Luis,
In my setup the actual info shown in the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window comes from the RAC/Flying Horse CD data. I installed the RAC program to C:\program files\Radio Amateur Call Book (Actually the RAC install setup did it when I ran the RAC install program). In the EXT DATA setup window the very top slot has a drop down menu. The second item is: Flying Horse CDRom. Next to that is a slot to show where the Flying Horse CD info is located (C:\program files\Radio Amateur Call book in my case). I can open the RAC window from my desktop anytime with no interaction with DX4WIN. But when using DX4WIN the RAC info is also available directly to the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window. So what happens is the address from the RAC CD is shown in the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window. But then if I click on the callsign as I explained before the QRZ.COM page will open for additional info. I find that qrz.com has better more up to date info than the RAC. I also have the GOLIST installed on my C: drive so I also get QSL info from C:\GOLIST\GOWIN32.DLL. One more point. Right click anyplace inside the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window. A menu will open up. Be sure that there is a check (tick mark) besides AUTOMATIC UPDATE so the window will track the call currently in the main logging window. Otherwise it stays stuck on the last callsign that was entered. I think having AUTOMATIC UPDATE selected is the default but it won't hurt to check. Good luck Alan, K7ACZ We have had QSO's in 1999 (as K6ACZ) and 2009. I have been to Lisbon and Fatima. Very nice. And I greatly enjoy Mateus wine.

Working fine. No probs , but I thought that all info contained in respective QRZ.COM page would be showed in the External Data window , thus not covering DX4Win...

Be sure the ENABLE box is checked. Then when you start DX4WIN hit F3 to open the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window. (The main logging window must be active for the F3 to open the window). The callsign shown in the main logging window should now also appear in the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window. In the CALLSIGN/MANAGER LOOKUP window place your curser next to the callsign (or QSL Manger) callsign and hit ENTER. The QRZ.COM page for the callsign in question should now open in a new separate window. Hope this helps.

QRZ.COM Perhaps someone could clarify what should be done to read external data. I've made : - File / Preferences / Ext. data - Callsign lookup address > http://www.qrz.com/db/ - File / Save changes and exit - F3 > External data window (Callsign/Manager lookup) opened but nothing is shown - blank window... Anyone ? :-) Thanks de Luis, CT4NH -- Luis Sutil Teixeira ______________________________________________________________ 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
