[Dx4win] R: QO-100 and Q65

2021-10-28 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Ok Guy understood.
Because  I am logging SAT QSO OFF LINE... do you think i get the same result
if in the Freq (kHz) I manually write 240 ?

Tibor,
That works also since LoTW doesn't check for up and down band but your log
on LoTW remains not correct because You will have both Band and Rx band =
3cm and should be 13cm and 3cm

Hi guys.
I am quite active on QO100 since may, this year.
Uptoday i made some 230 QSO logging them with my  DX4WIN.
I must say that I uploaded my log to LOTW and downloaded reports with
confirmations.
All is ok for me.
My experience is different  of what has been advised by Guy.
I log my QSO100 QSO in this way:
Band: SAT
Mode: SSB Sub Mode SSB (or the mode performed) Sat name: QO-100 Sat
mode:Other.
My IC9700 is not cat controlled so Freq (khz) in the input qso window remain
blanck.
In this way I log my QSO and I receive confirmations via LOTW.
I do not manually edit the file that has to be upload to LOTW.

Hi,
Here is how I do it and below also for Q65 qso's

Example 

Log "call:xx"  with Band = SAT ==> this has been always the case for SAT
qso's Sat Name = QO-100 Sat Mode = other With cat connected your freq ~
2400.890

To upload on LoTW or any other logtracker You need to edit first your
exportname.ADI

Do a search after 3cm and replace it with 13cm Save the
*.adi and upload 

For Q65 qso's I log Mode = MFSK  and Submode - JS8 (can be any other submode
that you don't need)

To upload on LoTW or any other logtracker You need to edit first your
exportname.ADI Do a search after SUBMODE:3>JS8 and replace it with
SUBMODE:3>Q65 Save the *.adi and upload
 
That's it

2020-08-23 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Thank you Bernie.

Yes i did what you suggest.

I think that after having done once it should work al the time up to when i 
don’t clear the wsjt log file.

I can keep always the same file living dx4win making the choice of the new qsos.

Thank you very much for your help.

I think tomorrow i will be here once again with another “problem” may be our 
community is able to solve!

For the while all the very best.

Here’s The fix that work for me

I believe this started after a new update of WSJTX

Sometimes when WSJTX starts it tells you there’s an error ...but it doesn’t 
tell you what to do.





you will have to make a small edit to the wsjtx_log.adi file in the WSJT-X log 
files directory. Change the end of header marker from  to .

I found the fix on Google

This fixed work for me.

Have you checked that the ADIF import file is correct?  I seem to recall
that there was a bug and the ADIF file was showing 'ER' instead of 'EOR' at
the end of the record, or 'EH' instead of 'EOH' after the header.  It was
something like that.

[Dx4win] R: Problem connecting a IC7600

2018-08-10 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
I have had the same problem, if i remember well, starting with the newest 
dx4win release (9.XX).
Before the dx4win upgrades my 7600 has worked with the pc and dx4win flawless.
My scheme is very similar to yours: ic7600 connected via retro USB to PC and 
the SPE1.5K-FA connected to the IC7600 remote port.
I have found the solution using the VSPE software. Instead to connect direct 
the ic7600 to a real com i conect it to a virtual port.
You have just to switch on the radio as the first thing, than load the 
configuration of VSPE and, at this point (after have modified in the 
preferences dx4win from the real to the virtual radio port) load the dx4win.
It takes just few second and it works great.
VSPE software is free and it is not necessary at 100% to buy the licence. I 
bought the licence because, in this way, i can memorize the configuration of 
VSPE and at the start all is easier.
So this is my configuration and it works 100%.
In any case, give a try!

No, it doesn't.

Thanks for your comments David.

I have tried several things but the problems remains

When I click on a spot in the band map or in the spot window the frequency 
changes accordingly in the band map and in the logging window but after 1-2 s 
the frequency change back to the one seen on the radio. The mode has changed 
both in the logging window and on the radio. However, if I change the frequency 
or the mode on the rig it changes in DX4WIN. Thus, it is only the communication 
of frequency from DX4WIN to the rig that does not work.

Everything works if I use N1MMplus or Ham Radio Delux.

I can connect to a Kenwood TS-590 with DX4WIN.

The problem remains if I connect another computer, this time with Windows 10. 
N1MMplus and connection to the TS-590 works from this computer.

I have changed cables and ports without success.

The remote jack (CI-V jack) has been both connected and unconnected to my 
amplifier (SPE Expert 1K-FA) and it did not affect the result.

I have restarted the computer and the rig several times, but not in any 
systematical way.

Do you have any suggestions?

[Dx4win] R: CAT problem

2017-10-20 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Kostas i confirm the problem. IC7300 seems works ok.
But in the dx4win frequency window  there are erratic values. In any case i can 
point and click on the band map and the radio QSY correctly.
Problems are with the IC7600, radio nr 1 for my setup.
I click and it is changed only the mode.
If i click on the band map, the red arrow on the left hand side of the map 
remain where is the mouse pointer until i release the mouse button. Then it 
returns on the previous frequency. As i said, mode is changed correctly.
If i move the frequency with the vfo knob, dx4win read correctly the frequency.
Problemi s only for the point and click.
In the dxspot window if i click on a dx that is in snother band, the 7600 
change mode only but not fequency/band.
Dx4win 8.05 as worked without the minimum problem since day one with my 7600 
(and the same with ts2000 ecc ecc)
Something may be happen!

I believe there are not changes in code on cat control. Only Paul can say if 
these are the same files from Jim's site or new ones, so it is possible to have 
bugs. I assume you use files from Jim's site for these radios. don't you? Also 
please confirm that you have the same settings in both versions for the 2 
radios? Anyone else who has tried Icoms 7300 or 7600?

2017-10-20 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Hellò guys, nice to see back DX4WIN.

I am online with the 9.01 release and all seems ok but the CAT with my 2
radio.

I have an IC7600 and IC7300.

When 7600 is running if i click on the band map  instead of change the
frequency and mode i change only the mode.

When i switch to radio nr2 (IC7300) in the first instance, on the Radio
Frequency Control window (of dx4win) appare a frequency like 2.073.352,48
FSK441 (actual frequency is 14220 ssb).

I confirm that with the dx4win 8.05 all was ok.

Sent: Wednesday, October 07, 2015 1:00 AM
To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net
Subject: [Dx4win] DX4WIN Status -- Observations

First -- to answer AD1C's question I believe 8.05 was released in January
2011. Before that 8.02 was released in September 2009, 8.03 in December
2009, and 8.04 in May 2010.

Second -- to echo other similar comments I am a very long time user of
DX4WIN, since the late '90s. The fact is DX4WIN still works and does what I
need it to do and does it efficiently and reliably. But, my expectations are
simple: keep track of logs and QSL cards, help me track DXCC, and be my
day-to-day real time spot processing, logging, and rig control system. The
log management use is not to be underestimated: between my K7ZO log, my YN5Z
log, and NK7U's logs, the later for whom I have been the manager for 20+
years, I have about 400,000 QSOs to keep track of and I respond to 1,500 QSL
requests a year. Certainly there are more things I use a computer for in the
hobby, but I use other software for them. I did look at Log4OM a year or so
ago as a modern version of a logging program and software suite. It
certainly does a lot more than DX4WIN but converting my logs over was going
to require a huge amount of manual work if I wanted to retain detail beyond
basic QSO data. Yes, some of the Log4OM  features could be added to DX4WIN. 
But, this leads to the next point.

Third -- if we really want Paul to add features to DX4WIN we need to make it
worth his while. Someone's comment mention how using DX4WIN has saved them
from years of upgrade bills. However, this also means that Paul does not
have a financial incentive to spend time on DX4WIN. In other words, we are
getting what we pay for -- nothing. (Other than AD1C's amazing work which
earned him deserved recognition at Dayton.) So we should not complain. And
there are some among us who regularly spend way more on various pieces of
station hardware who would vocally object to a annual software maintenance
fee. The N1MM+ development team, who are motivated by something other than
money, have lowered our sense of the value and worth of software. That is
fine for them, but it is not fair to expect all other developers to follow
the same path. I have no idea how many DX4WIN users there are, nor how much
they are willing to pay for a new release of DX4WIN addressing the top
requests. I would encourage those that want improvements to DX4WIN to rally
the user base and present a financial case to Paul for the work. Other than
that, perhaps there is a way to open source the code and let others add to
it. And, if Paul rationally does not want to spend time on the software
going the open source route might be a great solution for him and for us.

Just my two cents worth.

Scott/K7ZO

[Dx4win] cw 500 filter

2015-09-27 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Hy guys.

Among other radios i have my trusty TS140 fitted with 500Hz original filter
and CAT system.

In order to set the frequency with DX4Win i use "kenwood" file.

My problem is that - all times - when i set a cw frequency my ts140 goes on
wide cw (2700 Hz) and i have to set the filter.

Is there the way to set the filter with CAT (or keep the previously setting)
? 

Thanks.

I am on the air since 1991.
I am using dx4win since december 1997 (release 1.07 if i remember well).
I think that this software is just perfect.
My wish list is limited to an improvement of CAT.
I know that is a very hard job but in my opinion is the only part that can be 
discussed.
I saw easy log. It gives a number of radio and a small customizable panel with 
the preferred controls for each one.
I really don't need an HRD cat system but something more than what it is given 
today.
That's all.

Mel,
happy to know that Paul is aware of the matter.
What you write is exactly what I founded. Yes, dx4win runs ok on VSPE but if
it is the only sw direct to that com.
You say about CI-V bus...well, the problem is shown even with my kenwood
ts2000x regardless to the speed: I tried from 4800 to 57600 and it is always
the same.
I mean... there is something to be fix not only for the Icom but for Kenwood
as well.
If it will work I will be satisfied.

OK Tibor... I tried out VSPE and it works perfectly... but DX4Win 
doesn't! It works as long as DX4Win is the only program polling, but if 
you generate traffic by trying to control the radio the DX4Win driver 
has issues... it is unable to handle traffic and collisions on the CI-V 
bus. This is a problem that Paul is aware of... and I hope he will 
address it eventually by improving the Icom interface.

This is the correct solution to your problem. Adding virtual COM ports 
to DX4Win is not because, even if Paul did this, it still wouldn't work 
without fixing the Icom serial interface.

Mel, 
come on it is not necessary  to ask - always -  for some of common or usual.
I do not talking about a common software. I talking about my logging
software and about a function I am looking for.
There are some software able to create virtual ports. I was advised to run
VSPE that seems to be just perfect for what I looking for but while other
software (for example HRD and ARCP2000) are working flawlessly dx4win "gives
numbers". So because it is not easy to find a third party software able to
accommodate, say dx4win and HRD on the same com, on the same radio, at the
same time, I am trying to ask  *if is possible* to thing about that by Paul,
developers of the software that I love. 
I am not interested about other software. If I was, may be I made a
different choice well before.
If you are able to find a software setup with third party emulator *running
flawless* I will be happy in the same way.

Oh I understand Tibor. Probably he has to make a little money to justify

I don't agree that supplying virtual com ports is a normal function of 
logging software. Can you gibe me one example of logging software that 
provides this function? I can give you many examples of logging software 
that doesn't. Writelog, N1MM, DXLabs, Logic, Win-EQF, Logger32, DXBase,

I may take a look at some Virtual COM port software and see if I can get

I think that dx4win is great. I wrote in my previous messages that for me

All the time I download a new logging software (believe me I have made it

We are just talking about possible way to develope our favourite sw and just
talking about my  - personal - wish list. It is the very first time that I
ask something for dx4win but I think that I am not alone about that. 
Because dx4win is a logging software and not a CAT I understand  that at
this time it is gonna be some of very tedious to start a CAT develop.
But because there are some CAT software (I mentioned HRD but it is not
alone: as I said kenwood owners are proud of their proprietary CAT program:
they are simply the best even respect to HRD) I think should be much better
to give the chance to dx4win owner to run at the same time 2 software on the
same com in order to CAT at 100% the radio and in order to enjoy the benefit
coming from either software.
I know that Simon is 1) a great Ham 2) is a great software developer BUT it
is not the only one and all the time a CAT software take live we should go
to the developer asking for that.
No, sorry, this is something related to dx4win.
Instead of spending time for a serious CAT interface, in MY opinion should
be much more interesting to find the way to give the chance of choice the
preferred CAT sw running at the same time with dx4win.

Why not? I really don't think Simon is motivated by business 
considerations... HRD is an altruistic undertaking... if he was out to 
make money there are better things he could do with his time. The same 
is true for Paul;)

It makes some money... but Paul has to pay for his development tools and 
every hour he spends on DX4Win is an hour he could be spending doing 
contract work at typically $50-$100 per hour depending on where he 
lives. I'm pretty sure his motive isn't profit. There are some Ham 
software developers who have accumulated enough money through other 
business ventures that they can afford to develop software just for 
fun... Probably Paul isn't there yet ;)

I agree if speed and accuracy are the most important criteria. (they are 
for me). There are other programs with many more... and useful... features.

BTW, go to the EQSL site and look at the pages on logging software and 
note the number of uploads based on software. DX4Win is ranked first 
with nearly 8 million QSOs uploaded. The only one close is Logger32 but 
that is free software (and you know about Hams and their legendary 
reluctance to open their wallet). Bear in mind that DX4Win, until 
recently, wasn't the easiest software to use with eQSL!

Paul needs to do a bit of work on CAT... maybe he will do it. But if I 
were in his situation I wouldn't embark on any new features until all 
the old ones are working first.

Ciao Mel.
No, i did not asked to Simon.
HRD is going to implement a fine Log with the 5.0 release and I think he
should...or would be not so interested in interfacing to thirdy party
logging software.
We have to keep in mind that HRD is free while Dx4Win is not. 
The com emulator is something, I think, I have to ask to Paul. 
It is dx4win that can't compete with HRD for CAT. HRD respect the log is
much more further.
And I think we are talking about software. So I can imagine that with some
hardware interface problems should be solved but, because something  can be
done on the software as well, here is my request. 

About HRD log...well I imported my 36000 qsos and was not so slow. What
impressed to me is that all the time I ad one qso it takes so much time
that, if I am a runner on some frequency, I certainly run faster than my
log!
After all I can confirm that dx4win is just the best software logging
software. Because I use it since 1.07 release (December 1997) I would like
to see as better as it can and I do not want to miss it due the CAT problems
But year after year...new radio after new radio, can be clear that the
problem is getting better. Today most of the home Ham radio stations are
built if not on a computer base...around a computer and all new rigs have
simpler connectivity.

Hi Tibor.

AFIK #2 is being considered... it might take a while... bugs need to be 
fixed first.

re #1... I think you should ask Simon to implement that in HRD since his 
program would create that requirement with any logging program. (Maybe 
he did... did you ask him?) I use multiple virtual ports as implemented 
my Microham and that works perfectly. As for DX4Win users switching to 
HRD logging... not a chance. D4W users use it for a reason... very fast 
performance and the most accurate award tracking. Did you try Simons' 
log? It uses Microsoft Jet DB so is SLOW! Here is an example...

On my not so fast hamshack computer to import 25K QSOs...

DX4Win (proprietary DB)... about 1 minute.
Logic8 (Foxbase)... about 5 minutes.
DXLabs (MS Jet)... about 30 minutes.
HRD Log (MS Jet)... about 30 minutes

DX4Win to open... about 3 seconds
HRD Log to open... about 30 seconds... that's a looong time when you are 
waiting ;-)

To be fair... I am sure HRD will get faster... Simon is an amazing 
programmer... but he can't make the MS Jet DB go any faster... I suspect 
Microsoft designed it that way to push people to it's SQL server ;) I 
believe he supports connections to other databases such as mySQL but 
that is starting to get complicated for the average user.

Also, using MS Jet DB does make it much easier to access your data... 
for example... you have almost unlimited ability to make adjustments or 
corrections to your log if you are familiar with ACCESS.

Nonetheless, you can't beat D4W for speed.

[Dx4win] wish list for 8.02 or later

2009-08-28 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Ok, i don't know if it is appropriate at this time to make a post like this.

 

Any way: I would like to ask a pair of things to Paul.

 

1)   we can understand that CAT is a very complicated matter. Dx4win do
that in a very primitive manner. But. now that dx4win has the band map
should be very interesting to run connected to the radio. Problem is that
many of us are using dedicated CAT software like HRD or, for the TS2000, the
ARCP2000. Many of use have more than 2.3 radio connected. The only way to
run dx4win together with such these software is a com emulator. I tried a
number of them but they show some problem with dx4win. Now, because dx4win
will be not a CAT program but it is simply the best logging software around
should be a nice feature if, dx4win itself provides  a virtual com system,
good for itself and good for us running a multitasking system. Should be a
nice touch now that the best cat program around (HRD) is going to implement
a logging  software by itself (HRD). Some people should be driven to migrate
from dx4win to HRD log.  

 

2)   This is much more simple. I ham an avid cluster user. All the time
that I connect to my node I do have a number of operations that should be
easy to implement like a macro or something like that. I mean that when I
start dx4win, my log should be connected directly to my node and should
clean all the previous spots in its windows. At the contrary they are all
manual opr.

 

Holidays are at the end.. Contest season is back to the door and seems that
propagation is going to do a better job than last year.

73 and good dx

[Dx4win] R: A strange thing

2009-08-23 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -
Tony,

thank you for your email.
I have downloaded the software and looks like just what I am looking for.
Incidentally I do not have the K3 but the TS2000X and, for what I have seen
there is no way to change the kind of rig.

One missing point on my previous message is: with VSPE all runs ok if I
connect only with dx4win.
When HRD starts dx4win starts "to give numbers"...
Any further ideas are welcome!

Tibor,

I tried the two virtual port software products suggested to you and neither
worked for me.  I then downloaded LP-Bridge from www.telepostinc.com
(freeware) and it works beautifully with my radio (K3) on COM1 and mmtty,
winpsk, and cwdecoder all operating on virtual ports, which direct data
through the same COM1 port used by DX4Win.  I am sending Larry, the author,
a donation as his product is terrific (my opinion).  I just learned of his
product this week and tried the oldest version first, then the newer version
and finally downloaded and installed the current "beta" product, which is
working well and loads in my computer "startup" file.

To have multiple software products share one hardware COM port and to work
as expected is wonderful.

I was frustrated and did not wish to spend a hundred or more dollars for a
hardware interface.  TRY IT - I AM CERTAIN YOU WILL LIKE IT!

Subject: [Dx4win] A strange thing

Hy guys.

My set up is a TS2000X with CAT made via Ham Radio Deluxe.

Connection Is made with a serial/USB converter @ 57600

PC is an AMD Athlon @ 1 GHz, 640 RAM and Win XP sp3

 

Of course if I try to connect DX4WIN to my radio, PC says that the com is
busy.

If I connect DX4WIN without running Ham Radio Deluxe, all is ok, band map is
ok, no problem. 

 

Yesterday in a forum someone talked to me about Virtual Serial Ports
Emulator freeware software (VSPE).

I immediately installed the software and after some minutes  I was able to
create a virtual com where to address Dx4WIN AND HRD.

Fantastic: when I receive a spot I click on that, it change me the setting
of the radio, HRD show all the new parameters and in the Dx4WIN I get the
call in the right place.

All works ok.BUT:

Looking at the band map, it flickers: the vertical, qrg line moves from left
to right and than again right to left.

The frequency showed on the top of band map start from the right one and
step by step goes down..down..down to zero.without moving the real QRG on
the radio.

On the QSO input window, the same happen in the frequency display. But even
the mode and the band are changing step by step without sense.

I tried to set the radio on 18140 SSB, on the band map the frequency starts
to move down. In the QSO window problem is that the mode changes to CW, and
so on and even the qrg moves. If I log the "qso" dx4win doesn't get the real
data but what is displaying at that time.

 

I have tried to reduce the com speed down to 9600 but nothing has changed.

 

So I returned to my old setting.but there is any way to fix the problem?

 

HRD + DX4WIN are just the best of the two worlds and being able to run them
connected to the radio is certainly fantastic.

[Dx4win] RTTY function keys (7.01)

2005-06-03 Thread Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI
Hy everybody.

After having set al the RTTY (MMTTY) "macro" I founded that something is
wrong with the "label" of each macro. The orizontal available space (from
left to right) is less than half of the screen and while you can change the
width of each key you can't modify the overall length.

It is something that should be happened many hears ago with the packet or cw
window, just can't remember.

It is happening just to me (Athlon 1GHz + 640RAM +win XP) or is a bug?

 

After that I re-email my problem with the qso input window when I am
connected with the cluster: I have no answer about that. Is it possible I am
alone???

I'm running a TS2000X controlled by the ARCP software.

(dx4win is not engaged to control the radio being the ARCP much more
versatile than dx4win on this regard) The band and /or mode change any time
I receive a spot via the cluster and it drive me creazy tring to run the
contest or even searching and pounching on the band. Each time I must check
that all is ok. Some time after having properly set the mode, tring to set
the band, receiving a spot I must return to set again the band. Band an mode
are stable only if I insert a callsign in the call field.

Steve,
  Thanks for the clarification on this issue. I did some more experimenting 
with the 7.01 demo and you're correct: the band/mode is consistent with the 
rig setting in the "Add real time" mode when connected to the rig and the 
packetcluster is active. I did have to reset the poll rate to something a 
bit faster than 5 sec to get the info to display consistently in a rapid 
manner. My apologies for assuming that this band/mode issue was still as it 
was in 6.04.
