[Dx4win] 5T5T
I worked a CW call 5T5T on 30 meters 20 April and 4 May. The call is not in QRZ.com and I can't find any information about this call. Maybe Pirate ?? need QSL info if this is a legit call. I need it for 30 M. Anyone have any information for me ? 73 Dick KS0M After the game,the King and the Pawn go into the same box. (Italian Proverb) Richard C. (Dick) White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A.

[Dx4win] Lable print problem
For some reason DX4WIN will only print one call to a label. It has always printed multiple calls until this week. I have opened Preferences and find the settings unchanged. Under Print Labels / Edit the settings are MAX QSO's = 3 Labels across = 3Labels down = 10 Under Preview the labels all show only one QSO per label. I have reset everything and no change. Anybody have any ideas ? Dick - KS0M After the game,the King and the Pawn go into the same box. (Italian Proverb) Richard C. (Dick) White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A.

[Dx4win] THANKS JIM
I had a problem with DX4W805. I could not open the full program. All I could get was the entry window and nothing else. When you think you might have lost over 65K calls in a log, you panic. I emailed Jim, AD1C, and he sent me 3 suggestions. The first 2 did not resolved the problem. I finally did as Jim said and uninstalled the program and then downloaded a new 805 file an installed it. All is working ok now. All it took was 3 emails to/from Jim and I am back to normal again. I think Jim is a prime example of amateur radio. He is always willing to help anyone who asks him for help. He did not make me wait several days to answer my first email, but answered in less than 2 hours. The other 2 emails were also replied to quickly. My 38 years as a ham, I have always been able to get help when needed. My thanks to Jim and all he does for the amateur community and for his efforts with DX4WIN. Dick - KS0M Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It is the way it is. How you deal with it is what counts. Richard C. (Dick) White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A.

Re: [Dx4win] LoTW problem v 1.14.1
Several of you have said that LoTW will not accept a ADIF file and needs a tq8 file. In the HELP file it states that LoTW will accept a ADIF and CABRILLO file. I did not find any prompt about a tq8 file and figured it was not needed in v1.14.1. I checked my ADIF file and it has the calls to up load correct. The ADIF file is located in C:\LoTW as ks0m149.ADI. That is the file I selected for the TQSL to sign and upload. It did not do that. I tried to attach the file to email and LoTW cannot find the attachment in the ADIF format. I have tried twice this morning to up load the file with no success. If this version needs a tq8 file how do I make one ? My CERT is active and my profile info is correct. I am at a loss as to what to do next.

Re: [Dx4win] LoTW problem v 1.14.1
First of all want to thank all of you who have sent me help information about my LoTW up load problem. I finally got the file up loaded and confirmed. I went through the process for a third time this morning and it worked. During the process there is a file that asks if you want to allow dupes. I checked my file and there were no dupes so I selected NO. This time I selected ALLOW DUPES and the file was up loaded and a window came up that said the file was received by LoTW and credit for the 14 calls I sent. I don't know why that made a difference, but it worked. I am sure there were no dups in the file, but LoTW thought there was. Thanks again for all the help. I just hope it works next time I up load. 73 DICK - KS0M Lord help me to be the person my dog thinks I am Richard C. (Dick) White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A.

Jim / AD1C I finally have my full log back, thanks to you. I could not get the ks0m.~xb file into DX4WIN at first. I finally saved it on a memory stick, changed the name to ks0m.dxl and then had DX4WIN open it and save it. All QSO's through May 12 are now back in the log. It sure is a relief to get it all back. It took me a while to understand what you were telling me. But, when you are 4 months away from being 87 years old it just takes a little longer to understand. I did put a call in the log and I did see the modified sign pop up. I was not aware of why it did that. It has been a while since I read the DX4WIN Manuel JFrom now on it is backup, backup, backup every time I add calls.

[Dx4win] New Computer
My new computer has been built and I will be converting to it on January 12. I need suggestions as to how to move my radio programs from the XP Pro computer to the new WINDOWS 7 / 64 bit computer. I use MMTTY 168A / N1MM 12.12.2 / DX4WIN 8.05 and MixW 2.19. I believe for N1MM and MMTTY I can install the basic programs and then install the latest up grades. DX4WIN is version 8.05. I can transfer my file but how do I get the program and key on my new HD? On my last up grade it was done as a download on line. If I need to install the program and don't have a CD how can I get the it on my new hard drive? I think I will need to transfer the key and other files. I have saved some posts on this but they don't give me enough information. My MixW will have to be done the same as DX4WIN.

My thanks to all who tried to help me solve this problem. I think Paul's statement below is the answer to why I cannot import the ACLog .0 file into DX4WIN. The ACLog 3.0 by N3FJP has 2 options to export a file. One is the ACLog format and the other says ADIF. But, I get the same result with either file I use. I have spent too much time working on this to continue and will not try to import the file to DX4WIN. I will just use the ACLog file even though it is not as simple to use as DX4WIN.

[Dx4win] Problem
My club recently had a special event operation, W0C. It was logged on another computer using the N3FJP logger ACLog 3.0. The file reads AclADIF.adi. I do have the AClog 3.0 on my hard drive, but never use it. The log was sent to me in ADIF format. I have tried to import it to my DX4WIN log with no success. Of the 538 Q's I get just 214 of them in a new file that I created. Yes, I have one dummy call in the new log. No matter how I try to import the log it will not put all 538 calls in the log. Anyone have any experience with this combination that can help me ? Dick KS0M Richard C. Dick White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A. white...@sbcglobal.net Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply.

[Dx4win] TX5TES
I worked TX5TES on 17 meters at 0014z 14/7/10. DX4WIN does not have a prefix or country listed for this call. QRZ says it is Yves, F6CTL, on Tatakoto Is. in the Tuamotu Archiplelago, IOTA OC0066. What is the prefix to use for this call and what DXCC name do I use ? TX in the prefix window does nothing to identify the country it is in. I am not a IOTA chaser. But, he was calling CQ and I could not resist answering him :) 73 Dick KS0M Richard C. Dick White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A. white...@sbcglobal.net Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply.

[Dx4win] FYI on 4O prefix
I worked the 4O/YU1YU call yesterday, CW, and found that DX4WIN did not recognize it as Montenegro. I entered a fake 4O call and it worked ok. I also entered other 4O/YU3XXX calls and it still did not know what country it was. The country data base was looked at and it is correct. For the $o/YU1YU call I put Montenegro in the prefix box and the call is now in the data base. This is no big problem for me, but I wonder why this happened ? Evidently the 4O/YU combination is confusing to DX4WIN. 73 Dick KS0M Richard C. Dick White Fulton, MO. 65251 U.S.A. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.

[Dx4win] Kosovo and CQ accepting as DX
OK, so in a contest, what prefix will be Kosovo ? If I work a YU, YT, YZ or other prefix now considered Serbia, how will I know which country it is, Serbia or Kosovo ? Or, what prefix do I set up in DX4WIN or N1MM to log it as Kosovo ? It appears to me that CQ is jumping the gun before a lot of questions are answered.

[Dx4win] Numbering Problem
I just did the up grade from v. 5.03 to v. 7.2.15 with no problem and all seems to be working ok. But, I did find a glitch that apparently happened last August in V.5.03. In my new 7.2 log and old 5.03 log file I found a QSO numbering error. The first 59 numbers are blank. No QSO's at all, nothing. What should be number 1 is now number 60. I recall importing an ADI file last August for the SCC RTTY contest. It said it had imported 3 QSO's when there was supposed to be 63 in the file. I am not sure what happened, but I re-imported the file and all seemed ok. This was not an up grad problem with V.7.2. But, I just discovered it during the up grade. Question: How can I get the correct numbering back as it should be ? As I said, #60 should be #1 and all the rest of the numbers are not correct. Thanks and 73 Dick KS0M Richard C.

FW: [Dx4win] Numbering Problem
Duane, Thanks for the suggestion. I did a delete on each of the 59 blank QSO logs and it worked ok. Had to do one at a time. But, my log is now back to the correct numbers. I tried your suggestion at first and did not see any change when I deleted nr 1. Then I found out it was deleting the higher number first. Had to scroll down the log to see that. Anyway, I am back ok.

[Dx4win] UA9S and UA9W
Last post on this subject. The information about UA9S and UA9W was taken from my DX4WIN log. I still have my old WJ2O log on the hard drive and looked at it. My last post is not as correct as I thought. I think DX4WIN may have made a correction on some of the calls when I transfered them. For ON6NIO - I only put the zone and oblast info in my WJ2O log AFTER the QSL had been received. That info was taken from the card. At this time I accept what DX4WIN prints. But, I still check the zone when / if I receive a QSL card. But, in looking at my WJ2O log files, I found the same confusion we have been discussing. For instance UA9SCD Orenburg Oblast 167 Zone 161979 UA9SHU Orenburg Oblast 167 Zone 17 1981 UA9WCQ Oblast 84 Zone 17 1980 UA9WOT Oblast 84 Zone 171990 I found this confusion in all the UA9S and UA9W calls I could locate. So, who knows what is correct. In a contest I am going to take what the other op sends me and hope for the best when it is scored. I don't use DX4WIN in contests so it is not a problem. I will continue to check my QSL card info against what is in the DX4WIN log and make a correction as needed. Richard C. Dick White[EMAIL PROTECTED] Fulton, MO. 65251 :I'm not over the hill.

That is, for the 12 and 40 meters bands. It does not show anything in the boxes for the other two bands. No W to show I worked them. If I click on the 10m or 17m box, I get a message saying cannot select a qso that does not exist. Yet, both QSO's are in the main log and the report is telling me they do not exist. There are no W or M indications on any of the boxes for the other countries. Can someone help me ? As it is now, I can't check to see what countries I worked or which ones I QSL's. I can go to each call in the log, but try going through 32K calls and find that info. I don't have that much time. Help appreciated. 73 Dick KS0M Richard C.

[Dx4win] HELP again
I have been trying to get a reply for help with the problem as stated below. My last post got me two replies. Neither had a solution. I sent a request to Steve KJ4F on January 26th and have not received a reply. I sent a e-mail to DX4WIN HELP at [EMAIL PROTECTED] It was rejected as the address was unable to find. I would like to get a fix for my problem. Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction I need to find the help I need ? ThanksDick KS0M PROBLEM : DX4WIN problem:When I open the report - DXCC - band = all mode = all file to check my DXCC progress I find that I am no longer getting everything. In the boxes for each DXCC country I only have the C for confirmed countries. I have lost the W and M for worked and mailed QSO's in all 335 countries. Example: Worked ZD0SXW on 4 bands in 1933 during a one month period. In the DXCC reports it shows the two I confirmed as C ie: 12 and 40 meters It does not show anything in the boxes for other two bands. ie: 10 and 17 meters. They are blank. If I click on the 10m or 17m box I get a message saying cannot select QSO that does not exist. Both QSO's are in the main log, yet the report is saying they are not are not there. I have no W or M on any of the boxes for any country. They were there the last time I checked a few weeks ago. I did not change any parameters that I am aware of. Can someone help me correct this ? As it is now, I can't check my progress or keep track of the mailed requests. 73...Dick - KS0M
[Dx4win] HELP
I have been following a thread on the RTTY reflector about ZD9 calls. When I checked my reports file I found this problem: ZD9SXW - worked 4 times in 1993 Bands worked = 18 - 28 - 7 - 24 MHz When I got to reports - DXCC - all and zoom down to ZD9, I find this - It has my 7 MHz and 24 Mhz bands as confirmed with a C. It does not show that I have worked the 18 and 28 MHz bands, yet, I have them in the log. All 4 QSO's were entered the same. What happened and how do I get the report to show the W as worked for these two bands ? ( for some dumb reason, I did not qsl there two bands like I did the other two). Dick KS0M Richard C.

[Dx4win] back up help
I have tried to back up my log file to a floppy without success. Here is what I have tried to copy the log: File / save as / 3 1/2 floppy a: / bkupks0m.dxl / save /enter / close log file / open a:\ / a:\bkupks0m.dxl / enter a fatal error has occered reading the log file A window does come up saying it is writing QSO file and the SWL file. Thus, I can't open the file on the floppy. What can I do to copy my files to a floppy and be able to access them ? What other files should I copy besides the log file and where do I find them ? I don't don't have a CD burner. Help appreciatedDick KS0M Richard C. Dick White [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fulton, MO. 65251
[Dx4win] Thanks
My thanks for all of you who replied to my question about uninstalling DX4WIN. A couple of you asked me why I would want to do this. Answer: I have had big problems with the computer crashing at least 10 times a day, even on startup. We isolated the major part of the problem to my Outlook Express and Internet Explorer program. It was corrupted. A new HD was loaded with everthing but my program files ( DX4WIN, RTTY etc.) and tested before putting it into my computer. When we put all my programs back, the only time it crashed was in DX4WIN. We assumed it was the DX4WIN program. I really did not want to risk the uninstall / reinstall thing. In a moment of brilliance, I put in another 128 megs of RAM to give me a total of 256 megs of RAM. You guessed it, all my crashing problems went away. The computer works much faster and it has not crashed for 3 days. DX4WIN was not the problem after all. Now I can concentrate on my slice and my putting.

[Dx4win] Thank you
My thanks to all the replies about finding what calls are selected for label printing. It is a simple thing to do. So, I have learned how to use another feature of DX4WIN. The two methods wereto 1: F8 - Y in label box - enter - log 2: print labels - under destination, check preview click ok . I like this as it shows the actual labels as they will be printed. I found a couple under BURO that were to be sent DIRECT. I received 9 replies in a short time. There may be more as I have not down loaded my e-mail this morning. 73Dick - KS0M Richard C.

[Dx4win] QSL INFO
I have looked in the manual and can't find out how to find something. I want to see a list of what calls I have checked Y for labels before I print them or just to be sure I have all those maked that I want to print labels for. How do I find this ??

[Dx4win] Notes this CALL/QSO
Consensus of the replies received: Put the new name/QTH in the notes for this QSO box. My thanks to all who replied to my question. I had already figured out to put the info in the notes for this QSO window. But, that renders the notes for this call rather usless. If I work a call today that I worked 2 or 5 or10 years ago ( I have done this) and the operator and/or qth are different, putting the info in the qso box is ok. But, I still have the old info in the CALL box ,which has nothing to do with the current operator or current qth. I can see where this automatic feature is an advantage to those who have several hundred qso's to enter. But, for someone like me, it is a disadvantage. I can't customize the info as I want it. It would be very helpful if you could switch this feature on or off as needed. For now, I will just enter all the names and QTH's in the notes this QSO box and ignor the notes this CALL box.
