Hello Paul.
Using DX4Win 5.03 the url
25 spots OH2AQ,http://oh2aq.kolumbus.com/dxs/dx25.html?|2
runs once but does not refresh - ever.
The vertical bar is shift "\" above the enter key.
The packet1 mode is "regular" "tcpip".
Is there some trick to getting this working? A setting somewhere?

In my DX4Win 5.03 manual it talks about how DX4Win checks to see

sometimes gives erroneous results, there is a way to bypass this check.

Ted I've been wondering why I have had problems and you don't.
I'm also behind a router and the windows computer also has

I have regular problems with telnet type sites that go down after a short time.
But the ED7ZAB-5 web site is the wrong continent unless it has some good

I recently went over the official ARRL DXCC countries list
and compared it to the list you get with F1 in the countries field of DX4WIn.
Here are some changes I would like to make.
1. Antarctica is listed as CE9 in the DXCC list, KC4 in DX4Win.
The only reason to change that is to maintain

I also have had the same problem for quite a while and it's quite annoying.

I believe that the telnet source asks for periodic acks and times

I notice that there seems to be an "extra" country in my country database.
It was first encountered when entering Ducie Island - my first added country.
It has the prefix and country name is "New but incomplete".
Is this some template thing that DX4WIN uses when entering a new country
or sh

I changed the directory for DX4Win and noticed the program was not working
correctly
so I re-installed into the same directory ignoring the warning not to do that.
My .IEP, .CTY and one other DX4Win.??? file was reset to the original default.
I copied over those files from a fairly recent backup
Thanks for your response Paul.
I always keep the list
of QSO's with the same station underneath the QSO window.
So I would typically see a number of QSO's listed in that window.

It looks like before printing, when I see the count of the numbers that

I can change the method for _those_ qsls to direct

I routinely mark all QSL's Method = Bureau
