Re: [Dx4win] QSL Labels for Multiple Calls
I wonder if the best solution would be to use one of the many QSL label printing products out there, many are free. You export to them in the same way I use a QSL service... using filters and ADIF. DX4Win has the tools to set/unset flags and dates to do it quite easily. On 2012-01-05 17:59, Bud Semon N7CW wrote: Although Kostas' idea is a good one and very useful, I agree with Paul.

Thank you for the suggestion. Still, the only customizable info is PSE or TNX QSL and a phrase that will be on every label, but will be the same on every callsign.But I see no solution if I want something else. _/For example/_, no comment at all on PJ7X label, and PSE QSL via REF on TO5FJ label. In other words, a fully customizable label text for each callsign. Instead of customizing the label one time for the whole program, how about a customizable label text per callsign ? 73 Paul F6EXV Le 05/01/2012 22:17, Kostas Stamatis a écrit : Hello Paul Group name is log specific. So you have printing preferences something like @@...73 de %% so dx4win will print pse or tnx ... 73 de groupname in every case So let's suppose you have your personal log. All qsos should be at group 1 named F6EXV. This will print Pse/Tnx... 73 de F6EXV The log with the multiple logs in group1 we have TO5FJ, in group2 PJ7X etc. the same command will print, depending on the group... Pse/Tnc... 73 de TO5FJ or PJ7X etc. I think this is the better way to handle this.

I have my main log F6EXV as a stand-alone log, so that statistics and so on are appropriate. I manage several operations like TO5FJ, PJ7X to just name 2, so I do not want to mix these calls with any other. When I have to print a label for TO5FJ, I have to go to Files/Preferences/Rep-Label and change the2 lines of comments. Then I print the lables. If I need to print a label from PJ7X to that same station, I have to go over all the process again. The difference in the label comments are not necesarily only the callsign. In other words, I wish I could define a label (size and comment) for each callsign. Then, when I open a different log, I should be able to select the TO5FJ or PJ7X label under QSLs/Print QSL label instead of modifying each time I change logs.

As it is now, I need to mark a different QSL method for the /1 QSOs and then remember to edit the text for the labels before I print those.

[Dx4win] DX4win ver8.05 with TS950sdx
GM all, I have been using various versions of DX4Win with the TS950sdx for some years now but a couple of days ago something went wrong and I have been unable to find the fault, if such it is. Now if I click on a spot in the band map I get a beep from the rig, the mode changes, and the red arrow in the band map moves to the new band/frequency but it only stays there for a second or so then reverts to the previous band/frequency. The frequency on the rig does not change. If I change band and/or frequency manually on the rig the arrow and the frequency at the top of the band map track rig as it should. Any ideas anyone? 73 Andy G3SVD __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Dx4win] band mode preferences
There are several places where I can select my band preferences and modes of operation so the unused choices do not get in the way of my particular operating bands and modes. It minimizes wasted time and mistakes. So under STATION PREFERENCES, I can select the bands and modes I use. Also in PACKET 3. But in the ENTRY WINDOW, I have to go through all the possible bands and modes when again I need to narrow them down to what I use in my particular operation. Did I miss the place where I can select my particular operating bands and modes, and not have the others in the way, in the entry window?. There are 38 modes to select from and 22 bands there How can I have only my bands and modes to show in the entry window to speed up the entry of contacts? 73 Steve Sala K7AWB DN17es Nine Mile Falls, WA 468 grids ARRL confirmed-6 meters 294 active entities ARRL confirmed-DXCC __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

Re: [Dx4win] Lost Key
The key file is in your dx4win directory (dx4w804) You should copy it to dx4w805 directory. Also you should copy the log files from dxw4804 to dxw805 directory.

Re: [Dx4win] band mode preferences
DX4Win doesn't work as you describe... you never have to scroll through the modes or bands you don't use. The modes/bands you enable are always first in the drop-down list, no need to scroll further. This way you can still log a mode that is not actively tracked. You can select the modes by pressing the first letter... since the active modes are first, you will always select the active mode. What would be useful would be a user configurable mode table as DX4Win is always behind as far as digital modes are concerned.
