Re: [Dx4win] CW keying issue
Maybe someone with the problem can try this to tell me if it works (it worked in one of my friends). Do a right click on dx4win icon and in properties choose to run it always as administrator (if you have 7 or vista). I wonder if XP users with the problem have administrator rights?

Re: [Dx4win] CW keying issue
Kostas I am using Windows 7 and always log on as an administrator. Right clicking the DX4WIN logo and clicking run as administrator makes no difference as far as I can see. I still cannot get the CW keying to work with DX4WIN. 73 Ian, G3RVM -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Kostas Stamatis Sent: 05 January 2010 12:57 To: REFLECTOR dx4win Subject: Re: [Dx4win] CW keying issue Maybe someone with the problem can try this to tell me if it works (it worked in one of my friends).

[Dx4win] Data file updates coming
I plan to update some of the DX4WIN data files late the evening of Wednesday, 1/5 (that's Thursday morning GMT): - DX4WIN.AWD (awards) - DX4WIN.MAS2 (eQSL/LoTW member lists) - DX4WIN.TCP (telnet addresses) I hope that as part of the award release, I'll be able to generate members lists for certain awards, which can then be imported into the .MAS2 file. There are very sketchy release notes for the award update at: http://dx4win.ad1c.us/awards/ (maybe I'll try updating the list later today). Please let me know of any changes before then. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, jjreis...@alum.mit.edu, http://www.ad1c.us __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

[Dx4win] Wish List
Hi, I really like the option to choose between different radios quickly. Would it be hard to be able to include more than 2 in the next release? I would personally like to see 4. This is especially handy on VHF/UHF with different radios, not the all in one.

Re: [Dx4win] Wish List
I asked for this for ver 8... but apparently it requires a fair bit of work. Perhaps Paul has it on his todo list...

[Dx4win] dx4win and Orion
Thanks to all for replies to my question. I sucessfully got my Orion to work with dx4win. Seems I had an issue with the firmware I was using. A quik call to TenTec service got me squared away and with there help a newer version of firmware installed. 73,tnx Steve W1DXH __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Dx4win] Molex connectors for Icom.
They are *not* Molex connectors... though I've even seen some web sites incorrectly call them that. They will not mate properly with similar Molex connectors. The originals are made by JST in Japan. They also make most of the board connectors used by Icom... or did when I last checked a while back (10 years ago). __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

This is especially handy on VHF/UHF with different radios, not the all in one. Thanks- John W9RPM The problem with this is that it would require a proprietary hardware interface. The existing two-radio switching uses the industry standard LPT pin 14 toggle that's been around since the days of DOS loggers such as CT and TR. Paul even made the logic of this control line selectable to work with NA in Version 7. This convention works well with several commercially-available SO2R switch boxes such as the Top Ten DX Doubler I use. Using more than one LPT pin to do the radio selection would require some sort of decoding hardware to do the switching. I suppose pin 14 could serve as the least significant bit of a two-bit radio select word and it would be up to the user to come up with a custom switchbox to switch the various audio and control lines among the four radios. I know of no hardware that supports more than two radios. 73...
