Ok here it is apples to apples or oranges ( the apple is RTTY in DX4WIN and the oranges is PSK in DX4WIN ) In the psk mode when a call sign appears in the rx window and you want to put it in the qso call window you have 3 ways to do it: 1 ) you CLICK on it with the mouse. POINT AND CLICK or 2 ) you copy and paste it in, slower than the first step or 3) you type it in slower then the first two. Ok for casual contacts and thats if you can type ( you could have a cast on or whatever you can imagine. ) Try the first two steps in the rtty mode , in the DX4WIN RTTY RX window. now you may be able to copy a whole line but not a single letter or a call sign, and if you are in a contest this typing the call sign in is like using a horse & buggy. For the casual rtty contact you can poke along and type it in, all the rtty mode logging programs allow you to point and click to add the call sign and reports, so lets at least do what all the other programs let you do. There is a short fall in this program, that is easy to fix and the reason givin for not doing so is not valid in my opinion.
Just my opinion FWIW. Bob w8gc Tom Branch wrote: >Bob, > >I guess I'm confused...DX4WIN works fine for RTTY using my AEA PK-900.
