I have hundreds of  duplicate calls (same day, UTC,etc) due to wrong merge

I have been deleting individually but its a lot of work and waste of time.
So Is there other method to delete them all instead to go one by one ?
I would appreciate your help!
Thanks and best 73 de Luis, CT1EEQ



Hello Luis,

I don't know if the offending QSOs share the same group number with the 
good ones or not. If you can separate the bad QSOs by group number then 
you could try to filter the offending QSOs and remove them by using 
multiple QSO operations/Delete QSOs.


You could also try to export the log (File/Export/DX4WIN8) and then 
create a completely new log and import the exported log into the new log 
and select Imported QSO is ignored as the option for the duplicate QSOs.


I hope that helps.

Re: [Dx4win] QSL DATE filtering

If you go to file | preferences and select the QSO tab, there are two
options for searching.  One has to do with callsign, the other is date.
You can change that to date range.



Please read the title of the message carefully! Once again I'm not 
trying to filter QSO date but the QSL date.


The range seems to work for QSO date filtering however it does not seem 
to work for QSL Date filtering although the DX4Win help so suggests.


Maybe the function is correct but the help needs some correction. Anyway 
the range feature for QSL date filtering would be a nice function.

[Dx4win] QSL DATE filtering

2015-07-04 Thread Teijo Murtovaara

Is it possible to filter the log with QSL DATE range?

It seems that I can only filter greater or equal to the specified QSL 
DATE and with 01/01/1901 for empty ones. DX4Win help is not very clear 
on this. The note concerning the dates (QSO and QSL) says: DX4WIN can 
search for dates that are greater and equal to the date specified, an 
exact date or a date range.


It seems that this note is correct for QSO Date search but not for QLS 
Date search.

A definition of a dupe would be good.

Does it mean a dupe like in a contest i.e. a separate contact that has 
been made on the same band but at a different time?


I think that in this case it is a bad idea to remove the dupes from the 
log. The dupe contact might be the only one that is both in your log and 
the other stations log. The first occurence might not be in the other 
stations log at all for some reason (he/she worked somebody else, had a 
computer glitch etc).


On the other hand I have noticed that my log contains some QSOs that are 
separated only by seconds. They have resulted by importing the same log 
twice into another logging sw that I used before DX4Win. This kind of 
contacts I have removed manually which was time consuming.

Re: [Dx4win] RDA contest and Convert ADIF to DX4WIN

 The RDA (Russian District) contest was this past weekend.  The
 Convert ADIF to DX4WIN program has some ability to populate the
 Custom Award fields from the RDAs you logged:

 http://dx4win.ad1c.us/adif2dxq/

 It appears N1MM and maybe WriteLog are both supported, but probably
 not Win-Test.  If you used a logger besides N1MM and WriteLog, and
 want me to add support for RDA, please send me the ADIF file exported
 from your logging software.

 73 - Jim AD1C


Hi Jim,

I noticed that in DX4Win the districts of MA area (Moscow city) are  
limited to MA-10 but in the RDA contest there was a station that gave  
me MA-12 which is also listed in the RDA web page  
http://rdaward.org/rdac1.htm (link RDA List). So the following  
districts are missing from the dx4win.awd:
MA-11 NOVOMOSKOVSKY
MA-12 TROITSKY

I tested adif2dxq briefly yesterday with the RDA contest adif file and  
it seemed to populate the award fields. I have to check again that the  
populated fields are really the ones that I had in the WinTest log.

[Dx4win] Problem with report listing of German SDOK

I am using DX4Win 8.05 and dx4win.awd version 3.26.

Whenever I try to generate a German Sonder-DOK report I wil get an  
error dialog that shows:
An exception occurred! TAwardSystem.AddEntry

I have also tried a couple of other custom awards and they seem to

 Be careful.  For instance, there are one or two new reports.  If you

A handy tool for this is k3diff (http://kdiff3.sourceforge.net). It shows you

[Dx4win] Error creating new selection names

2003-04-19 Thread Teijo Murtovaara
A couple of weeks ago I found out similar problem with Logbook window, =
Report editor.

When you right-click on the report window and choose new (report) to =
create a new report and try to edit ??noname report??=20
to replace it with a meaningful name DX4win does not allow you to type a =
different name for the report if there exists another older report =
starting with the same first letter.

For example:

If I try to name a new report as LogBook2, DX4win chooses immediately =
existing LogBook -report when I hit the letter L.

The solution at the moment seems to be to use a different starting =
letter in each report.

 If the first letter you type matches an *existing* selection, you are =

 For example, I have a selection called 2000 IARU.  Say I want to add =

 I'm editing the 2000 IARU selection, which I am!  If you save this=20
 selection, you will have over-written the old one.
=20
 I found a work-around, which I don't recommend (it involves editing =

(in=20

[Dx4win] Lost everything

2003-02-05 Thread Teijo Murtovaara
I would not count on a diskette as the only backup. Over the years I have
thrown away many bad diskettes. My log-file is 18M+ so it will not fit on a
diskette even if I zipped it. I do not want to span the zipped file over a
couple of diskettes either. I have burnt my log-file on a CD. For those who
have a fast internet connection (not a dial-up) a good idea is to upload the
file to a server on the Internet or send the file by email to some of the
available free web-mail accounts.

[Dx4win] Small improvement

2002-11-20 Thread Teijo Murtovaara
I receive a lot of cards from the buro because I am very active contester. I
have now more than 200k QSOs in the log and I have been satisfied with the
program so far. When I answer the received QSL-cards I usually have a stack
of them on the table and I type them one by into DX4WIN. When I am typing
the calls into DX4WIN and confirm/label them with f2-key I usually routinely
push f8-key and immediately start to type the next card on the stack without
looking at the screen.

This routine makes it very fast for me to answer the received QSL-cards but
I would like to see a small improvement in the next version. This good
routine is sometimes disturbed when the received QSL is a new country and
DX4WIN opens a dialog to submit the QSL. Adding an audible tone when the
submit-dialog opens would help me a lot. I would immediately stop typing and
look at the monitor. This small feature would make the best logging SW even
better.

I have already tried to change Windows sound properties without much of
luck.
