Garry, NI6T has solved my problem. Thank you..... I feel embarrassed that I did not think of that 90- degree offset feature. After all, subtracting 90 degrees from 123 put the rotor at 33 degrees. Duh!

My thought is to scan the logs and save them as text or comma delimited files. My questions are: - how to get them into DX4win and properly designating the proper fields - how to generate a proper ADIF file as per LoTW rules. Note that satellite QSO have to be treated differently. LoTW uses the following fields that I do not believe are supported by DX4Win directly or correctly in the creation of ADIF files: <BAND> -- the uplink band <PROP_MODE> -- various vhf/uhf modes. in this case it would be SAT <BAND_RX> -- the downlink band <SAT_NAME> -- the satellite name. Note that LoTW has specified th names. I've seen a minimalist Excel spreadsheet (author?) for inputting QSOs and dreating an SDIF file in lieu of a logbook, but it didn't have the fields I need and I'm no programmer to modify it! Any help is greatly (!) appreciated Thanks and 73, Eric W3DQ Washington, DC From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Mar 24 10:26:09 2005 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Richard Zalewski) Date: Thu Mar 24 10:30:50 2005 Subject: [Dx4win] Stop Pop Ups Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Is there a way to stop Announcements and WWV reports from activating the program even when it is minimized?
