Martin, you paid for the software and it is yours. Just start a new log. That's what I do when operating portable as FP/KB9LIE from Miquelon every summer. I also have files for the OM's contest efforts from home and FP so we can upload to LOTW. He paper logs for day-to-day stuff but uses a laptop for contesting.
When you upgrade you might explain the situation and ask for the upgrade key with your homecall. It should still be an upgrade, not a new purchase. No different really than a US ham getting a different call. I believe the DX4WIN team is good about that, as they should be. They keep good records. 73 de Peg KB9LIE in snowy, windy SW Wisconsin USA. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi guys > > I've used DX4Win as 3C5J and this is the callsign that my version is > registered to. > > I'm now back at home as MW0BRO.

If you can envision the blade of a sword, Vista is on the leading edge and destined for a bloody and problematic release. XP is the next most recent release and thus on the trailing edge of the technology sword (curve). There will be many like new XP machines in the coming months and years that will be perfect for running DX4WIN. If you absolutely have to buy a new pc right now, get a suped up used XP machine. Plenty available online. Why buy a new pc with Vista until you know that DX4WIN can fully support it?
