You have to configure and enable that pop-up window.

Re: [Dx4win] Mailing list submission
First be sure that in file>preferences>Ext Data under Data Source is QRZ Online selected. If yes be sure that in the last section "Online callsign lookup" is enabled and in 1st row writes something like http://xmldata.qrz.com/xml/current/?username=[USERNAME];password=[PASSWORD];agent=[PROGRAM] If this is ok, it seems that the window is outside your screen limits. Go to file>preferences>Screen and put a smaller number in scale factor (the smaller nr you can write is 50 but be careful because letters will be too small to recognise and come back). Search if the window is now in your screen limits, pressing f3. ...73 de Kostas SV1DPI (One of SZ1A-EP6T) Στις 3/1/2020 4:26 μ.μ., ο Mike Newey έγραψε: Thanks Tim for the help.

Jim Thanks for the reply to this question and to everyone that contributed. I realise that ALT+F3 will update the external data (QRZ).
