Re: [Dx4win] Label Printing Not Aligned

2013-01-07 Thread Kostas SV1DPI
When you go to print (QLSsprint qsl labels then in the print qsls 
window, then print) then setup) finally you are in Report Setup window. 
Then if you go setup you can choose (among other things) Printer's 
paper. When you make experiments with a sheet, printer knows you have a 
sheet. If you want to have the same results with avery labels, go there 
and tell printer that you have a sheet agn even you really have labels. 
The other way is to make your experiments with labels.

See my notes abt printing here

I believe the sum of the labels' dimensions you gave are bigger than a 
sheet. Make more experiments with smaller dimensions especially with the 
vertical pitch.

See how it works in my page

I agree that dx4win needs update urgently, especially with its LotW 
features.
Easy upload to LotW (integration with TQSL), DXCC submission giving 
priority either LotW or cards and having in mind all the new things ARRL 
asks, as auto connection in DX clusters is a must.
The most important reason for someone to remain in Dx4win is its'

I would think twice before jumping to DxLab. I have one friend who uses it, and 
I have downloaded and installed it several times. But I am not impressed. It 
might do a few neat things like the automatic upload to LOTW, but the overall 
user interface is very poor. DX4WIN excels in many key areas such as its fast 
and reliable database, user ergonomics, integration with a wide variety of 
radios and assessories, etc. I have always felt that DX4WIN is an operator's 
logging program. I have even tried DxBase once or twice and always quickly 
migrated back to DX4WIN. As mentioned, Jim's commitment to keeping the 
databases up to date is also unmatched with any other program. And his many 
useful utilities such as the Lotw to DX4WIN comparison application are all 
added benefits. 


DX4WIN's relative weaknesses are on the reporting side. It doesn't fully 
support the online DXCC applications process and Lotw uploads could be 
improved. The Submission report cannot be exported to ADIF format. There would 
always be plenty of other enhancements that could be added, but Paul seems 
content to keep the program stable at this point in time. Sometimes stability 
and realiability are not all bad! But yes, I would like to see Paul work on 
some enhancements and take more input and feedback from his users. 


By the way, I recently tried to uninstall DxLab after testing it for a few 
days, and it would not uninstall properly! So I guess you get what you pay for!

Re: [Dx4win] LOTW Support

2013-01-07 Thread Lou Dietrich

Kostas,

You are 100% correct. If Jim AD1C didn't supply the support, I would be 
gone. Thank goodness Jim has stuck with us for so long.


DX4WIN is a remarkably stable although feature poor application and the 
users deserve some attention which, for what ever reason, appears to 
have waned.  I, like a lot of others, have been loyal DX4WIN users since 
the beginning and have stuck with DX4WIN even as user requests have 
fallen on deaf ears.


Automatic cluster start on boot up shouldn't be that hard to implement! 
Nor seamless LOTW interface. Nor enhanced rotor control. Nor reports 
which show confirmed via LOTW, card or both. Nor is integration with CW 
Skimmer. Nor many of the other enhancements requested.


We all understand that the author of DX4WIN cannot make a living on 
DX4WIN. That is a given. However, DX4WIN is woefully behind the 
technology curve and paying users deserve (and have earned) updates.


I, for one, will be staying with DX4WIN as long as Jim AD1C provides 
support or until I find looking at the rather bland, feature poor DX4WIN 
displays turn me off.  (I am getting close!)


Paul, we need to know your plans for DX4WIN. Are you going to update it? 
Are you gathering user requests to be released at some later (near?) 
date? Or should we users plan to move onto another platform?


Respectfully,

Lou N2TU

When you are in the Print QSL window, then select Print, the Report 
Setup window will pop up before anything is actually printed. If you 
then select Preview instead of Printer in the Destination pull-down, you 
will get a preview screen where you can see exactly how many pages of

 It might do a few neat things like the automatic upload to LOTW,
 but the overall user interface is very poor. DX4WIN excels in many
 key areas such as its fast and reliable database, user ergonomics,
 integration with a wide variety of radios and assessories, etc.

I don't normally get into logger wars but can't let this pass.

Every logger has unique features in its user interface that some
like and that others despise.   However, DXKeeper's user interface
is one of the best - hands down - user ergonomics are superb.

DXLab Suite uses a multiple application interface so many of the
features  - particularly integration with transceivers and
accessories - are found in other parts of the suite.  This
provides the opportunity for the user to learn one piece of the
suite at a time and install only those features he/she needs.
It also allows its developer to improve one feature without the
risk of breaking others.

Re: [Dx4win] LOTW Support

2013-01-07 Thread Bud Semon N7CW
  Snip

Since we all have opinions, I guess I will put mine out there.

I like the LoTW interface.  I have a significant number of logs from
different locations in my master DX4Win log and each has to be treated
differently by TQSL.  So an automatic upload doesn't make sense to me.  The
number of clicks is so small now as to be trivial.

The easy ability to handle logs from different locations and to generate
reports that either combine or ignore those locations is also a plus.  A
number of years ago, I looked at the DXLab Suite and there was no way to
handle this issue - perhaps it has changed now.  But when I politely
queried the author about a way to handle my problem, I received a very
short, very curt reply - Not now and Not ever.  That ended any chance of my
switching to his software.

My occasional off the record inquiries to other ops about the DXLab Suite
have resulted in comments similar to what Dave, N4QS wrote.  I know there
are a number of folks that swear by it.  It's great that we have so many
choices and I really hope that Paul continues to support it, even at the
level he is supporting it now.

I understand all of the requests made by Lou, N2TU (although I don't agree
they are all enhancements) except the handling of CW Skimmer.  Can someone
explain to me what that is about?

And lastly, along with the other comments,  I have to say a huge THANK YOU
 to Jim for all his support over the years.

73, Bud  N7CW

Re: [Dx4win] LOTW Support

2013-01-07 Thread Barry
When I got a new laptop with Win7 a year ago (XP prior to that) I had to 
update from v4.07 to 8.xx, as some v4 features didn't work with win7.


I was quite surprised to find little had changed over those 10+ years.  
However, as I'm fairly inactive these days, I can deal with it  :.)

for Support for choosing to different Rotators like you can radios for 
a couple of years now, but nothing. Another logging program is going 
to do that I was told, so will may be doing the same unless I get some 
clue that it may be coming a long with a LOTW update. Also a supporter 
since the beginning.  73 John

I agree that dx4win needs update urgently, especially with its LotW 
features.
Easy upload to LotW (integration with TQSL), DXCC submission giving 
priority either LotW or cards and having in mind all the new things 
ARRL asks, as auto connection in DX clusters is a must.
The most important reason for someone to remain in Dx4win is its' 
database (tnx Jim AD1C). Because the most important feature for a 
logging program is to keep my qsos safe (and this works 100%) and the 
second one to tell me right what DXCC entity is every call. So i 
remain here as long as Jim is also here!!!
