I agree. The Winkey is very good. I miss it in Dx4Win. I now use the freeware SD-contest program from EI5DI where I can use the Winkey and then log it in Dx4win. That is a little awkward. 73 Goran/SM0CMH From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Dec 18 15:40:22 2005 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dave Perry) Date: Sun Dec 18 15:44:45 2005 Subject: [Dx4win] Using Avery, Brother, or Dymo Label Printers with DX4WIN?

Cliff: I have been using a Dymo 330 printer for over a year now with DX4WIN. Works great with a custom QSL label design that I created. It did take me a while (couple of hours) to design and test a custom label format to print out correctly on the Dymo. One thing I like about the Dymo is I can print one QSL at a time -- or many if printing for bureau. It also allows me to easily copy and paste the address label for sending direct (either to a manager or to the DX station's home address). I merely go to QRZ.com and find the callbook address, right click to copy, then open up or switch to the Dymo software if already loaded. I then click once on the New address button within the Dymo software, right click in the address box, paste the address, and then Save. Once saved, one more click prints out the mailing address. Very easy and fast! I also save my return address within the Dymo mailing list and then click on my own address to print a return label for the SASE. It is a little tricky setting up the custom label format the first time, but once you get it, you're off and running. It just takes a little patience and trial and error. But it works great!
