[Dx4win] Connecting FT-2000 to v8.02?

Even with (what I think are) all the correct settings, I don't seem to be able to get V8.02 to recognize my FT-2000. I am using a straight through DB9 to DB9 cable and I know the cable and computer port are okay because N1MM reads the radio just fine. When I open the Database, Radio test window

Re: [Dx4win] Connecting FT-2000 to v8.02?

I thought you might like to know what the fix was that allowed me to successfully connect my FT-2000 to DX4WIN v8.02. In addition to the list members that responded to my query, I also received help from Paul - the DX4WIN author. The fix (for me) boiled down to turning ON the DTR and RTS options

[Dx4win] RTTY control panel opens each time I start v8.02

Each time I start v8.02, the RTTY Control Panel opens with the rest of the windows in my layout. How can I stop the RTTY panel from opening each time I start the program? 73 de Paul, VE7BZ __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailm

[Dx4win] RTTY control panel opens each time I start v8.02 - solved

I think I have solved the mystery -- and must admit I feel somewhat embarrassed about the solution. In a previous configuration, I must have opened the MMTTY window and at that time the monitors were one above the other. In the current configuration, the monitors are side-by-side. I reset the mon

[Dx4win] RX and TX frequency not appearing in Notes field?

Even with $$ in the >Text to add to QSO note< in the screen I don't seem to be able to have v8.02 of the program post both the RX/TX frequencies to the Notes field like it did in previous versions. Am I missing something. I am using an FT-2000 in split mode when I expect the RX/TX to be posted. I

[Dx4win] Telnet issues

Being disconnected from a given cluster (regardless of connection type) is a common-place occurrence with DX4WIN. The reason is, it has no built in auto-reconnect routine. Plain and simple. I have asked the authors for this feature in a series of emails and the last answer suggested they would loo

[Dx4win] PCI-type LPT ports for CW keying?

I just added a Lava PCI-based LPT port for CW keying. After selecting the correct LPT port and saving my Preferences I find the PCI port will not key the radio. If I switch the keyer port over to an ISA slot LPT port, the keyer works as it should. Has anyone run into this and did you solve the myst

[Dx4win] PCI-type LPT ports for CW keying?

My thanks to Larry and Mel for responding to my query. I neglected to mention that I was using Win'98 (SE). The new Lava PCI parallel port card is the SPP or standard parallel port version and not the EPP or enhanced parallel port version. That having been said, I found the card addressing is non-s

[Dx4win] RE: A cautionary tale aka backup or else

Jim and others What great advice!!! Even though I have a copy and half-heartedly maintain a data backup of my log files, your suggestion to use the Iomega Automatic Backup program is excellent. Within minutes of reading your semi-annual plug message, I was downloading the program from Iomega

[Dx4win] YAESU FT-857 radio interface?

Is anyone using a YAESU FT-857 with DX4WIN? If so, what settings have you used in order to communicate between the radio and DX4WIN. There is no reference to the 857 in version 6.02 of the program. 73 de Paul, VE7AVV StoneyGround Station -|<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*><*>||<*

[Dx4win] Mode change problem in v6.03

I did the upgrade from v6.02 to v6.03 today. Everything works as it should, but I notice one oddity with v6.03 that I can't reproduce and don't see in v6.02. Here is what I see in v6.03: If I enter a callsign in the log entry window (for an SSB contact) and then press F12 to delete the call, I se

[Dx4win] DX Cluster Drop

Tony... The VE7CC-1 cluster is very new and not included in the existing cluster list. In the ve7cc program folder, open the cluster.dat file and add this line: ve7cc-1,dxc.ve7cc.net,7373 . Be sure you follow the syntax or format of the lines in order to ensure the entry is readable. My suggestion

[Dx4win] Radio timeouts?

I use a pair of Kenwood TS-850's. The interface to my computer is the N6TR -- ultra-simplistic design. It works great, but DX4WIN does from time-to-time generate a radio timeout message. If I spin the dial hard or I'm just cruising up and down the band, I can without difficulty timeout the radio. I

[Dx4win] Label layout?

I'd like to use Avery 5261 or 5159 labels for those occasions when I confirm numerous bands / modes for a DX callsign. When I enter the Avery number in the label manager, the preview shows the correct label number in terms of dimensions, but the layout is not altered and there is lots of wasted whi

[Dx4win] DX Telnet and DX4WIN

Is anyone running DX TELNET and linking it to DX4WIN for dx spots? By this I mean using the DX4WIN utility within DX TELNET for porting spots to DX4WIN. I followed the simple instructions to the letter but saw no spots over in DX4WIN. Your thoughts would be appreciated. 73 de Paul, VE7AVV StoneyG

[Dx4win] DX Telnet and DX4WIN

My thanks to everyone that responded (directly) to my post regarding the interlinking of DX Telnet and DX4WIN. Given the replies came directly to me and not via the reflector, others wouldn't have the benefit of your wisdom and suggestions. In a nutshell the problem is: I'd like to run DX TELNET a

[Dx4win] Re: DX Telnet and DX4WIN

Thanks to all the suggestions sent both direct and via the reflector I now have spots flowing from DX Telnet to DX4WIN. I think the major problem at this end was the fact that I had DX Telnet installed in the non-default directory. Once I copied all the files over to c:\DXTelnet and set up everythi

[Dx4win] Importing TR Log files?

After the recent JIDX contest I used LogConv (v1.73b) to convert my TR Log to ADIF format in preparation for import to DX4WIN. I like to have all my log data together in one place. I set up a new log in DX4WIN to test the import rather than bringing the contest data directly into my everyday log.

[Dx4win] Printing Log pages?

I'm just new to the program, but feel I have developed a fairly good grasp of its functionality over the past week. Importing my log from the previous logging program worked flawlessly. In attempting to print a few pages from my new DX4WIN logbook I notice there doesn't appear to be any control ov

[Dx4win] Country window to previous QSO?

I can't seem to find a simple answer to this question in the manual. Here's the scenario... I'm connected and receiving inbound spots from my local DX cluster. I'm working in Real Time and I have a Country window open -- each new spot is checked against my log and the worked (or not worked) data a

[Dx4win] LOTW test -- works great!

Like many others I was delighted to see the arrival of LOTW -- even if it's only a beta trial. I read the online material, followed the instructions to the letter and uploaded my logbook (containing 7300 entries) in a near flawless exercise. It couldn't have been easier! That having been said, the
