John, I can't find it anywhere. Can you tell me (us) where it can be found?

Re: [Dx4win] Importing papar logs
Hello Cesare, Thank you very much for fast response. I did not know anything about FLE, just downloaded it now. I was using BV7 for QSL prints from the beginning, but did not know Bernd has nade the Fast Log Entry. So, will try it, though I still think it will take a lot of time to enter all paper QSOs even with this short method. But will see if my nerves support it, HI! Best 73 and thanks again, Radi F6GNZ Le Vendredi 15 janvier 2016 17h47, PY2YP a écrit : I did log all paper QSOs using Fast Log Entry by DF3CB which makes the task very fast and easy. After typing a given period you have to generate an ADIF file then import it from the DX4WIN. The nice side of typing, despite of being a little tedious, is that I did find several new band countries, most of them deleted ones, that I didn't know that I had. By the way I don't know any OCR smart enough to understand callsigns, if some one find one please let me know, I'd love to try it. 73 DX de PY2YP - Cesar On 15/01/2016 14:18, Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ via DX4WIN wrote: > I started using DX4WIN from its first version and logged all contacts since > up to the last version.

Hi Jim, Thanks for the suggestion. I myself AM retired, but have no spare time, HI! 73, Radi F6GNZ Le Vendredi 15 janvier 2016 18h14, Jim Reisert AD1C a écrit : Hire a secondary school or university student, or a retiree who has the time. You can always go over all the QSOs afterward and make corrections as needed. I do think the the DF3CB utility is the fastest way to go, especially if you only care about call/date/time/band/mode. I'm glad I did this back in the early 1990s when I had no station. -- Jim Reisert AD1C, , http://www.ad1c.us __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
