[Dx4win] THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED
You might share how you managed to recover everything Stu. When I spoke with you from work, it was looking rather gloomy. MY RECCOMMENDATION IS MULTIPAL BACK-UP'S A lesson that is learned by far too many AFTER they have had a data loss. Others take note!!! Another recommendation... From time to time, e-mail a copy of your log to yourself at work (Where backup is normally secure) or to a friend. It's always good to have some data off-site also. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of STU Sent: May 1, 2004 08:07 To: DX4WIN POSTINGS Subject: [Dx4win] THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED I would just like to thank everybody that responded to my hour of need. I had posted a few days ago: Can anybody give me some help to recovery 2 months worth of lost QSO's? I went to make a country up-date (KC6 to T8) and lost 2 months of QSO's. I have no idea how one had any correlation with the other. My log reverted back to March 2, 2004. No idea why it even picked that date. Is the information on my hard drive somewhere and if so how can I get to it? Any guidance would be most appreciated. Thanks, 73, STU W6TA With the help of all, I was able to recover about 99% of my lost data. I would like to pay a special thanks to Mel (VE2DC) and a EXTRA special thanks to Jim (AD1C) for their time and patience during those very critical moment. If you have ever lost log data you know what I'm referring to. If you haven't, I hope you never have to go through it. MY RECCOMMENDATION IS MULTIPAL BACK-UP'S. I now am using a IOMEGA automatic back-up program that produces up to 99 back-up copies on a rotation bases and up-dates every time I do a SAVE (Alt. S). This will increase my chances of recovering lost data tremendously. It's very cheap insurance, along with the fact it's hard to put a price tag on stress and panic while experiencing losing log data. It's a horrible feeling, trust me!! Thanks once again to one and all for your input and suggestions. See you in the pile-up's!!

[Dx4win] CAT
Hello all Using a Yaesu FT1000MP Mark V, I have just upgraded from v5.03 to v6.02 of DX4Win. Previously, the CAT light was on continuously on the rig. Now it blinks all the time, also creating some noise when it does (on 20m). Anyone using the same rig, having the same trouble or having found the solution ? Thank you for enlightning me (us ?) 73 Paul F6EXV
[Dx4win] CAT
Paul In DX4win go to File/Preferences/Radio and change the Poll rate (ms). This will change the rate in which DX4win polls your MKV. I have mine set at 1000 ms for my Yaesu FT-1000MP MKV and it works fine. With this setting the CAT light will be on every second, which is fast enough. As for the noise, are you using shielded control cable (DB9) between the MKV and your computer. If not I would give it a try. ...73 de John/KC9JS Twin Lakes, WI USA www.qrz.com/callsign/kc9js All my outgoing messages are scanned for viruses by Norton AV - Original Message - From: Paul GRANGER [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Sent: Saturday, May 01, 2004 09:56 AM Subject: [Dx4win] CAT Hello all Using a Yaesu FT1000MP Mark V, I have just upgraded from v5.03 to v6.02 of DX4Win.

I can't get the 1010 award in my custom awards window. It's there in the dx4win.awd file in the save folder -first one in fact - but I can't get it to come up in the menu that comes up in the custom awards box. Running 6.02. What am I doing wrong?? Karl K0CIE

Is there a way in 6.03 to import from the ARRL LOTW report? Some way where it will update (and only update) the Upl Conf flag? If I simply import the ARRL file into DX4Win, it of course replaces ALL files in a record, and I'd rather not have to manually set the Upl Conf flag on 500+ QSO's. - Original Message - From: WC7N [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: DX4WIN Group dx4win@mailman.qth.net Sent: Saturday, May 01, 2004 11:59 AM Subject: [Dx4win] [DX4WIN] Notice now that it is a Beta version so will set back and wait.
