Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win Conflict with WSJT

2024-02-21 Thread David Perry, N4QS
Hi Wes,

You missed the point of this thread.  We all know you can manually import an 
ADIF file from WSJT-X or any other program.

The original question was if there was any other way to import QSOs from WSJT-X 
besides a manual import.

Instead of manually importing every month or so, many DX4WIN users would like 
each QSO to be automatically imported into DX4WIN as it is logged in WSJT-X.  
This feature is already available with MMTTY when making RTTY contacts.

When bands are wide open like on 6M, it is important to be  able to import QSOs 
from WSJT-X in real time so that we can quickly make spots on the cluster to 
update other ops about band openings.  Manual imports take too long.

We need real time updates via UDP broadcasts like what most other leading 
logging programs provide.  Even if Paul would provide this advanced feature, 
there is no reason why you could not continue doing manual updates every month 
or so if you prefer. 

73,

Dave, N4QS

You can import WSJTX log right now …there is no need to fix anything.  I import 
about every month or so.

Just point your import to the WSJTX log, ignore dupes, and let it rip.

Yes, I also use Macro Recorder to run a script to import the log from WSJT-X.  
But it costs $50.  There are some free key mapper apps available, but I could 
never get them to work.  Macro Recorder works great and is easy to setup.

Paul should provide a direct way to import WSJT-X QSOs into DX4WIN.  We have 
been asking for this feature for years.  The simplest solution would be to use 
UDP broadcast functions that are already supported in WSJT-X and other loggers 
such as N1MM.  It is a shame that Paul will not address this

As less elegant solution would be to provide a one key ability to initiate a 
manual import of the WSJT-X file into DX4WIN.  In Preferences, we should be 
able to specify the location of the WSJT-X log file.   We should then be able 
to specify a hotkey that will initiate a direct import, but this would involve 
importing the entire log file from WSJT-X and ignoring duplicates.  This poor 
man's version would at least eliminate the need for key mappers.

The best solution is for Paul to provide the automatic import of each QSO as it 
is logged in WSJT-X via UDP broadcasts.  This feature works beautifully between 
WSJT-X and N1mm and many other general logging programs

To log WSJT-X contacts into DX4WIN:

I am using a separate program called Macro Recorder.

What it does is create a Macro that records all the moves one has to take to 
manually import the WSJT-X Log into DX4WIN.

Once that is done (the creation of a specific Macro) it takes no more than a 
few seconds to import into DX4WIN.

I have one button on the keyboard (in my case the UP button) that activates the 
specific macro. You can see all the "moves" of the mouse and the various 
windows as it runs through the steps to process it (importing the WSJT-X log 
into DX4WIN).

Again, this all happens within a few seconds with one push of the UP button.

Keith;

 How do you log to DX4WIN from WSJT-X?  Manually?  One of the reasons why I 
stopped using DX4WIN was for the fact I couldn't figure out how to log my Q's 
without having to import the log each and every time from WSJT-X.

[Dx4win] What is the future of DX4WIN?

2023-11-20 Thread David Perry, N4QS
To all DX4WIN users:

We really need Paul to do something.  He promised the databases would be
available on the next update, but that was four years ago.  I have been
asking for full integration with WSJT-X for years to no avail.  

This is a great program with a very active user base, but very little
commitment from Paul.  I wonder if Paul would be willing to sell his
interest in the product to a group of users.  We might all consider buying
him out and then forming our own development team and support group.  We
could even make it open source to encourage more developers to get involved.

Paul, I think it is about time that you let us know what your future plans
entail.  It is not fair to your loyal users to keep them in the dark and not
provide any further development.  We all scratch our heads and talk among
ourselves, but we just cannot figure out why you no longer want to support
your fine program.  Are you bored?  Have health problems?  Lost interest?  

Bottom line, what would it take to buy you out?  I would be happy to lead a
user group to see if we can do just that.  I would not do it for any profit
motive, and my time and money would be provided for the benefit of all.

In fact, if you were willing to talk I would suggest that we form a
501(c)(3) to make it a non-profit venture.  I personally think it would be
fun for the users to take ownership in the application.  The biggest issue
is can we find users who have the technical background to support the
product?  I have no idea what programming languages and database software
you use to power DX4WIN, but whatever you use is working great.  Would you
want to continue to provide overall technical leadership or would you prefer
to retire?  All of these questions and issues would have to be discussed.

Can you project your future revenue streams over the next three years?  Can
you provide actual revenue over the past three years?  If so, I am sure we
can monetize your financial interest in DX4WIN as it stands today.  You have
a great product that has stood the test of time over 25 years.  I am sure
you would like to see it continue well into the future.

I am a former partner with Deloitte & Touche and for the last 30 years have
owned and operated three family businesses.  I am now retired, but I have
the background to help in such a transaction.  My sole interest is to see
DX4WIN become more actively developed and supported for benefit of the
general ham radio community.

Paul, please let me know via the reflector or privately if the time is right
for you to discuss future options.

I would also invite any other members of the user community to express their
interest in joining me in forming a group to keep DX4WIN alive and as a
legacy to its founder.  Jim, AD1C, would definitely have to be one of the
founding user group members.  All if favor, say aye!

I am sure that if we formed a user group, we would have many users who would
want to volunteer their services to help with various aspects of
distribution, user support and development of DX4WIN going forward.  We
would need volunteers to upgrade and support the website.  Help with new
user installations.  Help with ongoing product development, etc.

If Paul can provide us with a price, we can then determine the best way to
raise the funds to buy him out.  We could ask for donations.  We could also
continue to charge modest amounts for new installations and updates -- but
only until the initial buyout amount has been paid off.  Thereafter, we
might explore a donation based model just to raise enough money to pay for
ongoing administrative expenses -- if any.  Again, our user group could be
creative and flexible as we work together to evolve the product overtime.  I
do not think this would be that big an effort to organize as long as Paul
thinks the time is right.  Ultimately, it all depends on what Paul wants to
do.

Paul, in the interest of your many devoted users, is this something that we
can begin to discuss with you?

Guy,

Thank you for speaking up on this topic.

The AD1C databases are not updated automatically, but the user does it
manually:
Help, Check for updates, selecting which databases to update from AD1C.

So what prevents the user from deciding whether to use the QSL manager AD1C

When creating a new version of DX4WIN (v.9), you cannot block users from
using the existing very good features.

Especially since these functions are available in the help. "Main Window:

So many years have passed since the last update (ver 9.0.0.1259 - 2019) that

Nice when I answer my own trouble ticket.  I unzipped a older country file
download from March (that I had downloaded manually).  Copied the
country.dat file into the save directory.  When I restarted DX4WIN, all was
okay.  My country totals going back to 1967 all matched.  I then did the
auto update of the country file to the latest version -- which shows
26-May-2023.  I assume I am back up and running.  Not sure why I corrupted
the country file.

Re: [Dx4win] How to search

2023-05-15 Thread David Perry, N4QS
Pepe, Jim and the others who responded:

Thanks for the easy way to search for QSOs without a grid.

I used the ! character in the grid field of DX4WIN to search for QSOs on 6m 
without a grid.  It turned out that of my 8,000+ Qs on 6m, the search revealed 
200 without a grid.  I looked them all up and found about 20 new grids that I 
did not know that I had worked.  I also found 4 confirmed grids via QSL card 
that had not been marked with a grid.  That put my VUCC totals for 6m at 940 
worked and 895 confirmed.  45 cards are now in the mail to confirm the others 
that did not confirm via Lotw.  Sadly, I also found a few SKs for grids worked 
in years past.

For anyone tracking the VUCC award, it is a good idea to search your log for 
any Qs without grids periodically.

Subject: [Dx4win] wsjt

Hey all, just got FT8 up and running here in the shack now and wondering on
how best to get the logs from WSJT to DX4WIN ver 9.09. I googled it and
found an interesting article by Dave N4QS but not sure if I am capable of
setting this up. I struggle with Win 10 and my ham software  just
keeping it running smoothly is a on-going battle. So any help/ideas on how
to set this up would be appreciated. I tried to have DX4WIN open at the same
time with WSJT but ended up with rig control conflict so starting off bad
already lol! Thanks, 73's Cort K4WI

Noll, that is an old QSO.  You might need to set worked cutoff to 0.  This is 
from Help:

Worked Cutoff

QSOs worked longer ago than the number of days specified will be marked as 'not 
worked'. Used to ignore QSOs that are not likely to be ever confirmed because 
they took place too long ago. The DX Spots Window for example will show the 
colors as if this QSO did not exist. A value of zero is used to ignore the 
CutOff and view all QSOs as 'worked' regardless how long ago the QSO took place.

Go to File, Preferences, Personal tab to do that.

[Dx4win] FW: Radio Time out -> Autoreconnect

2023-03-01 Thread David Perry, N4QS


Pablo,

Another way would be to click on Radio and then Stop Radio.  You can then
turn off the radio and DX4WIN will not give the error messages.  When you
later turn the radio back on, be sure to click on Radio, Start Radio, and
you will be all set.

Hello Pablo,

The easiest way is to not leave the program in Add Real Time (F9) mode.
Simply hit  after entering a QSO or string of QSOs.  Yes,
auto-reconnect would be nice, but it would probably require major
programming.

Is it possible to configure DX4WIN so that if the radio is turned off, it
does not display the uncomfortable error message?

Radio time out

Radio interface has been disabled

 

And that as a background task it automatically reconnects when the CAT port
is responding again without having to press the button:

 

Start Radio

 

I don't know if it only happens to me, but it's very annoying and I think
there would be an easy solution in Code in case it couldn't be configured.

 

Any idea?

[Dx4win] FW: setting split

2022-11-21 Thread David Perry, N4QS
Mark,

I can check and uncheck the Split box in the Radio Frequency control window
and my K3 will toggle between split and no split.  I am using the Elecraft
K3 X5 rig control file.  You also have to have both VFOs on the same band
before this will work.  You will get Split N/A when the two VFOs are not set
for the same band.

I hope this helps.

Hi David.  

Thanks for your answer, very detailed by the way.  

What I tried to do was create two .ini files, one for each QTH, and load the 
corresponding file for each QTH, and with the corresponding Grid and DME data, 
but it didn't work as I expected.  

I'll try to do what you say about groups, although I thought there would be an 
easier way to do it.  

David, all the best.

There is a way to do this, but it is somewhat complicated and requires
knowledge in how to use some of the advanced user features.  Here is a
summary as to how I do it:

1.  Create a group for each QTH.  Go to Filter tab, Selection.  It takes
some time to learn how to create and save the groups.  Check the help files
or possibly Jim's website AD1C to learn how.

2.  Import contacts from each QTH and select the correct group or change
existing QSOs via the Multiple QSO operation under the QSO tab.  This is
tricky but can be done.

3.  Once you have all QSOs assigned to the correct groups, you can now print
labels.  Here is how I do it:

a. Go to File, Preferences, Rep/Lab tab at the bottom.

b. Change the Greeting line to add your grid and Spanish DME for
group1.  Click on File, Save Changes to exit.
c. Go to filter, selection to select group1

d. Click on QSLs, Print QSL labels.  Be sure you select the correct
label.  I have created a custom label that includes the greeting line at the
bottom of the label.

e. Print your labels.

You can repeat the process for group 2.

Note that under filter, you can edit the group names.  For example, you can
name group 1 to the Home.  Group 2 something else.

You might also be able to create a custom label for each group and possibly
print the Grid and DME directly at the bottom of the label, but I have not
tried that.  You would have one custom label for group 1 and a different
custom label for group 2.  If you can figure out how to create custom labels
for each group, you would not have to change the greeting line manually for
each group (step 3b above).

I hope this helps.  These functions are actually fairly simple once you gain
some experience using them.

Buena suerte!

[Dx4win] FW: Mode Locked in RTTY

2022-08-10 Thread David Perry, N4QS

To build on what John and Mike are saying, I use a key stroke recording app 
called Macro Recorder to enter each QSO into DX4WIN immediately after it is 
logged in WSJT-X.  All I have to do is hit the Insert key.  Macro Recorder then 
executes a little routine that emulates all of the mouse movements and clicks 
to import the WSJT-X log into DX4WIN.  

This is a nice workaround until Paul implements UDP broadcast functionality 
within DX4WIN.  When Paul gets that done, QSOs will automatically get logged 
into DX4WIN like they do when using MMTTY on RTTY.

Paul, we really need this.  The whole world is going in this direction.  Please 
help your user base keep pace.

The one major drawback to Macro Recorder is that you have to pay for it.  It 
costs around $50.  There are some free keystroke mappers, but I could not get 
them to work.  

The ultimate and best solution is for Paul to implement UDP broadcast for his 
users.  We need it

There are many of us who use the same solution as Mike described - periodically 
(could be after every QSO!) import the WSJT-X file.One way to make that 
easier is to create a shortcut to the WSJT-X ADIF file on your desktop.   Once 
you navigate to the desktop the first time, the import window will open 
subsequently on your desktop.  Just click the shortcut and your FT8/FT4 etc 
QSOs are imported with the proper mode designator.

When you use any of the "sound card modes", the Elecraft radios have no way of

There are two ways to deal with this:

1. From the Menu Bar at top: Radio > Ignore Mode in real time.  This unlocks 
the RTTY designation, but you must now enter the mode manually for every QSO.

2. My solution is to just log any FT8 or MSK144 QSOs in WSJT-X and periodically 
import wsjtx_log.adi into dx4win: File > Import/Export >

I have used dx4win for over 12 years with different Icom radio without an issue.

Using the software with an Elecraft K4 however is a different issue.

It connects fine and reads frequency, however, I have one issue which I am 
unable

to overcome.




Using data modes FT4/FT8 it recognises the mode only as RTTY which is locked 
and unable I am to change until I log station, save, then reload. It will then 
enable me to change to any selectable mode.




Is there any workaround?

[Dx4win] FW: Can we add Q65? Other suggestions...

2022-08-02 Thread David Perry, N4QS
 

Paul,

 

Thanks for the help the other day.  I have three suggestions for
enhancements to DX4WIN on a new release:

 

1.  Remove IOTA as a checked default when sending spots (Alt-A)
2.  Implement UDP broadcast for QSOs between WSJT-X and DX4WIN (and

A friend, AB4IQ, and I both happened to work WL7T/P from a rare grid (EL58)
using Q65.  Ed uses Log4OM for 6 meters.  His confirmation via LOTW clearly
shows the mode as Q65 while mine does not.

Re: [Dx4win] VUCC totals not accurate

2022-07-30 Thread David Perry, N4QS
For anyone following this thread, Jim just helped me find the problem:

In Awards, VUCC tab, the Start date for Confirmation, LOTW was set for
01/01/2018!!!  I don't know how that happened.  I reset it to 01/01/1983 to
be in sync with the start date for QSL card, and that seems to have fixed
the problem.  Hi, hi

Subject: [Dx4win] VUCC totals not accurate

After all these years, I am just starting to focus on VUCC and FFMA awards
for six meters.  For VUCC, my confirmed totals in DX4WIN are about 70 less
that my totals showing on LOTW.  (I have very few grids confirmed via QSL
card.)  When I open the VUCC window, it is also apparent that confirmations
for CW and SSB are not showing as C.  Under Reports, Awards, VUCC tab, I
have all modes selected.  The same thing happens when I run a VUCC report
listing - confirmations for CW and SSB on 6 meters do not show up as
confirmed.

 

For example, for EM09 in Kansas, LOTW shows that grid was confirmed with
AB0S.  When I look up that QSO in DX4WIN, the Confirm LOTW box is set for Y
- so it is marked as confirmed in DX4WIN.  But in the VUCC window, EM09 only
shows a W in the CW and SSB boxes-there should be a C in the CW box.  If I
double click on the 6 at the top, all of my QSOs with EM09 on 6 meters are
shown, and AB0S clearly shows that it was confirmed via LOTW.

 

So why are these CW and SSB confirmations not showing up in the VUCC window
and on the VUCC reports?

In the confirmation box in the upper-left, make sure that LoTW is checked (in

Make sure you have the proper boxes checked under Confirmation, Mode group,
Valid modes, Valid bands, and Award bands.  Under Awards, only the Mode box

Re: [Dx4win] Omitting IOTA info in spots

2022-01-26 Thread n4qs
Alan,

I can think of several reasons that I routinely want to delete IOTA data
from the spot.  First, I often do it when I get the red highlighted warning
that the text of the spot is too long.  Second, I often want to send a
custom message in the text and need more space.  Third, I am often in a
hurry spotting a big run of G's, for example, but I don't see a big reason
to include the IOTA for EU005.  Same with most of the other common IOTAs.
But yes, you are right in that I may want to occasionally include the IOTA
for a rare station, but not very often.  When I do, I would like to check
the box, but 99% of the time the box should be unchecked.

That why I believe that Kostas and David are correct in wanting the default
setting for Control-A to be IOTA set for off.  Makes no sense to have the
default set to on.  I wish Paul would change this, or at least let this be a
user choice.  But merely setting the default to off would be the simplest
approach.

73,

Dave, N4QS

I usually have the headphones on when I'm adding QSOs.  What I think may
have happened is that I recently raised the Windows volume to listen to a
baseball game, and that made it just loud enough to hear the bells while
wearing headphones.

I don't know why DX4WIN would do this when adding a new QSO with the

Another way is to create a group using a date filter.  Go to Filter, Selection 
and then add a new group..  For example, you can have a group named 2006.  When 
you create a group for 2006, then you can run reports and see just your totals 
for that year.  After clicking Filter, Selection, hit F1 for a detailed help

Re: [Dx4win] WSJT-X integration with DX4WIN

2021-04-25 Thread David Perry, N4QS
Here is a new trick that some of us may already be using.

 

After suggesting to Paul that we needed full integration between WSJT-X and
DX4WIN (like is done with MMTTY) for two or three years with no results, I
decided to take matters into my own hands.  I primarily needed some way to
quickly execute the import routine whenever I want to import the adif log
file from WSJT-X into DX4WIN.  This is especially important during major
openings on 6 meters.  Just this past week I worked 56 South American
stations during a big two hour opening, and I was constantly going  through
the long routine of importing the WSJT-X log into DX4WIN by hand.  I have
done this hundreds if not thousands of times over the past three years.  I
often want to import a 6M FT8 QSO quickly into DX4WIN so that I can then
immediately send a spot using the Alt A routine.  I also want to confirm if
I worked the country and or station before and possible do a lookup via
QRZ.COM.

 

For the past few weeks, I have been playing with the idea of using some kind
of a keystroke or mouse click recorder to record the long series of clicks
that are required to import the WSJT-X log file into DX4WIN.  I tried two
free apps, AutoHotKey and AutoIt, with no success-they were too complicated
and I am not a programmer.  Yesterday, I stumbled upon an app called Macro
Recorder, and I spent the almost $50 to download and try the standard
edition.

 

Link to Macro Recorder website:  https://www.macrorecorder.com/

 

Within a few minutes, I successfully recorded a script, edited the script to
fine tune it and deployed it on my main logging computer.  Now, when I
complete a QSO in WSJT-X, instead of clicking on the OK button as it pops up
in the Log QSO window, I merely press one key - the Insert key.  This
immediately triggers a mouse click on the OK button to log the QSO in WSJT-X
and then immediately executes the complete series of mouse buttons required
to import the WSJT-X ADIF log file into DX4WIN.  Presto!  The new QSO logged
in WSJT-X is immediately imported and entered into DX4WIN.  Again, all I now
have to do is press the Insert key and the new QSO is logged into WSJT-X and
automatically imported into DX4WIN.  The whole process takes about one
second or two.  Progress.  The macro appears to work across my dual monitors
with no problem, but it does require that you keep all of your open windows
for WSJT-X and DX4WIN in the same position.  I never move mine.

 

I am not sure if the reflector will allow me to insert an image.  I have
made a copy of the script as it appears in Macro Recorder in case anyone is
interested.  If the image does not make it, just email directly and I will
send it to you.  I might add that when you minimize Macro Recorder, it
remains open as a hidden icon.  It is always there in the background waiting
for me to hit the Insert key.  You can assign the hotkey to be any key that
you prefer.  Someone else may be able to do the same thing with the free
apps like AutoHotKey or AutoIt (and there are many others), but I found
Macro Recorder to be much friendly and intuitive for a non-programmer like
me.  And someone may be able to improve and streamline my script.  I am new
to Macro Recorder and I may be missing a few tricks to make it perform even
better.

 

The ultimate and obviously more elegant solution would be for Paul to create
a seamless interface between WSJT-X and DX4WIN just like he did for MMTTY
many years ago.  As we all know, virtually all logging programs today
interface with WSjT-X.  DX4WIN is one of the few that doesn't.  In the
meantime, this new macro recorded script is very handy and will help me
tremendously during the coming 6 meter E season.  Again, if you cannot see
the image of the script below, please email me directly and I will sent it
to you.  Ironically, I would gladly pay $50 for Paul to release a new
version of DX4WIN with WSJT-X fully integrated.  This trick will at least
get me through the summer.

Re: [Dx4win] Importing different FT8 logs

2021-04-05 Thread David Perry, N4QS
Hi Radi,

1.  I can think of two ways to import into the correct group.  First, you can 
change the default Group number in DX4WIN.  Go to Preferences, QSO tab and then 
change the group number in the upper right corner.  I think this will work.  Be 
careful to change the default group number back to the correct number once you 
are finished with a given import.  Second, the best and probably safest way is 
to download the ADIF to DX4WIN converter, a small app written by Jim, AD1C.  
When converting an adif file into DX4WIN Version 9 format, you have the option 
with his little app to insert a group number as selected on the input screen of 
the app.  I use this feature all the time when importing QSOs from N1MM.

2.  I cannot think of a way to easily change QSOs from Group 2 that were 
imported into Group 1.  The only way that I can think of is to change the group 
number manually one QSO at a time.  Not fun.  The only other way is delete all 
QSOs for group 1 and recreate group 1 by importing the QSOs from other log 
source or sources if you have them--and designating the correct group number.  
I would do a backup before attempting to recreate a group.  Be extra careful.

I would highly recommend using Jim's ADIF to DX4WIN converter for assigning 
group numbers in the future.  As you may know, there are a lot of advantages to 
using the group functions within DX4WIN.  I keep the logs for all my 
DX-peditions within on master log -- separated by different group numbers.  I 
also store QSOs from two different KY locations by different group numbers.  By 
doing that, I can import LOTW confirmations for all of my callsigns with one 
file from the ARRL.  I can also see all the QSOs with a given station from all 
of my expeditions when viewing the Same Call window.  This is a very powerful 
and handy feature of DX4WIN.

Subject: [Dx4win] Importing different FT8 logs

Hi,
In my DX4WIN I have different Group numbers allocated for my Home and Portable 
operations. During these operations I open DX4WIN and enter the group number 
related to my current Home or Portable location, and only then I start logging 
my QSOs, and all is OK.
BUT: I have created different WSJTX instances with different FT8 logs, each one 
related to my different QRA locator. They are  stored in different folders, so 
when importing them, I'd like that each of them gets logged in DX4WIN under the 
related Group name used for this location.
When importing Home FT8 QSOs log, I selected Group 1 and the log contacts now 
appear in my Home Group1 window.Then, before importing the  FT8 log made on one 
of my portable locations, I have set DX4WIN window to Group 2. After importing 
FT8 log, I found it's QSO-s appear under Group 1 !???
1. Am I missing something during the import procedure? How to get them 
allocated to the Group2 during Import?
2. Once they were imported and appear in the Goup1, how to move them to a group 
2 ???
I have sent this question to the Reflector, but it was rejected because I 
enclosed some screen shots that number of bytes exceeded the number allowed by 
the Reflector.

The current version of WSJT-X is 2.3 and the  problem is fixed in that
version.

https://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx.html

There should be no need to export.  The wsjtx_log.adi file is written with
every logged QSO.

Tim,

I believe PstRotator will do what you need.  It will interface with DX4WIN
and it also has a feature that allows on rotator controller to be the slave
of another controller.  It's a great little app.

Click in the box displaying None and an arrow will appear.  Click on the

Subject: [Dx4win] QSO time issues when importing

To Paul and the group,

 

I continue to have problems with dupes being created when importing digital
QSOs from WSJT-X.  It appears that DX4WIN uses the QSO Begin time when all
other logging programs, including N1MM, use the QSO End time.  The Log4OM2
website states that in the UK amateur regulations require that the QSO end
time be used.

 

Here is how dupes are created:

 

After making over 600 Qs in the ARRL VHF test over the weekend, I imported
all 600 from N1MM into DX4WIN (using Jim's ADIF to DX4WIN Conversion app).
All 600 showed up in DX4WIN and I then did an upload to LOTW.  This morning
I made a few more FT8 QSOs and imported the WSJT-X ADIF file directly into
DX4WIN (which I have done hundreds of times).  Much to my dismay, a bunch of
dupes were created.  I made about 120 digital QSOs in the VHF contest.
During the contest, when a digital contact is made, WSJT-X broadcasts the
QSO to N1MM and then save the contact in its own ADIF file.  When the QSO is
imported into N1MM, it used the QSO End time for each QSO's time.

 

When I imported the WSJT-X ADIF file this morning, DX4WIN used the QSO Begin
time when saving each QSO.  By the way, I have always kept all of my
previous digital QSOs in WSJT-X.  I never delete them.  So the QSOs that I
made yesterday were imported into DX4WIN today, but most were ignored
because they all showed the same QSO time.  The QSO Begin and End times will
often be in sync when a digital mode is completed quickly without any
repeats.  But we all know that it can sometimes take several minutes for a
QSO to complete.  There have been times when I finally get a RR73 from the
other station that are 10 to 15 minutes after the original start time.  I
know that a  few times yesterday due to QSB or QRM conditions on 6 meters.

 

Two questions for the group:

 

1.  Would Paul be willing to change the import map for ADIF files so
that DX4WIN uses the QSO End time - which is the apparent standard?
2.  If Paul is not willing to do that, is there a way for the user to
change the import mapping - so that I can do that myself?

 

I might add that these dupes due to time differences become an ongoing issue
with LOTW.  Now that I uploaded all of the 600 QSOs that I imported from
N1MM (using the QSO end time), I will now have an issue with any QSOs that
get imported into DX4WIN directly from WSJT-X - if the beginning and end
time would vary significantly (more than a minute).  So this will cause
duplicate QSOs to be uploaded to LOTW - which I try to avoid.

 

The other option is the manually edit the WSJT-X ADIF file to make the
beginning and end times the same so that the next time that I import that
file, it will not create duplicates.  This also requires that I delete the
duplicates that were already created in DX4WIN due to the time discrepancy.

 

The best solution would be the change the import mapping in DX4WIN so that
it uses the QSO End time.  Can anyone help me with that?

 

In the meantime, I have to spend this afternoon finding all the dupes that
were created this morning!

 

Thank you.

Dave, N4QS

That's one of the great things about "standards" - all you have to do is assert 
that there's one.

 

LoTW only sees the TIME_ON and not the TIME_OFF. So, the time that the QSO 
started is what LoTW tracks, not when it ends.

[Dx4win] QSO time issues when importing

2020-06-15 Thread n4qs
To Paul and the group,

 

I continue to have problems with dupes being created when importing digital
QSOs from WSJT-X.  It appears that DX4WIN uses the QSO Begin time when all
other logging programs, including N1MM, use the QSO End time.  The Log4OM2
website states that in the UK amateur regulations require that the QSO end
time be used.

 

Here is how dupes are created:

 

After making over 600 Qs in the ARRL VHF test over the weekend, I imported
all 600 from N1MM into DX4WIN (using Jim's ADIF to DX4WIN Conversion app).
All 600 showed up in DX4WIN and I then did an upload to LOTW.  This morning
I made a few more FT8 QSOs and imported the WSJT-X ADIF file directly into
DX4WIN (which I have done hundreds of times).  Much to my dismay, a bunch of
dupes were created.  I made about 120 digital QSOs in the VHF contest.
During the contest, when a digital contact is made, WSJT-X broadcasts the
QSO to N1MM and then save the contact in its own ADIF file.  When the QSO is
imported into N1MM, it used the QSO End time for each QSO's time.

 

When I imported the WSJT-X ADIF file this morning, DX4WIN used the QSO Begin
time when saving each QSO.  By the way, I have always kept all of my
previous digital QSOs in WSJT-X.  I never delete them.  So the QSOs that I
made yesterday were imported into DX4WIN today, but most were ignored
because they all showed the same QSO time.  The QSO Begin and End times will
often be in sync when a digital mode is completed quickly without any
repeats.  But we all know that it can sometimes take several minutes for a
QSO to complete.  There have been times when I finally get a RR73 from the
other station that are 10 to 15 minutes after the original start time.  I
know that a  few times yesterday due to QSB or QRM conditions on 6 meters.

 

Two questions for the group:

 

1.  Would Paul be willing to change the import map for ADIF files so
that DX4WIN uses the QSO End time - which is the apparent standard?
2.  If Paul is not willing to do that, is there a way for the user to
change the import mapping - so that I can do that myself?

 

I might add that these dupes due to time differences become an ongoing issue
with LOTW.  Now that I uploaded all of the 600 QSOs that I imported from
N1MM (using the QSO end time), I will now have an issue with any QSOs that
get imported into DX4WIN directly from WSJT-X - if the beginning and end
time would vary significantly (more than a minute).  So this will cause
duplicate QSOs to be uploaded to LOTW - which I try to avoid.

 

The other option is the manually edit the WSJT-X ADIF file to make the
beginning and end times the same so that the next time that I import that
file, it will not create duplicates.  This also requires that I delete the
duplicates that were already created in DX4WIN due to the time discrepancy.

 

The best solution would be the change the import mapping in DX4WIN so that
it uses the QSO End time.  Can anyone help me with that?

 

In the meantime, I have to spend this afternoon finding all the dupes that
were created this morning!

 

Thank you.

 

73,

 

Dave, N4QS

Re: [Dx4win] VHF contest log

2020-06-15 Thread n4qs
Bob,

Assuming you are using Version 9 of DX4WIN, the digital modes will be
imported correctly.  FT4 QSOs show up as MFSK for the mode and FT4 as the
submode.  FT8 QSOs show up as FT8 for the mode and no submode.

I made a few QSOs during the weekend in the ARRL VHF contest.
Some on CW / FT8 and FT4.
My question; if I upload my adif file from N1MM directly into dx4win as I
normally do will the FT8 / FT4 QSOs be logged correctly in dx4win ?
I am sure this has been covered but I can't seem to locate it.
Thanks for the help.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN Digest, Vol 193, Issue 1

2020-05-07 Thread n4qs
Hi Bill,

Yes, I often find differences in the grid square.  I typically use the grid as 
reported by the Lotw download, since I assume that the other op chose the 
correct Station Location when he uploaded to Lotw.  There can also be 
differences in states and zones.  I believe some logging programs give you the 
option to automatically update your log data to correspond to what was reported 
via Lotw.  While every solution has pros and cons, an automatic log sync with 
Lotw data would be a nice option for those of us who make a lot of contacts.  
Given that TQSL has recently added more checking of correct Station Locations, 
it should make the Lotw data even more accurate.  Thus, I would use an auto 
sync function with Lotw if available in DX4WIN.  I make too many contacts to go 
in and look them up manually all the time.  The other option is to just ignore 
the differences.

Hi Folks,
I wonder if the lotwreport.notfound works.  Due to potential sync issues, I 
just downloaded my entire LotW confirmed data base. I then imported it and got 
a few hundred contacts in the not found file marked with X or C.  However, I 
have now checked about 100 of these and they are all in the log. Also, when I 
check with DX4Win tool I see no red lined fields from these QSO's.Anyone 
else have any issues with this feature or am I using it all wrong?

Thanks Bill-K5ZQ

And if Paul (developer) were to implement these things you ask for, would you 
be willing to pay for it?  The man and his family have to eat too.
Or how about this, would you be willing to pay an annual fee for upgrades to 
DX4WIN ?  Other loggers with robust features demand this.
I too am a very long time user of DX4WIN.  I don't recall the year I started 
using it but it seems like the early 90s.  As I recall, Paul said long ago that 
he was freezing any further development of DX4WIN.  That lasted for a long 
time.  When we went from vers 8 to vers 9, I considered that a gift.  I can't 
even recall if we paid to get the new version, if we did it was something like 
$35.  For someone to whine and complain that they want their money's worth, I 
mean come on.  I'm sure you'd throw $35 over the bar in one evening or spend 
that for a mediocre lunch.  The other thing to consider is that perhaps Paul 
does not have time to devote to DX4WIN.
Maybe, he has just lost interest.

Here's a thought, write to Paul direct in stead of the user group.  We're not 
the ones that will be doing any develop of DX4WIN.

Re: [Dx4win] Very Satisfied with DX4WIN

2020-04-16 Thread n4qs
There is no reason why we all have to be resigned to the fact that DX4WIN
must be frozen in time and there will never be any more enhancements.  Paul,
after a seven year hiatus, recently added FT4 and FT8 as new modes and
provided support for QRZ.COM XML integration, along with some other nice
features like automatic updates.

For those of us you are weak signal DX enthusiasts, we would like to see UDP
Broadcast support so that we can automatically import digital contacts from
WSJT-X.  This is a major feature that is now supported by almost all other
logging programs.  DX4WIN has for years provided a very nice, seamless
integration between MMTTY and DX4WIN.  Providing the same for WSJT-X is all
that we are asking.  It is a major feature that is vitally needed,
especially as the summer E season approaches on 6 meters.

Last summer there were several openings on 6m from the Midwest in NA into
Europe where my entire screen in WSJT-X was lit up in red.  I needed to know
in real time which stations were new countries for me on 6M (any mode), but
I had to hand type each call into the QSO window of DX4WIN.  This was very
hectic and awkward when so many were calling at once.  I basically had to
ignore DX4WIN and work the pile up in WSJT-X.  After the dust settled, I
then imported the ADI file from WSJT-X into DX4WIN to find out if I had
worked any new ones.

I have recently tested another logging program that handles this integration
between WSJT-X and the logger very nicely.  The two programs talk to each
other exchanging data via UDP broadcast.  A window from the general logger
displays the calls from WSJT-X and tells you which ones are new for DXCC.
If you click on a call in WSJT-X to begin calling that station, the callsign
is immediately put into the Callsign field of the general logger.  A QRZ.COM
XML lookup takes place from the logger and the station's info is displayed
so that you can again confirm callsign, locations, grid, etc.--all while the
contact in WSJT-X is taking place.  Then when the contact is over and added
to the log in WSJT-X, it is also immediately added in the logging program.
You can immediately send a spot if desired.  All of this happens very fast
and seamlessly between the two programs -- very similar to how MMTTY is
currently integrated into DX4WIN.

Some may ask why I just don't go with the other logging program if I like it
so much.  I actually prefer many other features within DX4WIN mainly because
it can easily accommodate my 187,000+ contacts without getting too slow and
because it also provides group support for my DX-pedition calls.  And yes,
the country and awards databases maintained by Jim, AD1C, are the best.
Thank you Jim.  But the one glaring weakness in DX4WIN, based on the current
standard among virtually all actively supported logging programs, is the
lack of UDP broadcast support for communicating with other programs like
WSJT-X and FlDigi.

I might add that the other popular loggers also offer the option to
automatically upload to many services such as Lotw, Clublog, QRZ.com and
others.  This summer, as 6 meters heats up, it would be nice to have the
option to turn on automatic updates to Clublog so that each contact is
immediately uploaded to Clublog.  That way DX stations on the other end can
use the link on my QRZ.com page to see if they made it into may log.  I have
used this feature in Belize and Grand Cayman using N1MM+ and it worked very
well.

All the other loggers provide the option to turn UDP broadcast support on or
off and the same goes for automatic updates to Lotw or Clublog.  So, for
those users of DX4WIN who do not have any interest in these features, Paul
should allow them to simply not turn them on.  In short, UDP broadcast
support is a current standard within the hobby that needs to be incorporated
into DX4WIN.  I hope that we can use this forum to continue to discuss new
enhancements as our fascinating hobby continues to evolve.

It seems now almost mandatory that every few years we get a few people
theatrically "leaving DX4Win" after not getting "upgrades". When pressed on
what those upgrades should be, the answer is either silence or a vague hand

Paul,

Try LogHX3.  It can be setup to look and operate like DX4WIN, but has all
the additional features that we have been asking for.  In just one week, I
have it up and running with 167,000 QSOs imported from DX4WIN.  Alexei,
RX4HX, appears to be very actively supporting it with frequent updates.  I
will continue to use DX4WIN for storing past dxpeditions, and I have been a
long supporter of DX4WIN.  But I will likely move to LogHx for everyday
logging from my main station.  I love the way it integrates with WSJT-X,
MMTTY, FLDigi and other programs.  It fully supports UDP broadcasts.  It
will automatically upload QSOs to Clublog, QRZ.COM and other websites.
These are all features that I need to have especially as I get ready for the
summer Es season on 6 meters.

Can we caress the hope of having next release to allow dX4Win to
interoperate with WSJT/JTDX for direct logging, automatic upload to ClubLog,
automatic/easy procedure to upload/download to/from LoTW.
LoTW/ aand Clublog operation has an application that works well with other

Re: [Dx4win] Ideas for development

2019-11-27 Thread n4qs
This is my last post and I will move on.  Yes, I know about the "Imported QSO 
is ignored" feature when importing and I use it all the time.  But even when 
you select that (it's the default), you can still have situations in which 
duplicates are imported.

The point is there are all sorts of ways to get duplicates into the log and you 
have no way to identify them.  I was just trying to agree with Paul that it 
would be a nice feature to have a function or utility within DX4WIN that would 
help us identify potential dupes.

I'm trying to understand the issue. Let's say I work you at some point on 20M 
CW, then I work you again in a contest again on 20M CW. I import the ADIF file, 
are you saying that you should get a warning that I've worked you before? I 
don't understand why that would be a problem. Like many of us, this happens all 
the time.

If you're talking about preventing a truly duplicate QSO from being imported 
(same band, mode, and time), that's what the "Imported QSO is ignored" setting 
is for on the Options for duplicate QSOs dialog when importing. 

I use this all the time because for FT-8, I just feed it my whole log every 
time I import and it ignores the duplicate.

Re: [Dx4win] Ideas for development

2019-11-27 Thread n4qs
Paul,

I agree and dupes can appear in the log for many reasons.  Here are a couple:

1.  When an FT8 QSO does not complete the first time, you often need to send 
the 73 message a second or third time and this can cause the QSO to be logged 
two or three times if you are not paying attention.  Currently, I try to use 
ADIF Master to go into the wsjt-x log to find and delete the dupes.  But I 
sometimes miss a dupe and it ends up in DX4WIN and often gets uploaded to LOTW 
as well.

2.  For those of us who attempt to use other logging programs that interface 
directly with WSJT-X such as Log4om and DXLabs.  If I have already imported FT8 
QSOs using the wsjt-x log and then attempt to do so from the other logging 
program at a later date, dupes are often created due to the QSO time 
differences between wsjt-x and the other logging program.  I know that you can 
set the Time window to match QSO in secs (other logs) when importing (See 
preferences, import tab), but this can still get tricky if the other log 
program tracks both beginning and ending time for the QSO.  

It would be nice if we could run a utility in DX4WIN to identify and eliminate 
dupes.  With 170,000 QSOs in my log, it is difficult to track them down on my 
own.  You idea is a good one.

I also like suggestions #2 and #3.  Great ideas that would be used extensively 
by me if available.

Dave, N4QS

Re: [Dx4win] Entering Swl Qsl’s

2019-11-04 Thread n4qs
I just sent out five or six SWL cards using DX4WIN.  Maybe you have to enter 
the station call sign and bring it up in the QSO window before Control+F2 will 
work.  Did you do that?  I am just guessing.  I can't remember for sure.

Is anyone else having problems entering SWL QSL cards into DX4Win?  I do a 
Control+F2 but don’t get the pop-window anymore.  Am I forgetting something?

Recently, when I post a spot using 'Announce DX' for an island, the spot
includes the IOTA number by default. I do not want to include this text in

I need to uncheck the 'IOTA / Island' box on the pop-up to remove that text

I have been unable to find a way to globally disable this behavior. Is it
possible?

Re: [Dx4win] 51st state

2019-10-26 Thread n4qs
This has happened to me several times.  You have made a contact with a
station in DC.  As I recall, you can fix this by doing a search (F8),
putting DC in the state field, and then hitting enter.  That should bring up
any stations that sent DC during a contest.  Click on each QSO and clear the
state field since DC is not a state.  Hit enter to save the change.  That
should get you back to 50 states.  This normally happens when importing a
contest file into DX4WIN.

Re: [Dx4win] Fwd: WSJT to DX4WIN

2019-10-15 Thread N4QS, Dave Perry
Hi Ray,

 

Glad to hear that the first import worked for you.  In the future when you add 
more QSOs in WSJT-X, you just import the entire logfile the same way into 
DX4WIN.  As mentioned below, the default selection when handling dupes is that 
any duplicated QSOs from prior imports will be ignored.  So you can keep 
importing the entire log file, and DX4WIN will ignore the prior QSOs and only 
add the new QSOs.  You do not have to apply a date filter.  Keep importing the 
entire logfile from WSJT-X.  Just make sure when you get to the window that 
asks how to handle dupes, you just accept the default which is “the prior 
duplicate QSO will be ignored.”  This is a very slick feature.

 

But we still need the UDP broadcast support so that each new QSO is 
automatically imported into DX4WIN.  Then we will not have to repeat this 
manual import process over and over….

 

73,

 

Dave, N4QS

Hello dave, just to tell you that I thank you very much for your advice on 
WSJTX and tell you that I already managed to do it, although there were only 
225 QSOs, now I need to know how you separate in the WSJTX log what you already 
passed to DX4WIN with the new thing you have to update.  Is the .ADI FILE 
deleted from the WSJTX?  Or is there a better way to do it.

Re: [Dx4win] Fwd: WSJT to DX4WIN

2019-10-15 Thread n4qs
Hi Shelby,

 

I am sorry to hear about your brother-in-law.  Yes, I have literally imported 
thousands of times from WSJT-X into DX4WIN from two different computers.  I 
know the drill, but it still is not easy to explain to a newbie.  More 
importantly, we need UDP Broadcast so that QSOs are imported immediately.  As I 
keep mentioning, when you are being called by twenty EU stations during an 
opening on 6M, you really do not have time to stop and import.  But there are 
reasons I want to see the QSO in DX4WIN—to see if the QSO is a new country, 
send a Spot, verify a callsign using the QRZ.COM XML interface, etc.  FT4 is 
even faster and all the more reason for real-time updates to DX4WIN.  As you 
can tell, I would very much like Paul to respond to this request.  These new 
digital modes are fast and would match nicely with the built in speed of DX4WIN 
– but we need UDP broadcast support to make that happen.

Dave, I don't find the WSJT-X log file difficult at all, to locate? I simply 
click on file, then open log directory, then wsjt-s log. I manually import all 
FTx contacts this way, as I don't have DX4WIN on my contest computer, personal 
choice. Every contact is manually imported from contest computer to computer 
with DX4WIN. Probably more time consuming, but I'm retired.

Hi Irwin,

 

I have also used JTAlert, and you have the same problem.  As long as DX4WIN 
cannot receive UDP broadcasts of QSO information, no program would be able to 
automatically upload QSOs to it.  It is a limitation of DX4WIN, not the other 
logging apps.

Possibly this can be done in JTAlert. This program will transfer FT8 QSO's to

[Dx4win] Feature request -- UDP support

2019-09-18 Thread n4qs
I would like to request that Paul add UDP broadcast and import support
within DX4WIN so that we can interface WSJT-X to DX4WIN like it now can be
done with N1MM+.  I operated the ARRL VHF contest this weekend and had N1MM
and WSJT-X working together.  Every time I made a FT8 contact in WSJT-X, the
contact was automatically added in N1MM.  This allowed me to keep track of
dupes and scoring in real time.  Everything worked very seamlessly.  Both
programs actually exchanged information back and forth via the UDP
broadcasts.

 

We need the same capability in DX4WIN.  I have made over 7,500 FT8 and FT4
contacts over the past two summers.  Both modes are becoming increasingly
critical for weak signal DXing on 160 meters and 6 meters especially.
Although I have added to my DXCC band totals using FT8 on several of the
other bands as well.  It is not very handy to have to manually import the
adi logfile from WSJT-X into DX4WIN.  There are times in the heat of the
moment that you need the contacts added to DX4WIN but you do not have time
to stop and do the import.  This happened to me this summer in the middle of
a major opening into EU on 6 meters when I had a screen full of G stations
calling me.  Adding the WSJT-X contacts automatically and in real time helps
be to verify call signs, ensure the QSOs are valid and quickly report spots
on the cluster.  It also helps me to see when I have worked a new country
and to look up more info about a station via the QRZ.COM XML interface.

 

Paul, is there any reason that you do not think it is a good idea to support
the importing of QSOs via UDP broadcasts?  I wonder what other users think.
Any comments?

 

So many other programs support UDP, I am wondering if there is some
technical reason that DX4WIN cannot support it?

[Dx4win] FW: DX4WIN World Map

2019-09-11 Thread n4qs


Yes, I like the map too!  And I was able to find PEI on the map.  I first
did an F8 search, clicked on the IOTA field, did an F1 search, found Prince
Edward Island, and selected it.  My logbook then displayed all my contacts
with PEI.  When I doubled clicked on one of them, PEI was highlighted in
yellow on the map.  You may need to zoom in to see it.

@Ron,
Even so, it's the BEST ham radio map I have ever used, all the other logging
program maps are Mercator projections which are kind of mind bending if
you're trying to figure a beam direction quickly by sight...

Ron, I just didn't want Paul to think we didn't LOVE his great circle
bearing map, even if he doesn't update it.  LOL

Subject: [Dx4win] DX4WIN World Map

Hello all DX4WIN users.

I have recently updated to the latest version of DX4WIN, being version
9.0.4.1176.

Very recently I came to the realization that the world map in DX4WIN, in my
view, is seriously deficient.

For that matter, I don't think it has ever been updated, well not since the
early versions of DX4WIN, like the Version 5 I first owned and used.

I like it's functionality, with all it's features and projection options and
it is easy to use. I have it on my LCD screen always and visitors to my
radio room are certainly impressed with this visual aid.

But, after all these years, it seems it has never been updated, that is, it
does not even show the Canadian districts. I could not even locate Prince
Edward Island.

Am I incorrect in saying this is a USA DX Logging program, as it only shows
USA states in detail and does not show much in the way of any other country
details, not even for your very dear, nearest country neighbor, being
Canada, or have I missed something, like a World Map update, since using
this program for 20 years or more.

There is much more of the world and DX logging than just USA states.

I hope there is an updated map somewhere and that someone can advise me of
how to solve this problem, such as maybe to delete this DX4WIN word map
screen and find a better map or a even regrettably a better logging program.

Regards, from Ron. vk3io.

Thanks Dave. Yes, I am sure I am using the correct log. I wonder if my
installation was corrupted for some reason. The search just doesn't work on
anything - callsign, mode, QSL flag, etc. I've re-started the program
several times, and I re-booted the PC with no luck.

Does anyone know a way to either: re-install version 9.0.5, or re-install
version 9.0.4?
The DX4WIN site only has 9.0.3.

Re: [Dx4win] Version 9.05 available

2019-06-17 Thread n4qs
Dick,

 

There are a couple ways that I adjust the frequency range to keep the red arrow 
visible.  First, you can click on the checkmark on the bottom.  That re-centers 
the bandmap and makes the whole band visible.  You can also hit the plus or 
minus signs at the bottom until you see the red arrow again.  But if you tune 
the radio off the top or bottom of the scale, my version will automatically 
move the scale up or down to follow the red arrow.

Aha. That’s exactly what mine does. However I have a pretty large window open

Hi Dave,

 

Yes it is checked for follow Radio,

 

The red arrow moves, but disappears from the map, as the map is not moving 
anywhere. I have to use the slider to see the red arrow again. Been that wat 
since version 8. 

I did ask questions then, but never got an answer, or any help.

I have been a DX4WIN user from the start, but this is the only thing that never 
worked for me.

Do you have Follow Radio checked at the bottom of the DX4WIN bandmap?  You may 
have to open the bandmap window all the way from top to bottom so that you can 
see the bottom section.  When you do that, it should follow your K3.  The red 
arrow moves up and down as you tune and it automatically updates with new spot

A couple of things to check:

1.  In DX4WIN, preferences, packet2, make sure you have typed localhost:7300
and checked the enable button.
2.   In VE7CC, Configuration, Ports/Logging Programs, in the middle section,
make sure that you have checked the enable button for local host and that
you have selected Use Port 7300.

You might have to restart both programs.

Am I missing a setting in DX4WIN or VE7CC?

Use the short cut keys.  When you have a call in the callsign box in the QSO

correct heading.  For long path, just press Control F11.

Re: [Dx4win] WAS Oddity

2018-12-28 Thread n4qs
John,

This has happened to me before.  As I recall, you should try doing a search
of your log for "DC" in the state field.  In some contests, those living in
DC can send that as their exchange, and that gets imported into the state
field incorrectly.  73, Dave, N4QS

Subject: [Dx4win] WAS Oddity

I was looking at my WAS stats for 2018 and the report indicated I had worked
FIFTY ONE states. Thinking that was rather impossible I did a bit of
research and found that an invalid entry had resulted in mystery state #51.
When looking at the WAS report, at the very bottom is the mystery state with
a state name of the letter "C" and the St column has "|l" as the state. It
indicates that it has been confirmed for MIX, PHO & DIG on 160, 80 and 30
but clicking on that "confirmation" results in "no matching QSO found"
response and the entry box is empty except the state "SL" with a red "S". No
matter how I sort the data I can't find this one. Can anybody suggest a way
to repair what apparently is a corrupt database for this single entry?

Re: [Dx4win] Help With Importing WSJT .adi

2018-11-08 Thread n4qs
I run WSJT-X on two different computers within my station.  Both PCs are
networked.  To make it easy to find the log files, I have mapped network
drives to each wsjt-x folder on the separate computers.  When I go to import
either one of the files from within DX4WIN, I go to File, Import, ADIF, and
then select This PC.  Under Network locations, both WSJT-X folders (on two
different PCs) are displayed.  Clicking on one or the other displays the
wsjt-x_log.adi file that I need for importing into DX4WIN.  This approach
makes it very easy to find the right file on either computer.  It would also
work with only one computer.  Just map a drive to the file location that Jim
described below.  Importing from WSJT-X becomes a snap!

It sounds like you are importing the wrong file.  The ADIF log file that
WSJT-X creates can be found here:

%localappdata%\WSJT-X\wsjtx_log.adi

This is the file you need to import into DX4WIN.

Re: [Dx4win] Import of ADIF "Comment" field - answered

2018-07-02 Thread N4QS, Dave Perry
Paul,
This used to bother me.  I solved the problem by unchecking the "db reports
to comments" box under the Reporting tab in Settings within WSJT-X.  By
doing that, nothing is saved to the comments field in the ADIF file and thus
nothing gets imported into the Call Sign Notes field in DX4WIN.

Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Import of ADIF "Comment" field - answered

Len (K1NU) noted that when a WSJT log is imported into DX4WIN, DX4WIN puts
the contents of the  field of the WSJT log into the DX4WIN
"Callsign Notes" field. 

What is in the WSJT  field is usually the mode and signal reports
such as "FT8  Sent: +01  Rcvd: +00". This is clearly QSO-related and not
Callsign-related information.  

When I look at an ADIF specification, it says the  field is a
Comment field for the QSO (not for the Callsign).

I do not know why WSJT decided to put the mode and signal reports in the
 field because other fields already contain the mode and signal
reports. DX4win imports these mode and signal report fields into the proper
parts of the DX4WIN log.

The problem with importing the  field into the DX4WIN Callsign
Notes is when you work a station multiple times. With each repeat QSO,
QSO-related info is appended to what is already in Callsign Notes. With many
QSOs, Callsign Notes gets pretty mucked-up with info that does not belong
there.

I would like to see DX4WIN make a change so that WSJT  field is
put into DX4WIN Callsign Notes.

Yes, I had the same problem a few weeks ago.  As I recall, I had imported a

That only took about five hours to figure out!  Despite battery backup, a long

Re: [Dx4win] 51 States -- Back to 50

2018-03-28 Thread n4qs
Kostas,

Thanks for the tip.  Based on your suggestion, I merely did a search of my 
entire log and put DC in as the state.  Four QSOs came up with DC as the state. 
 I merely deleted DC and saved each QSO.  Now the summary report shows 50 
states again.  There is still one bug:  The WAS listing report still shows a 
row under WY with weird letters and symbols in the St field.  But there are no 
longer any Cs in any of the band/mode boxes.  At lease my totals are back to 
normal.  

I would hope that Paul can prevent this from happening in the future and also 
figure out a way to defrag the WAS list so that the bogus row at the bottom 
goes away.

Thanks to all who responded.

I remember that it happens when you import a log which has a DC as a state. 
There is nothing we can do to correct it, except you find a previous version of 
your log which has not this problem, remove the DC from the imported log and 
import this again. Only Paul can help you.

[Dx4win] 51 States

2018-03-28 Thread n4qs
My log with over 138,000 Qs is now showing 51 states when I run the WAS
summary or listing reports.  The listing report shows a line after WY at the
very bottom of the report.  There are a bunch of weird characters in the St
field and the State name field on this last row.  Then there are Cs in the
boxes for Mix, Pho, CW, Dig, 80 and 40.  When I try to click on one of the
Cs, there is an error message that says "No Matching QSO Found".  Once I
click OK to remove the error message, I get a blank QSO window except for
the State field which is filled in with the letters SL.  The S is red and
the L is black.  If I try to hit F2 and do a search for SL in the State
field, I get nothing.

 

It is apparent that there is a corrupted QSO in the database, but the
question is how do I find it and delete it?  Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

73,

 

Dave, N4QS

Re: [Dx4win] Printing Labels in Sequence?

2018-03-03 Thread N4QS, Dave Perry
Eric,

Click F8, type in station call sign, hit enter
All QSOs with that station will be displayed in logbook window
Click QSLs tab, Set QSL Label flag, follow prompts
Click Print QSL labels under same QSLs tab
Select the custom label that you would like to use
Uncheck most Print options (Group Names, Method Labels, etc.)  I only use
Print Via Manager
Click on Edit and review format
Multiple QSOs should be showing in the preview
You can uncheck Commercial to free up more space for QSOs
Go back to main Print QSL labels pop up window
Click on Print, follow prompts
Labels should print

I can normally get up to 4 QSOs to print on one label.

Hope this helps.

Trying to work 3D2ER on 160M while I type this!

I have multiple QSOs with a single station, and would like to print labels,

How do I do that?

Re: [Dx4win] Not saving updates from QRZ

2018-02-24 Thread n4qs
Jim and John,

I just replicated the problem here as well.  I am a QRZ subscriber, so
normally when making a QSO I hit Update QSO in the Callsign/Mgr lookup.  But
I have found it does not update with new data unless the field in the
logging window is blank.  For example, if I have already worked the station
and from a previous contact have a four digit grid entered, the update will
not change that entry -- even though QRZ is showing the entire six digit
grid.  I have to delete the prior value and then click on Update QSO.  The
new six digit value is then entered into the empty grid field.  Same goes
for name, city, county -- any of the other fields.

So when it comes to county, I just found a prior QSO that did not have a
county filled in.  I attempted to Update QSO from the Callsign/Mgr lookup
window.  The county shows up in the log entry window and then I save.  But
when I reopen that QSO, the new county info is not there.  Like Jim said, I
have to do it two or three times.  I noticed that the original blank county
field had two dashes (--).  My theory is that the program sees those two
dashes and assumes that the county field has data in it, and then does not
update the new data.  You have to click in that field to get it to delete
the -- and then it appears that the new data will fill and then be saved.
Not exactly sure about this behavior, but it appears to be consistent with
how the other fields get updated.

Re: [Dx4win] Logging FT8 qsos in V9

2018-02-24 Thread n4qs
Ed,

Here are my answers to your questions:

1.  You can enter by hand.  Version 9 supports db signal reports.  Just
enter -01 for example instead of 599.

2.  Yes, you should log FT8 QSOs using the db format for signal reports.
That is the accepted norm.  Even LOTW supports that format.

3.  Yes, I just import the wsjt-x log file directly into DX4WIN-- just like
N1MM+.  DX4WIN will add the db formatted signal reports (if you are using
Version 9).  No, I never clear the log file in WSJT-X.  When you import the
log into DX4WIN the default option is to ignore all duplicates.  So any
previous contacts are ignored by DX4WIN and only any new ones are added on
each successive import.

4.  DX4WIN does not currently interface with JTAlert.  I wish it did!
Alternatively, WSJT-X supports UDP broadcast of logged contacts.  Some other
logging programs use this feature to automatically pull in new contacts from
WSJT-X.  I wish DX4WIN would do that.

5.  Not sure about Jim's script and XP.  You will have to ask him.

I hope this helps.

Dave, N4QS

Subject: [Dx4win] Logging FT8 qsos in V9

ok, newbie to FT8.  Made my first FT8 Qso last night, I think (lol)

WSJT has the CAT control of my FTdx5000, so when I bring up DX4win, I get
the com error, and just close it a move on, so that DX4Win comes up and runs
normally without CAT radio control.
Not sure if this ok or not, but seems no harm no foul.

My PC is running XP,  DX4Win v9, and WSJT.

A few questions:

1), I just did an 'off line' QSO addition to the log file in DX4Win.  Is
that how it is done, manually every time?  Since you can't 'grab' the WSJT
QSO information with a click to import into DX4Win.

2). I just logged this qso as FT8, with 599s each way.
Did not log the db received information that WSJT provided, I assume that
599 is not the way to report the FT8 levels.

3.)  Do you just log all FT8 QSOs in WSJT, and then Export / Import the WSJT
adi file into DX4Win? (just like you would do for N1MM+ etc)
a.)  If yes what does the RST send and received look like in DX4Win for this
import? Is there a SCREEN shot I could reference somewhere to visually look
at?

b.)  Is yes, after the import into DX4Win, do you go back into WSJT and
clear the .adi log, so that next export / import you don't get a duplicate
message in DX4Win?

4.) I have been reading about JTalert, this program seems to have the
ability to provide a logging 'channel' between WSJT and some other logging
programs. Does or will DX4Win have this capability?  Is so is there
documentation available for setup?

5.) Lastly I did see Jim's W10 script for moving qso automatically from WSJT
into DXWin, would that work on XP platform?

Thanks in advance for responses, please do a REPLY ALL, so everyone can read
your responses to my Qs above.

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

2018-02-20 Thread 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.

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

2018-02-20 Thread 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

Subject: [Dx4win] 3Y0Z

I tried to pre-emptively add 3Y0Z (Bouvet) before the expedition actually
begins so I can see spots as soon as they start appearing - or should I say
so I can be alerted when an ATNO is spotted. Right now 3Y0Z is coming up
Antarctica. 

 

I tried to add the callsign to Bouvet but when I select File, Database,
Countries, I get a screen saying "Country editor not available".

 

So, will AD1C be publishing a new country file that includes 3Y0Z with a
start date of "around" January 23, 2018, the earliest estimated date of
arrival on the island? 

 

Good luck everyone! See you in the pileups. 

 

73, Tom

Subject: [Dx4win] Problem Accessing QRZ.COM

Gentlemen,

I recently upgraded to DX4WIN 9.03.1160.  I am using Windows 10 and
operating with an Elecraft KX-3.  While operating I can automatically QSY to
DX Cluster spots, EAC.  Prior to upgrading, DX4WinI could also hit F3 and
get the Web page of the station I am working.  Not now, however.

I have gone to preferences, Ext. Date and entered http://www.qrz.com/db/
under the website callsign lookup.  No other information is entered on any
other window. I wonder what I am doing wrong.  Anyone out there that can set
me straight??

Your help will be appreciated.

Scott

Re: [Dx4win] How to change mapping for FT8

2017-12-19 Thread n4qs
Hi Mike,

Problem solved

Yes, I am importing the adif file from WSJT-X directly into DX4WIN using the
ADIF import filter.  Works great.  Mode is correct.  Signal reports now are
correct.  The only problem is the Comments field from WSJT-X goes into the
Notes for this Call field.  For example, after an import I will typically
see the following in the Notes for this Call field:

FT8  Sent: -08  Rcvd: -02

But I just solved the problem by simply unchecking the "db reports to
comments" option under the reporting tab of settings in WSJT-X.  This used
to be an important way to store mode and signal report data when the prior
versions of DX4WIN did not accept FT8 as a mode.  But now there is no need
to retain this info since it is being imported properly into DX4WIN.  By
turning that option off, nothing goes in the Comments field in WSJT-X and
thus nothing gets imported into the Notes for this Call field in DX4WIN.
Simple workaround.  Sorry for the wasted bandwidth.  Hi, hi

Now back to working DX...

Dave, N4QS

Subject: RE: [Dx4win] How to change mapping for FT8

Hello Dave,

In that case, you should not need to edit anything.  Make sure FT8 is
enabled as a mode:
File > Preferences > Station > Modes
Make sure you have FT8 selected as a valid mode for any awards you chase:
File > Awards > Valid Modes

In WSJT-X, do NOT check Convert Mode to RTTY or dB Report to Comments in
File > Settings > Reporting.

Now, you should (should being the operative word here!) be able to import
your WSJT-X file directly, have the mode appear correctly, and have the
signal reports appear in the proper fields.  If you are not logging the QSOs
directly in DX4WIN, and simply importing the WSJT-X adif file, it should
(there's that should word, again) not matter what radio you are using, or
whether your radio uses SSB or Data mode to work the digi modes.

Hi Wes,

I would like to avoid having to edit the ADIF file.  I would like DX4WIN to
be able to map the Remarks field to the Notes for this QSO field without any
manual manipulation of the ADIF file.  It would make importing of WSJT-X
files a snap.  I thought DX4WIN has a way to remap imports.
