ERC 
antenna rotator via DX4WIN stop working. The ferrite RF suppressors on the 
related cables do not help. So, when you see interfaces stop working, check if 
the QRO was not the reason, HI!

BTW: Windows automatic update has updated my FTDI USB/RS232 drivers with 
version 2.8.24.0, dated 10.4.2012. But the Router 8.1.2 still kept the original 
FTDI driver v. 2.6.0.0. which still works FB.

[Dx4win] "Cannot focus a disabled or invisible window"

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,
On mt Win7/32bit laptop I had several times following error:
After stopping radio and switching it off, clicked Exit to close DX4WIN. But 
instead of exiting, only the log window closed, all others remained. Clicking 
on Fil-Exit or ant other command on DX4WIN command line, results in Error 
message: "An exception occured. Cannot focus a disabled or invisible 
window"...All other windows remain active, even the cluster continue working 
and I can send commands and receive messages, but the main command line is like 
dead!!! Task manager shows program as running, and says it is waiting a command 
from me. Have to close it by "force", HI!
Any reason for thios???

[Dx4win] Spots and spotter callsigns in BandMap

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,
Here is my proposal for one of the next releases of DX4WIN: 

A right mouse-click on the spot shown in the BandMap should display the 
originator's call sign and  the time expired since he had generated the spot 
(spots may have been already gone out of the visible part of the main spot 
window).

This would be very useful to see the propagation circuit openings for higher 
bands (50, 144 MHz...) in order to beam the antenna in right direction when 
trying to call CQ or listen for others in these paths...

Re: [Dx4win] Spots and spotter callsigns in BandMap

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi Paul, 
Yes I know this and have had set both to 20 minutes, but it will still be 
better to see in the BandMap the spot initiator and time (if less than what was 
set in preferences). If it is too much work for time info, at least the spot 
initiators callsign would be highly appreciated in the BandMap (with right 
click to avoid too much info display in this window). The issue is that the 
main spot window reflects spots of all bands and is filled in very fast so that 
individual band spots disappear (go above and must be searched for to see the 
initiator). Seeing several spots for example in 50 MHz window and knowing where 
they have been heard, gives immediately the idea what paths are opened..

[Dx4win] MicroKeyer2, DX4WIN, HDSDR and Omni-Rig

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

I have
updated my shack with an SDR which I want to use for reception only  and keep 
my existing MK2, FT1000MP+ IC706 (for
50 MHz) for transmit only.
I can control
SDR with HDSDR program and synchronise FT1000MP/IC706 frequencies/modes via the
Omni-Rig program interfaced with HDSDR. This combination works perfectly, but
now my DX4WIN becomes useless as it can’t read nor control the radio, saying 
“ie_Open,
device already open” and
“Could not
open COM4 for keying, ie_Open, device already open” when I try to Start the 
Radio.
So, I can’t
log the QSOs with related radio data (mode, freq’s) nor use spot clicks to set
up the TX/RX frequencies,  nor  control my antenna rotator.
Is there
any way to make the above combination work together???
Best 73,

Re: [Dx4win] [microHAM] MicroKeyer2, DX4WIN, HDSDR and Omni-Rig

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Thanks Joe ! I have created an additional port for COM2 and set Omni-rig to 
this port with 1200 ms polling time (DX4WIN polls each 500ms). All works fine 
except when I select both Sync from Omni-Rig and Sync to Omni-rig to be able to 
set TX to RX-ed frequency but also to set RX frequency by clicking on the 
DX4WIN spots. In this case my IC706 starts to "walk" frequencies, like it had 
gone to the scanning modeSo, must chose only one way sync...

Re: [Dx4win] [microHAM] MicroKeyer2, DX4WIN, HDSDR and Omni-Rig

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi Larry,
In fact, I have never checked the real polling rate, but in preferences I have 
set it to 500ms and supposed it polls the radio at that rate. Now, when you 
asked, I counted number of polls of my FT1000MP on its CAT blinking indicator 
and it blinked 30 times in 32 seconds, i.e. 1 per second...
Then I changed to 100ms and saved,  it started blinking rapidly several times 
then resumed exactly as before, at 1 per second. I changed to 5000: it started 
blinking rapidly then resumed again at 1 per second...
When I Stop the Radio in DX4WIN, CAT stops blinking (off). But when I exit 
DX4WIN, CAT lights permanently for about 10 secs, goes off in a fraction of 
second and goes ON for another 10 secs, because the microHAM Router polls it 
very fast and follows the frequency changes almost immediately. 
So, I think there is an interaction between DX4WIN and Router, making the 
polling time fixed to 1 seconds whatever is saved in Preferences !

Maybe Joe will tell us how it exactly works.

73, Radi F6GNZ

Re: [Dx4win] [microHAM] MicroKeyer2, DX4WIN, HDSDR and Omni-Rig

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi Joe,
I have created
an additional port for CAT 2 and set Omni-rig to this port with 1200 ms polling
time (DX4WIN polls each 500ms). All works fine except when I select both Sync
from Omni-Rig and Sync to Omni-rig to be able to set TX to RX-ed frequency but
also to set RX frequency by clicking on the DX4WIN spots. In this case my IC706
starts to "walk" frequencies, like it had gone to the scanning modeSo,
must chose only one way sync...

But,  I am still trying to make my setup
work together: 
1.   To listen with HDSDR and automatically
synchronize frequency of the related TX (FT1000MP/MK2 or IC706/MK1, depending on
which one is switched ON and selected by the Router tabs.  This works OK with 
HDSDR CAT to Radio via
Omni-Rig
2.   To be able to use DX4WIN for real time
logging w. frequency/mode  and to be able
to click on the DX4WIN spot and set HDSDR RX frequency to this spot (and TX
freq also via the HDSDT-OmniRig sync).  This second feature did not work when I 
tried to check both HDSDR sync
mode options (sync to and from Omni-Rig) as it created instability.
 
NOW: I had an idea to make at least  the spotting click work via the CAT control
from DX4WIN to HDSDR: Radio 1 preferences  of DX4WIN were  set to Kenwood
(protocol supported by HDSDR) on CAT COM 11 (created by Router) and the HDSDR
option was configured to control HDSDR  on the same CAT port.
 
 BUT: as soon I Start the Radio in
DX4WIN, I get the message that the “port is already open” and “radio is
disabled”.    WHY?? What am I missing??
 
The corresponding Router configs for splitter functions are:
FT1000/MK2/DX4WIN:  CAT1 = COM4,
CAT2:=COM2, PTT:=COM4
IC706/MK1/DX4WIN :  CAT1= COM8,
CAT2= COM3, PTT:=COM4

[Dx4win] DX4WIN, SDR rx and existing rigs

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

 
Because of
their performance and reducing prices, SDR receivers are becoming very popular. 
It is very
attractive to use SDR for reception and the existing Rigs/PA’s for
transmission. 
To make it
all work together, there should be a possibility to synchronize 
bands/frequencies
and modes between SDR RX and the existing TX. 
 
Alex,
VE3NEA has developed  a free software,
the OmniRig (www.dxatlas.com/omnirig/‎),
which permits synchronization of almost all existing rigs with the SDR RX via
the logging/control program; a list of programs already supporting OmniRig is
also on this site.
 
It would be
great if Paul would kindly add the OmniRig support to DX4WIN and include DX4WIN
to this list.
 
In
addition, software like DXLab Suite (CI-V Commander) can already provide
support for SDR consoles via its the "Secondary CAT Serial Port".  Other 
loggers can do the same - DX4Win
already has the technology in place with its "SteppIR" support - if
the developer of the logging software wishes to do so.
 
I have just
completed the assembly of the Genesis G11 SDR. It also has transmit
possibility, but only 10-watts, so I’d prefer to keep the existing combination
of DX4WIN/FT1000MP/Alpha77/microKeyerII w. SteppIR control for TX and  to use 
the G11/GSDR console for RX. The
Ft1000MP BCD band data gives me  in addition the  possibility for the
remote antenna switching via the BCD/decimal converter.
 
I
think this would be the great upgrade to the fine DX4WIN program and I am sure
users would be ready to pay for it!

[Dx4win] Polling rate

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

I have found a way to interface/synchronize  my SDR Console (for RX) and 
FT1000MP controlled by DX4WIN via microham Keyer/Router (for TX) . For this I 
am using virtual port pair creator VSPManager  from K5FR and RigSync program 
from W2RF.
The problem I am experiencing now is that it takes some delay between selecting 
frequency/mode on the SDR and having it refelected on the FT1000MP. To improve 
the situation I wish to reduce polling rates. Currrently in DX4WIN polling  
time is 500ms.

What could be a minimum polling rate that would not impair the DX4WIN/FT1000MP 
operation??
Also, FT1000MP CAT baud rate is set to 4800. How high could be increased to?

[Dx4win] Radio timed out

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Recently I have started to get the "radio timed out" messages from DX4WIN, 
without doing absolutely anything, not transmitting, not even touching my 
FT1000MP...
DX4WIN is in pure standby state, only receiving the packet spots.

What could be a reason for this???

Re: [Dx4win] OmniRig

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,
I have had a success to synchronize mu SDR RX and Icom IC706 using Omnirig and 
RigSync and having DX4WIN to control IC706 via MicroHAM Router (IC706/DX4WIN on 
CAT1 and Omnirig/IC706 on CAT2). Unfortunately, there was no way to have DX4WIN 
control the SDR RX, which would make this setup perfect.

Trying to do same with FT1000MP instead of IC706: many sync delays, MP timeouts 
due to poliing conflicts which couldn't be handled by the "old" binary CAT 
protocol of the MP. 

Everything would have been better if DX4WIN had integrated OmniRig support !

[Dx4win] DX4WIN Updater not responding etc..

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi, 

Today I tried to run a new Updater 6.07 (that had upgraded itself from previous 
version).
It opens and when I click on Update sometimes nothing happens for a while, and 
then it shows "not responding". I close and start again, it updates Custom 
Awards, then again "not responding" . Close, start again, it updates severan 
next items, and again spops responding..Then an error window shows up "Unable 
to check http://dx4win.ad1c.us/master/DX4WIN.MAS1.
I click OK, "not reponding". Start again, it shows 5 updated items then 
freezes..Start again, updates next item and again "not responding", and so 
on...Then again: "Download of UPDATE\DX4WIN.MAS2 failed, status=500 Can't 
connect to dx4win.ad1c.us:80 (timeout) " 

Updates items one-by-one and stops responding.


Also, during update of Custom Awards, Country files.. the horizontal update 
time line shows GREEN squares, then next portion is  YELLOW and after some time 
the rest is RED. What does it mean???

Re: [Dx4win] Dupes

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Cesare,
I think it won't be good to automatically remove dupes from the log! Better 
have them marked by a red colour and let user decide afterwards..

Re: [Dx4win] dx4win log QSL PRINING

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

I recommend using BV7 QSL print manager. It is VERY flexible and has large 
choice of label configurations. Just export DX4WIN log in ADIF and import into 
BV7. 

It is free and available from: http://www.df3cb.com/bv/

Re: [Dx4win] spots refreshing

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Lorenzo,

I never used DXFUN and do not know how to do it. But 
even if I new, I thaink it's spome issue they know. The site might be on
 a maintenance or they disconnect their cluster receiving node so are 
sending all thge time old stored spots (you cal see the time expitred 
from the spots and check when they have been logged since you try to 
connect. My regullar cluster F5MZN disconnected their spot function 
during the French contest to avoid people using spots during contest,,..
So, either wait these are re-established on DXFUN, or chose another cluster 
close to your area.

You should be logged to DX4WIN as Expert, then it should work.
