It sounds like you're looking at the Capture window, which is optimized for logging QSOs in real-time.
To log old QSOs 1. Open the Config window's General tab, and uncheck the Option panel's "Optimize for realtime QSO entry" box 2. use the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab to record the QSO A. click the New button to create a new QSO B. type in the callsign, frequency or band, mode, date and time, etc. C. click New to save that QSO and create a new QSO D. go to B When you're done entering a batch of QSOs, click Log instead of New in step C. With the "Optimize for realtime QSO entry" unchecked, clicking the New button -- populates the new QSO's "begin date-and-time" to the "end date-and-time" of the previous manually-entered QSO incremented by 1 second -- populates the new QSO's frequency, band, and mode with those of the previous manually-entered QSO There are shortcut keys for rapidly moving between a QSO's items without lifting your hands from the keyboard: http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxkeeper/Help/KeyboardShortcuts.htm#Main%20window% 20shortcuts You can also quickly accomplish things by double-clicking, as described in http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxkeeper/Help/Doubleclick.htm For example, double-clicking an RST field sets its value to 59 or 599 as function of the mode. For more details, see the "Logging a QSO using the Main window's Log QSOs tab" section of http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxkeeper/Help/Log.htm (or click one of DXKeeper's Help buttons and navigate to these topics via the online help index; the online help is stored on your PC, so you need not be connected to the internet). You may also find "Getting Started with DXLab" to be useful; here's a link to "Getting Started with Logging": http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/Logging If you have additional questions, please post them on the DXLab group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dxlab/ as I monitor it more closely than I do this mailing list. 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jim Abercrombie Sent: Monday, April 23, 2007 2:28 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [DX-CHAT] dxkeeper I downloaded dxkeeper.
