I don't have an XML subscription and yes, the F3 feature works in my
setup. There's always a catch, though, and in this case by "works" it
means supplies and populates the basic contact info like the operator
name, address, state, and IOTA. Sorry to say that if you want additional
details like a county, grid, or anything else, you probably need an XML
subscription (disclaimer - -that's my guess since I don't have it).

Actually, I think you have to pay and have an XML account (the minimum
account) for this feature to work? Yes, you can do lookups by going to
the website and searching....or my doing the Alt F3 technique (which
does NOT pop up a populated window with the info...rather just takes
you to the QRZ website), but to use the F3 technique and have the
window pop up with the info in the DX4WIN program, I'm pretty sure you
have to be a paid XML account user. Perhaps someone who is NOT a paid
XML account member can try it and chime in yes or no. Of course, for
the F3 to work properly, you also have to configure it correctly in
Preferences.
I'm 90+% sure you have to be an XML paid subscriber on QRZ to fully
use the F3 popup window.....because "back in the day", when I couldn't
get mine to work and the popup window was blank....I posted on here
and asked and was told by DX4WIN folks that was my issue. I
joined/paid for the XML subscription, and then....without changing any
config in DX4WIN...it started immediately working.
