Re: [Dx4win] PSK and Comm Ports

2016-03-21 Thread NS4Jay 
I read through the PSK help index and still didn't see where to set PSK PTT 
comm port. Then I found it after right clicking on the PSK window function keys 
and saw settings. 
Now have both radio control and PSK PTT working.

Maybe try asking K8UT directly.  He might not be a DX4WIN user
anymore, or might not be on the reflector.

Not true!  By default, when installing DX4WIN, the calendar pop-up at
startup is ON.  However, all of the events in the calendar are years
old.  Because there are no active events, the calendar does not need
to open on startup.

When I released the new Updater (8.0x), the default configuration was
to load (update) the calendar from the 425 DX News site.  Because
those events are current events, DX4WIN opened the calendar at
startup.

The latest Updater has many configuration options for Calendar, Master
Calls and Membership Lists. If you don't want something updated,
please read the instructions and you should be able to figure out how
to disable those updates:

http://dx4win.ad1c.us/updater/

I'm not picking on Cort, but I spend a lot of time documenting the
work I do for DX4WIN.  It's disappointing to see the same questions
come up again and again, when they could have been easily answered by
reading the documentation, including the DX4WIN documentation.  If
there are areas missing in MY documentation, please let me know and
I'll be happy to add them.

Two things:

1. When the window comes up - go to the menu on the window and close it.
2. Go to preferences, QSO tab and uncheck "Check Calendar at startup"

I'm trying to play with "LoTW Credits to DX4Win Awards Utility" by K8UT. 
This utility requires first DXKeeper to download the credits from the 
LOTW. I did install the DXKeeper followed the instructions but not 
succeed to download the credits from the LOTW. The bar graph shows the

Which leads to my question. I know how and where to set the Comm port to

also run the PSK window or do I have to set up to run PSK with the second
Radio preferences set to the different PSK Comm port?

I wanted it.  It actually worked quite well with an ink jet, BUT.

A couple of thoughts on consumer grade printers.  Ink jet printing is
hopeless if it gets wet and I have had people request a replacement card
because the postie dropped the letter in a puddle or something.  Laser
printers don't print very well on heavy card just not enough heat to fuse
the toner properly, yes some have a setting for heavier paper.  I'll let
others decide if their laser fuses the toner good enough but I have gone
back to labels and a laser printer.
