Re: [Dx4win] Save Directory

[Ian Trusson via DX4WIN]

Also how do I stop DX4W9UPD.LOG file being saved into My Documents folder.
This file is of no interest to me so would prefer it not to be saved at all
or possibly saved in DX4Win SAVE folder or in a sub folder of My Documents.

Regards
Ian G3RVM

Hello Roger,

The program remembers where you last saved a file, and keeps putting it
there until you change it.  

File > Save As
Open up the window next to Save in: and navigate your way back to
dx4w901\save and save it there.  Now it will keep saving it there.

For some reason my DX4Win wants to save to the desktop. How can I change it
to save

Re: [Dx4win] ver9

[Ian Trusson via DX4WIN]

FAO: Paul KK4HD

I echo K4WI’s request that an option  be provided in DX4WIN to avoid having to 
press F9 every time the program is started so the auto atu is set for the 
particular frequency and the program is ready for entering a QSO. I think this 
should be the default and should be fine for most people using the program. I 
find it a nuisance to have to press F9 every time I switch on my radio and the 
program before I can start operating.

Re: [Dx4win] The F9 problem again

[Ian Trusson via DX4WIN]

Also I find it tedious having to press F9 every time I start DX4WIN so that
(1) DX4WIN reads my radio frequency and (2) the radio frequency gets
communicated to the ATU in my Expert amp so I am ready to either receive or
transmit and (3) DX4WIN is ready to log my first QSO. Could that not happen
automatically or would that present a problem for some reason? I have
mentioned this before but now might be an opportunity to do something about
this? Certainly this problem does not exist with the contest logging
programs like N1MM.

Ian G3RVM

1.  Exit Add Real Time mode (ESC) before turning off the radio, or...

2.  Use Add Off-line from the QSO menu item if you want to keep the logging
window "open".

Re: [Dx4win] question

[Ian Trusson]

David

But why, when DX4WIN starts, doesn't it come up automatically with the QSO
entry blank? Every time I start DX4WIN I have to hit F9 so the frequency of
my radio is received into the QSO window from the radio via the CAT
connection and the frequency is sent to my Expert 1K-FA amplifier to set the
ATU for the correct frequency sub band. When I first switch on before
hitting F9 I hear nothing from my receiver because the ATU is not tuned!

However DX4WIN has always had this problem so I guess it will not get
changed any time soon so any further detailed info you could provide about
using AutoHotKey to overcome the F9 problem and automatically connect the
packet window could be very useful to many of us.

(Sorry, I think the formatting on my 1st attempt to send this confused
things. Hopefully this will work better.)

I haven't seen it actually log the contact. It does pull up the last entry,
but it's filled with all the info (time, date, frequency, etc) from the QSO
so it's not in the "ready to log" state.

For an overkill solution, you could use AutoHotKey and script it to blank
out that field (a few F9's). I use it to set up my "operating environment",
which includes connecting the packet window and a few other things.

[Dx4win] ADIF file export

[Ian Trusson]

I would like to export an ADIF file from DX4WIN for Club Log but I have
inadvertently deleted the ADIF option from the File Import/Export window by
mistake. I will need it for my next  LOTW upload as well. 
 
Please can anyone tell me how I can get the ADIF file format option back?

Sorry not being a PC expert, I don't understand what you are saying. Has the
v 8.03 CW sending problem been identified? Here I send using DTR on COM1 and
have no LPT port on my new W7 PC. Do your comments offer a solution for me?
What do I need to do exactly?

 I don't need a LPT driver but it occurred to me that since

 that driver anymore that the cw generator was moved to the

 Hi Ian,
 
 I think what Dave is suggesting is to install the LPT driver 
 anyway by running lptdriver in the dx4w803\drivers 
 directory, then see if your COM port CW keying works.
 
 Could others who are having the CW keying problem please try 
 this possible solution and report back to the reflector?

I am using Windows 7 and always log on as an administrator. Right clicking
the DX4WIN logo and clicking run as administrator makes no difference as far
as I can see. I still cannot get the CW keying to work with DX4WIN.

 Maybe someone with the problem can try this to tell me if it 
 works (it worked in one of my friends).
 Do a right click on dx4win icon and in properties choose to 
 run it always as administrator (if you have 7 or vista).
 I wonder if XP users with the problem have administrator rights?
 Just an idea.

  HNY All,
  Like I asked before I like the following info
 From those that have the keying problem
 
  Example
  OS: VISTA HOME
  Brand of LAPTOP  = HP DV9700
  Real Serial on MB = NO
  Real serial via add on board = NO
  USB to serial = YES brand GEMBIRD
  To be sure check in control panel|system|devicemanager
  if the comport is installed ok
  normally it should be
  9600 = Baud
  8 bits
  None=parity
  1 stopbit
  None=flow control
 
  DX4WIN SETUP
  COMPORT = COM1 (my case)
  DELAY = 1
  CW = DTR
  PTT = RTS (can be set to none if using vox or full break in)

[Dx4win] CW keying issue?

[Ian Trusson]

I have been following the CW Keying Issue thread in the archive, but the
thread seemed to come to an end on 28 Dec 2009 without a resolution.

I have the same problem here. I am using v8.03, Windows 7, USB to serial
converter, COM1, PTT delay 1, DTR = CW keying, RTS = PTT. When I start a CW
keyboard message the FT1000MP locks on key down.

Is there any more info on this problem?
