Subject: Re: [Dx4win] DX spots mode display?
Should I have a MODE data column displayed in my DX SPOTS window for this
to work properly?
If so I could not find where to add mode information to the display?
There is no MODE field in the DX Spots window. DX4WIN determines the
mode from the frequency, based on the CW/SSB cutoffs in your QSO
preferences. DX4WIN can not determine the mode for Digital spots
(RTTY, PSK, etc.) unless the mode was put there by the spotting
station, which shows up in the spot comments field, for example:
DX 14080 T2GC up 2-5 RTTY
This can also cause problems, for example:
DX 10110 R0ABC up 2 when SSB?
This will cause DX4WIN to switch the mode to SSB because of the spot
comment.
So in summary:
1. no mode field in DX spots window
2. CW/SSB determined by spot frequency and QSO cutoff frequency preferences
2. digital spots must have the correct MODE specified in the spot comment
