Just wanted to let everyone, especially Joe, know what a fun morning I've had working RTTY and PSK. We had about 5 inches of snow last night and after I got done plowing I fired up the radio and tried my first on the air QSO with the new improved DXBasePSK V2.29 program. Had a pleasant chat with Steve N1AB in CA and logged the QSO directly into DXB with no problem. Decided to chase some RTTY DX that was spotted so switched over to AXETTY, but couldn't copy any of the Africa stations being spotted. So I turned the beam a bit and called CQ and then ran 18 RTTY QSO's, including Bill W9LO in Chicago. What fun! The only problem was when AB1J in MA sent me a 579 report and I tried to edit the RSTR box before logging the QSO. Apparently it doesn't like to take an insert in the middle of the numbers and I ended up logging 59 instead of 579. I'll have to watch that closer in the future.
Now if Santa will just hurry up and get here with the new IC-7600 so I can get that setup and going I'll be a real happy camper! Thanks for all the patches, fixes and updates to these two great digital programs Joe! Have a most Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 73, Gary AL9A ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
