Make sure you have at least one mode and one band selected in the station
preferences.

Try deleting old packet spots (SAVE\DX4WIN.PUT).  If that doesn't fix
it, try deleting your config file (SAVE\DX4WIN.CFG).

[Dx4win] problem

[smillick]

My version  8 dx4win gives the error msg. Fixed Column size must be 
less than column count. I must have hit the wrong button but can 
only bring up the file entry but not the country zone or other 
windows. Cannot it out. Will be updating in a couple of months. Thanks  K9SM

Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win - Elecraft K3 - Remote Rig

[N4QS, Dave Perry]

John,

In my case, I am using RemoteRig boxes at both the remote and control sites.  I 
have a Static IP at the remote site and I forward two or three ports that the 
two boxes use to communicate.  I am not sure if I prioritized the port 
connections in the routers at each end.  Will have to check.  No, I do not have 
Wifi cameras and other equipment actively engaged at either end.  No Wifi 
mouses/keyboard.  (I use Bluetooth.)  Not sure what you mean by backhaul 
distance.  The remote site is about 10 miles from my home (control site).  
Latency is normally not an issue.  I regularly operate major contests with full 
control of the remote K3 and all accessories.  Audio streaming is normally 
excellent.

Dave, N4QS

Interesting problem.  Are either of you using a Static or Dynamic IP?  Also, 
have you prioritized this port connection in your router?  Is there other 
router activity going on in your home like WiFi cameras, IP phones and WiFi 
mouse/keyboard and such?  What is the back haul distance between remote and ham 
equipment

Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win - Elecraft K3 - Remote Rig

[N4QS, Dave Perry]

John and Kostas,

I also have a K3/0 mini and I am glad to hear this problem happens to other 
users.  (No, not really!)  My case is a little different.  I never have a 
problem with DX4WIN at the control site losing connection to the K3 at the 
remote site.  Stays connected -- rock solid for hours on end.  I think I set 
the poll rate at only 2000 ms and set max tries to 3.

My problem is with N1MM+.  It loses connection quite frequently -- about once 
or twice an hour on a good day.  That will typically throw me out of run mode 
and I must right click on the band map to Reset Radios.  I figured that N1MM+ 
is somehow polling the radio differently than DX4WIN.  There is a setting to 
slow the polling 50% and 100% versus normal, but the same thing happens on all 
three settings.  N1MM+ does not have a way to increase Max Tries -- so that may 
be the problem.  I have recently sent my issue to the N1MM+ reflector with no 
response.

Another ham in our local contest club mentioned that he once had the same issue 
and his problem ended up being RF getting into the computer cables.  He cured 
it by adding toroid filters to the cables.  Since DX4WIN works fine, I am not 
sure that is the answer to my problem.  But it could be yours -- think about if 
there is any chance RF is getting into the pc.

Let me know what you find out.

73,

Dave, N4QS

I use a Kenwood 480 with remoterig and happens to me also. I believe the 
problem is that when dx4win looses cat control, deactivate the cat control (com 
port). Cat control via internet looses some packets from time to time. Dx4win 
thinks that lost the cm port and deactivate it.

I use the same setup with writelog also. When writelog looses the cat control 
the freq freezes, writelog continues to work and after some seconds finds again 
the radio.

Some others users complain about the same: Dx4win pop up a message every time 
it looses the CAT control - com port. Writelog behaviour would be much better 
to have.
