Jim, Yes, the problem is solved. Mike referred me to Kostas's instruction sheet, which worked perfectly. Thank you for following up. 73, Jim, AA8OY On Wed, Mar 1, 2023 at 1:43 PM Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: > Jim, is this problem solved? > > On Sat, Feb 25, 2023 at 4:47 AM Mike Cizek W0VTT > wrote: > > > > Hello Jim, > > > > The window is open, but it's hiding somewhere.

Re: [Dx4win] Can't open window with File, Radio and Help commands
Hello Jim, The window is open, but it's hiding somewhere. This comes up regularly and Kostas has posted instructions on finding lost windows. The one you want is the Master window, so search for [W-MASTR] 73, Mike Cizek W0VTT [Dx4win] Lost Windows in version 9 Kostas SV1DPI Wed, 27 Jun 2018 02:54:24 -0700 >From time to time, I have seen questions about "lost" windows in version 9. I found a general solution for this and I post it as a future reference (for me as well) Go to file>preferences and write your configuration file. Close the dx4win Go to dx4w903/save directory and rename config.dat to config_old.dat Edit with notepad (not with word) the file config.txt At the end of the file there are several sections with the first letter [W-XXX] and below something like Height=192 Left=300 Top=300 etc Find the window you are interesting, for example packet window is [W-PACK] Change the value of Left and Top to zero. example Left=0 Top=0 Save the config.txt Open dx4win Go to file>preferences and Load configuration file Choose dx4903/save/config.txt (the file you just saved) Now the window will open on the left-upper corner. Move it where you want and write again your config.txt as a backup for the future. Don't forget to open your own log again as dx4win loaded the Samplelog! If something that you don't like happens, close to dx4win and go to again in dx4w903/save directory and rename config_old.dat to config.dat -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net On Behalf Of Jim Pyle Sent: Friday, 24 February, 2023 23:25 To: DX4WIN Reflector Subject: [Dx4win] Can't open window with File, Radio and Help commands I closed DX4WIN and reloaded the program a while later.
