Actually I think the Find function is just fine as it is. What I don't like is the new Frequency entry method since the 2002 version. I have entered frequency in my logs for the past 35+ years as 14.202, 7.100 etc. and now to have to enter 14202.0 or 7100.0 is UN-NATURAL!! Think about this, 432.8 MHZ now is entered 432800000.0 or if you operated on 1296 MHz, or any of those frequencies!! Yes I understand the reason they made the change, and if I used a rig control cable it would enter it automatically etc. But they have not come up with a method to control my Collins S-Line yet as I use it as much as the Icom 775DSP, so I still have to enter it by hand and learn to control my impulse to write the frequency the old way. Down Right Inconveinient and a Royal Pain if you ask me!!!
I know Courtney and Jack are laughing over this one as I hit them up about this at Dayton this last May - Something about serving the majority and not just one individual... 73's Gene K1GD Hank Kohl K8DD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>@mailman.qth.net on 09/18/2002 08:25:54 AM Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: <[email protected]> cc: Subject: Re: [DXBase] Feature request But if you are not in the callsign field when you press Control-F it will return with an error if you search for a callsign. When I'm confirming QSL's I search for the call mark it received (it would be nice to make a shortcut for this) press F8 to queue it for printing then I want to Control-F and enter another call, but I have to be in the callsign field to have DXBase search for the call. I would like to see the search function look anywhere - would make it easier when you have a stack of QSL's that need replies. 73 Hank K8DD At 9/18/2002 09:15 AM -0400, Bill Nowicki [WA4OYH] wrote: >Dave, >You can create a shortcut by selecting TOOLS from the menu bar and then >SHORTCUTS.
