Re: [Dx4win] Delete multiple QSOs

2023-11-30 Thread Claes "Mel" Carneheim
Hi Joseph,
When you have the QSOs you want to delete in the logbook window, click on
*QSO* in the logging window and choose *Multiple QSOs operations* (rar down
in the list) and then choose *Delete QSOs* (in the bottom of the list).

Re: [Dx4win] DXCC

2023-11-18 Thread Claes &quot;Mel" Carneheim
I suggest that you flag them with S (for submitted) in respective DXCC
fields (Mixed, Band and Mode) as needed.
Then it is easy to search for them and creat a list for submission. When
they have been accepted you could change the DXCC flags by go to
Reports|Award flags|Award DXCC mixed|Action Submitted -> Checked.
You have to repeat this for Award DXCC band and Award DXCC mode.

[Dx4win] An extra state in WAS listing

2023-01-07 Thread Claes &quot;Mel" Carneheim
Hi all and HNY

When I was looking at my WAS listing I have got an extra state (3L) at the
end of the report list. I have tried to search for it both by clicking on
the C for the band in the list and searching (F8) for 3L in the state
field, but neither gave an answer.

I exported the whole log as a DXQ-file and tried to search it with a text
editor without success.

 When I look at the summary report for WAS ít is summarized to 51 of 50
available.

Does anyone have an idea of how to get rid of the 51st state in my WAS
reports.

Re: [Dx4win] Import ADIF

2021-11-20 Thread Claes &quot;Mel" Carneheim
Hi Luc,

All files downloaded from LOTW will by default  end up in the folder
Downloads. The first on will be called lotwreport.adi, the second
lotwreport(1).adi, the third lotwreport(2).adi until
lotwreport(99).adi thereafter the files will be named with current day's
date lotwreport211120.adi, if you do not delete them

I suggest you delete all your lotwreport files in your Download folder.
Then the next you download will be lotwreport.adi

Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win ADIF Importing Question

2021-02-05 Thread Claes &quot;Mel" Carneheim
Hi Eric,

You just import the ADIF file into Jim's program ADIF to DX4WIN. In the
program you could add the name in QSO Note field and if it is a contest
with serial numbers you could tick Exchg/Serial box and the serial number
you sent will turn up in the Notes for this QSO field in DX4WIN. If the
contest is not within the list of supported contests and if the exchange is
serial number you can use CQWPX contest instead.

[Dx4win] Communication between DX4WIN and IC7600 does not work

2019-06-30 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Communication between DX4WIN and my ICOM 7600 does not work.

If I would like to grab a station from the Band Map the frequency changes
accordingly in the Frequency field but after approximately 5 seconds it
changes back to the previous frequency and nothing happens on the radio.

However, information from radio to program works nicely. If I turn the VFO
frequency changes in the Frequency field accordingly. The same is true for
band and mode changes.

Both N1MM and DXlog works nicely both directions.
I need help with suggestions what to do?

[Dx4win] Fwd: Why You Should Backup Your Log - NOW!

2018-09-06 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Just  comment;

I have my log saved in Dropbox. I can open it direct from DX4WIN and as
DX4WIN remember where the log file is it will always open it from Dropbox.
Files are stored and backed up in Dropbox. Since Dropboxfiles are reachable
from the computer when it is not connected to the net, it is always
possible to use the logbook and then when connected it will be saved
online. To be 'extra' sure I save the backup files to an external HD
directly from DX4WIN. Dropbox keeps track of versions so if something goes
wrong it is possible to go back to an earlier version of the log.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN report for LoTW

2018-08-29 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hello Isidor

A way to do it is to search for all contacts you have confirmed by LOTW.
Press F8 and change LoTW Confirm to Y in the QSO window.
Then you have selected all your QSOs confirmed by LOTW.
Export them by clicking File|Import/Export and select DX4WIN9 in the
Import/Export window. Click File|Export. Save the file as e.g. LoTW
Exit Import/Export window by clicking File|Exit.
Create a new logbook by clicking File|New and name it e.g. LoTW.
Then import the file you just exported by clicking File|Import/Export and
select DX4WIN9 in the Import/Export window. Click File|Import and select
the file you just exported. Click open
Now you have a new logbook with just your contacts confirmed in LoTW and
you could create a DXCC report for them.

[Dx4win] IC7600 and DX4WIN hopefully the last time

2018-08-13 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hello again,

I think I have solved the problem, however I do not understand why.

The problem was>
When I click on a spot in the band map or in the spot window the frequency
changes accordingly in the band map and in the logging window but after 1-2
s the frequency change back to the one seen on the radio. The mode has
changed both in the logging window and on the radio. However, if I change
the frequency or the mode on the rig it changes in DX4WIN. Thus, it is only
the communication of frequency from DX4WIN to the rig that does not work.

Then I tested to use ICOM 756 Pro III as rig but changed the address from
6E to 7A, then everything worked nicely.

I compared ICOm 756 Pro III and ICOM 7600 rig-files and one of the
differences were the ADDR line stating 110 for ICOM 7560 Pro III and 122
for ICOM 7600. All other differences are listed at the very end of all
other listings below.

I changed the address to 110 in the ICOM 7600 and the default address
changed to 6E in the radio setting window in DX4WIN. If running the program
as this the connection between  radio and program timed out and the
connection was disabled. Then I changed the address manually to 7A  in the
radio setting window in DX4WIN.  The result was a fully functional
connection between DX4WIN and the rig.

It seems like it was the presetting of ADDR=122 that made the problem. This
commadnd dit set 7A as default address in DX4WIN, but something must have
gone wrong.

I write all this in the hope that those who know programming than me should
be able to find a more proper solution.

I have got two comments from peoples that have had the same problem; one
who changed to another port to serial program and the other who used the
earlier version of Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge, i.e. v. 6.6.0.0.

As is it seems to work and I am happy with it. I have once again listed all
equipment, settings and program versions below.

Re: [Dx4win] Problem connecting a IC7600

2018-08-10 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Thanks for your suggestion Tibor.

I think something that the problem is the IC-7600 RIG file.

If I use ICOM 756 PRO III rig file and change the address to 7A Hex
everything works except if I press PSK on the radio, then the mode in the
log-window shows SSB. This is maybe how it should be if the PSK is
generated via the sound card in the rig.

I am not a programmer and can thus not compare the two RIG files.

Below I have added all the tests I have done and once again all settings
etc.

73 de Mel/SM0MPV

When I click on a spot in the band map or in the spot window the frequency
changes accordingly in the band map and in the logging window but after 1-2
s the frequency change back to the one seen on the radio. The mode has
changed both in the logging window and on the radio. However, if I change
the frequency or the mode on the rig it changes in DX4WIN. Thus, it is only
the communication of frequency from DX4WIN to the rig that does not work.

Everything works if I use N1MMplus or Ham Radio Delux.

I can connect to a Kenwood TS-590 with DX4WIN.

The problem remains if I connect another computer, this time with Windows
10 and 64-bit system.
N1MMplus works with IC-7600 and DX4WIN connection to the TS-590 works from
this computer.

I have changed cables and ports without success.

The remote jack (CI-V jack) has been both connected and unconnected to my
amplifier (SPE Expert 1K-FA) and it did not affect the result.

I have restarted the computer and the rig several times, but not in any
systematical way.

[Dx4win] Stil problems with my IC-7600

2018-08-06 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hello again,

I have the following problems:
When I click on a spot either on the band plan or in the spot window. The
callsign turns up in the Callsign field in the loging window. The frequency
and the mode changes but the frequency goes back to the initial, i.e. the
one on the radio had at start while the mode changes to the one the station
I was clicking on had.

Eg. if the radio is on 14040 and cw and I click on SM0XX on 14253 DX4WIN
add SM0XX and SSB in respective field, the program also changes the
frequency to 14253 but after 2-3 seconds it changes back to 14040. When it
jump back the Follow radio box is ticked on the band map. The mode remains
on SSB.

If I turn the VFO dial on the rig the frequency changes accordingly in
DX4WIN and remains on the frequency set.

The same goes for changing mode on the rig, DX4WIN follows.

I can run my TS-590 over an USB A-B connection. I have it set up as second
radio and can start it within the program.

So my question is , why is not the frequency added in DX4WIN. What setting
have I missed?

Here are my settings. Using Windows 7 Professional
I use the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART bridge

I have the com port set to:
Bits per second: 9600
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Row control: None
It is Windos 7 Professional I use

The radio settings in DX4WIN are
ICOM 7600 _K2DBK, i.e. ON4AOI except the filter.
Address: 7A
Baud Rate: 9600
COM port: COM6
Poll rate (ms): 1000
Max tries: 6
DTR high and RTS high marked

I connect the the computer and the rig via an USB A and B cable

The settings in the radio are:
CI-V baud rate: 9600
CI-V Address: 7Ah
CI-V Tranceive: OFF
CI-V OutPut (for ANT): OFF
USB Serial Function: CI-V

Re: [Dx4win] Problem connecting a IC7600

2018-08-06 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Thanks David,

I have just tested your RIG file too and I got the same result as earlier.
What I see is that when I click on a spot o the band map the program
changes frequency bet then very soon goes back to the first one. The
callsign for the spoted station remains in the QSO window. When I turn the
dial on the radio the frequency changes in the band map and in the QSO
window in DX4WIN.

I use the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART bridge

I have the com port set to:
Bits per second: 9600
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Row control: None
It is Windos 7 Professional I use

The radio settings in DX4WIN are
ICOM 7600 _K2DBK, i.e. ON4AOI except the filter.
Address: 7A
Baud Rate: 9600
COM port: COM6
Poll rate (ms): 1000
Max tries: 6
DTR high and RTS high marked

I connect the the computer and the rig via an USB A and B cable

The settings in the radio are:
CI-V baud rate: 9600
CI-V Address: 7Ah
CI-V Tranceive: OFF
CI-V OutPut (for ANT): OFF
USB Serial Function: CI-V

I will later connect my SPE Expert 1K-FA amplifier to the rig. Since it can
just communicate with 9600 baud so I believe I am stucked with this baud
rate. The communication goes between the remote (CI-V) jack on the rig and
the RS 232  connection on the amplifier.

[Dx4win] Problem connecting a IC7600

2018-08-04 Thread Mel SM0MPV
I have just bought an IC 7600 and have been struggling to get the
communication between the computer and the rig to work.

I us a Dell with XP professional 64 bits, DX4WIN 9.04 and have connected
the rig with an USB-cable. I have an SPE Expert 1K-FA amplifier connected
via ALC, Send and C-IV.

All baud rates are set the same 9600 in DX4WIN, the com port, the rig and
amplifier.

I have tried to use both ICOM 7600_250Hz and the ICOM 7600_500Hz

The program and rig do not match, when clicking on a spot or a spot from
the band map. It seems like it is the frequencies that do not match, mode
changes, but I have not tested this so much.

When using N1MM everything works.

Any suggestions what to do?

[Dx4win] Mode RTTYM

2017-11-13 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hello,

Suddenly has RTTY changed to RTTYM in the list of modes.
All my old rtty contacts are listed as RTTY, however when adding a new QSO,
or since I work  AFSK I change the mode after the QSO to RTTY instead of
SSB, the only RTTY mode in my list is RTTYM. RTTYM is exported to the adif
file for uploadng to various databases.

Is this as it should be? I am using DX4WIN 9.02 and a lenovo ThinkPad X230.

Hello and HNY to you all,

Is there any possibility to change the field length of the Callsign field.
As is the Canadian calls VE100VIMY/Vxx is not possible to add into the log.

I guess it is possible tho change the adif file before loading it to LOTW,
but it will not be confimed in my log if the call is too long.

Any suggestions?

[Dx4win] Bug when importing from LOTW

2014-09-25 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hello!

If stations from Russia has added their oblast in LOTW, those from
Moscow (MA) or Moscow region (MO) will in DX4WIN sometimes be added as
MA zone 5 or MO zone 4, respectively. Thus it seems like if there is
an abrevation that is the same as an US state it will be entered in
the state field and the CQ zone of that state will be added,
independent of country prefix. This has also true for one VK6 stations
(WA) and and one BY4 stations (SD).

I have attached a copy of a record from LOTW that afte import to
DX4WIN turns up as:
Perfix UA
State MO
Zone 4

It is not all imported records that have this effekt. The second
record (R3AG) did not add MA to the State field.

I am using DX4WIN 8.05 on a Lenovo Thinkpad X201 with Windows 7.

8.05 works great with Windows 7.

I recently tried to install 6.03 on my Windows 7 to test something for
someone. I could not get past the port problems. I finally was able to

There have been a lot of improvements since version 6, especially in

 Subject: [ARRL-LOTW] Trusted QSL version 1.14 is available for beta testing


 Over the past 4 months, Rick K1MU, Robert KC2YWE, and I have rebooted the
 Trusted QSL project from which the TQSL and TQSLCert
 applications and the TrustedQSL library are built. After considering input 
 from
 ARRL Management, from the ARRL?s LotW Support Group,
 and from this ARRL-LotW Yahoo Group, we established a set of priorities that
 would be addressed by a sequence of incremental
 releases. The first release in this sequence is version 1.14, in which

 1. Log files can be signed and uploaded over the internet to LotW in
 one operation.
 2. Errors in Station Locations are reported (e.g. incorrect CQ and ITU zones).
 3. QSOs that need not be re-submitted ('duplicates') are brought to
 the user's attention.
 4. Error reporting has been improved.
 5. Installation on Windows has been improved.
 6. Users are notified when a new version becomes available.
 7. Documentation has been improved.

 A small group of testers began exercising version 1.14 on March 10th;
 this testing exposed several defects, all of which have been
 corrected. We are now ready to begin the next stage of testing: every
 member of this Yahoo Group is invited to download version 1.14,
 install it, and give it a try. Questions, defect reports, and
 suggestions should be posted here.

 The current release candidate v1.14-rc5 is available via

  http://www.arrl.org/trustedqsl-beta-release

 You can review the documentation for v1.14-rc5 before you download and
 install it:

Re: [Dx4win] Info request re import log

2013-03-25 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hi Bob,

The easiest answer is to export your current log as an ADIF file and
import the ADIF file into DX4WIN. However, it is depending on how you
would like your logbook in DX4WIN to work. If you are working from
different QTHs or if you have different callsigns you may consider
using the group feature as been suggested by Kostas in another thread
above. Then you can combined all calls and QTHs for statistics, DXCC
and other diplomas.

I suggest that you start with a small portion of your log to see how
it works and if the result is satifactory.

Re: [Dx4win] HELP!!!

Be careful backing up like that because after saving to a new location that 
becomes the current file. I would suggest not using the same name for a backup 
file and if you do a backup by saving to a new location just reopen the 
original file immediately. BTW, I've done the same thing so speaking from 
experience. Glad you were able to recover.

However my HELP email was not necessary. I have found the problem. 14 days
ago I backed up my entire log onto a pen drive which I left plugged into a
USB connector on the PC. Since then every time I started DX4Win it opened
from the pen drive. This morning I unplugged the pen drive and then the log
opened from the g3svd.dxl file in the SAVE directory, which was missing all
the QSOs. All my qsos up to the moment that the screen froze were on the pen
drive. I have now copied that file into the save directory, deleted the old

Normally your log is saved in name.dxl file in dx4win/save directory.
Beside this there is a backup file with the name name.~xl
You need to rename this file to something like backup.dxl and open it. 
If it is better, save as and put the name you want.
If you have enabled the backup directory probably your log is there also.
I wonder if you had another directory where you save your log and after 
reboot, dx4win came back to its original configuration where it found an 
old dxl file. Search your computer for *.dxl and *.~xl
good luck

 Today I had a situation, my screen froze and to get out of it I had to
 reboot. When I rebooted and started DX4Win it opened apparently as normal
 but only showing QSOs up to March 3rd. I have some ADI files covering part
 of the missing log which I produced on March 11th and again on March 19th
 for LOTW upload. I assume that I can just re-import these into DX4win?
They
 are stored in the SAVE directory. However between the upload yesterday and
 the loss at about mid-day today I had various QSOs with T2GM, H44G and
H40T.
 Except, possibly for the most recent when the screen froze, I am sure that
I
 saved them regularly, it's a habit.

   

 How can I rescue these from the Back-up folder in the SAVE directory?
Which
 files contain that information? How do I import it to DX4win.dxl?

   

 Any help will be greatly appreciated.

on line

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN and IOTA

2013-02-06 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hi Alan,
You cannot upload any files for IOTA awards unless you have
participated in the IOTA contest and submitted an cabrillo file for
participating in the contest. Then you can use that file to add the
new island you worked and that have been accepted as an valid contact
in the contest to your IOTA account. This is possible first when the
logs have been checked.

The change from submitted to checked
If you go in under the report heading in the top menu of the QSO
window and click on the Award flags button you can in the Award field
select IOTA mixed and in the Action field select Submitted - Checked.
Then all contacts you have labeled with a S in the IOTA column and the
mixed field will be converted to a C for checked.

Good luck in the chasing of IOTAs

2013/2/6 ALAN ZACK k7...@cox.net:
 I wonder if there are any DX4WIN users out there who also make submissions
 to their IOTA card checker for IOTA credits.

 I know I can use the REPORT GENERATOR: IOTA: SUBMISSIONS and get a list of
 IOTA contacts that I have marked for submission in the bottom of the main
 logging window. I also know I can download this report as a excel file. Now
 after I made my submission I have 249 IOTA's confirmed for credit. Now I
 need to change the status of these 249 contacts from S to C. Is there an
 easy way to do this other than change each contact individually?

 Also is there an easy way to export IOTA QSO data from DX4WIN to a file to
 import to the IOTA webpage submissions page? Presently I use the excel file
 I generate from DX4WIN and manually type in the data for each QSO into the
 IOTA submissions page.



 After my submissions are completed by RSGB IOTA I can download a .csv file
 of my IOTA credits. Is there any way I can use this .csv file to import to
 DX4WIN to change my submission status from S to C?



 Below is an example of the .csv file data that I can get from the IOTA web
 pages if this info could be used to update DX4WIN other than doing it
 manually:

 I don't know of a good way to do this.  I worked five new countries

 identify three of them without resorting to some crazy searches
 outside DX4WIN, which I'm too lazy to do.  I just wanted to know out

 The Same Call Sign window incorrectly returned a QSO I had with KD3DK. The

 But in the Logbook sorted by Date I found the QSO I had with KD3WK

 the Same Call Sign window.

There are four different kinds of callsign matches.  It sounds like
you have Fuzzy selected in your preferences.

Having said that, if your QSO window is showing a particular call as
the result of a search, that same call/QSO should be highlighted in
both the Same Call and the Logbook windows.  If it is not, then
something is wrong.

An explanation of the above...

On 160-10 I want to see spots from NA and Western EU
On  6 and up just from spotters or stations on the East Coast
Reject W3LPL spots

You can also refine it by band or range of bands if you wish... just use the
help command or consult the on-line documentation

Once you set up your filters on a DX cluster they will be persistent over
time unless the sysop does a major reset...

all the items for each QSO in one cell.


I tried to check the archives but didn't find anything.  They seem to be
organized by month and you'd have to open them one month at a time and scan
through.  Am I missing something?.  Is there a way to search them for a key
word, such as CSV?

Thanks,

Re: [Dx4win] dxcc vs. vucc

2012-09-12 Thread Mel Martin
He doesn't need to redo his uploads just update his LotW station info. Our
actuary at work is Hungarian born. If you drop me a note with the stations
name/call/e-mail at mel.mar...@acegroup.com I'll pass it on and have him
send a request in Hungarian.

To fix it in DX4Win set the VUCC flag to ignore on the QSO.

Subject: [Dx4win] dxcc vs. vucc

I worked a Hungary station on 6 meters on June 29th.  A few days later, our
LOTW uploads matched giving me a new country on 6 for DXCC.  Unfortunately ,
he did not fill out his TQSL info so he had no zone or VUCC grid listed.  So
I did not get a VUCC match for his grid.

In DX4WIN, I show a letter C for a confirmation on VUCC reports as well as
the C for DXCC reports.  It should NOT show a VUCC match because he did
not list his grid.  I have asked him 3 times to complete the TQSL info and
resubmit all his erroneous uploads including mine (of course!), but he has
not done it and may not understand my English or want to do it.  I do have a
card in the mail system which , if received some day, will satisfy the VUCC
requirement for the ARRL.

But can't DX4WIN handle my situation so I do not show that the his grid has
been confirmed?

You can easily add the missing districts by open the awd file in the

 Hi Jim,

 I noticed that in DX4Win the districts of MA area (Moscow city) are
 limited to MA-10 but in the RDA contest there was a station that gave
 me MA-12 which is also listed in the RDA web page
 http://rdaward.org/rdac1.htm (link RDA List). So the following
 districts are missing from the dx4win.awd:
 MA-11 NOVOMOSKOVSKY
 MA-12 TROITSKY

 I tested adif2dxq briefly yesterday with the RDA contest adif file and
 it seemed to populate the award fields. I have to check again that the
 populated fields are really the ones that I had in the WinTest log.

Hello;



I found a bug in showing the logbook.



In my log I have 4 different QSO for JT on 20m in RTTY. (no one confirmed)

If I use the filter (dxcc JT, mode RTTY, band 20m) I see them al in the
logbook form.

If I double click in the DXCC-window on the 20m RTTY, when it shows my
standings for JT, it shows only 2 QSO. That is wrong.

When I double click on DIG in the DXCC-window I see them all (include qso's
on outher bands in RTTY for JT) in the logbook form.

2 of the 4 qso's have a QSL-date. Those that are no QSL-date are not listed.
If I change the uploaddate for one of the qso's without qsl-date. I have the
same result.

If I set a QSL-date then the QSO appear in the logbook form. 

I like more that all qso's appear regardless a QSL is send or not.

 If you are submitting a new WPX award, please try this:

 In the Change Award Flags window, choose Award = WPX Mixed, Action =

 Now close the Change Award Flags window, and do the WPX submission

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN networking

2012-07-12 Thread Mel (ve2dc)
Think about what you just wrote. OK I agree, it's a great idea if you never 
make mistakes. However, most of us do. DX4Win is an old design where networking 
was never considered. If networking is required there are plenty of loging 
programs that do this properly.

I do occasionally operate from a second location. I just keep separate logs and 
merge.

Very bad idea if the programs are open simultaneously
This is not true it can work perfect if the user doesn´t make mistakes .

But first my answer to Glyn GW0ANA his question,
The way you expect it to work (updating all 3 instandly) is NOT supported 
without tricks or workarounds
But it can be done if the user is alert all the time.

I am NOT going to explain in detail how to setup all because there are always 
small risks and you need to spent money 
but I am running DX4WIN daily on 4 computers with only one log and never had 
any problem.
In short how to:

PC1 is the server (with SSD drive)
You need to buy for instance RealVNC or Radmin or you can use Teamviewer(free)
I have bought licenses for all 3 but prefer Radmin (screen delay is nearly 0 
when using digital modes)
PC1 is started up with Radmin server (I only reboot this PC once in a month, no 
updates allowed) 
DX4WIN is started and running 24/24 (with dropbox for backup etc)

PC2
Here I start Radmin viewer and take over the screen from PC1   

PC3
Here I also start Radmin viewer and take over the screen from PC1  
  
PC4
PC5 
-
-
-

You can type on any computer and all others are updating without delay.
After each qso I log I have the habit to use ALT-S (qso is written to disk and 
also dropbox is updated)


Without delay means that you must have reliable network and if you do it from 
remote location high speed internet

 John,
 You really don't want to do that.

 LoTW doesn't keep much data from your log, so you'll lose a lot of
 information.
 LoTW stores Callsign, band (TX and RX), mode, date, start time, frequency
 (TX and RX), Satellite name, and propagation mode. Nothing else from the
 log is stored by LoTW, which means you can't get it back that way.

 You'll lose any notes you have for QSOs, none of the contacts will be
 marked as confirmed (except for those QSLed on LoTW), information on when
 you sent out QSLs, and so forth. All of the DXCC status will be lost
 (nothing will be marked as checked). This will take forever for you to fix
 if there's a large number of QSOs.

 And, I don't think this will help you in any case, as you'll end up with
 exactly the same problem you currently have: you'll be using the current
 country file to determine the entity for each contact in the new log, 
 which
 should end up with the same set of bad mappings to entities.

 Unfortunately, I think you're going to have to find and fix the problems
 with your log some other way.

Re: [Dx4win] DX Spots with VE3SUN DX Monitor

2012-04-22 Thread Mel Martin
What makes you think you can? I took a quick look at the VE3SUN site and I
didn't see anything about it including a Telnet server, just a client. Why
don't you use VE7CC's software. It does work with DX4Win and it's free.

Slight correction on the Filter Setting. NO space between W3LPL and -3.
 
This is the correct Filter:
 

SET DX FILTER ( Cty  K and Cty  VE ) AND ( SpotterCty = K Or SpotterCty

FYI
 
Here is the Filter I use on my local AR-Cluster ( KQ8M.NO-IP.ORG ) which is
running Version 6 :
 
SET DX FILTER ( Cty  K and Cty  VE ) AND ( SpotterCty = K Or SpotterCty
= VE ) AND SPOTTER  W3LPL -3
 
This is what it does..
 
It excludes K  VE stations from being spotted  AND It supplies spots only
from K  VE stations  AND It excludes all spots from a certain spotter.
 
Hope this helps users on newer AR-Clusters.
 
73/GL,   Bob K8BL
 
P.S.  The exclusion of the K  VE stations being spotted is to
 avoid seeing Skimmer spots of domestic CQ'ers.  It's easy
 to turn them back ON during domestic Contests.

Jerry,
 
The Node I use has VERY flexible filters. I have had the certain spotter's
un-hearable spots completely eliminated. The Node allows me to filter by
Continent, Spotter, Country, etc., etc., etc.
 
AND, the Node has Skimmers which can be turned on/off at will and set to
only spot by numerous criteria.  It's pretty new and absolutely great!!
 
Everyone should give it a try!!  It's  KQ8M.NO-IP.ORG
 
It's run by Tim KQ8M who is a long-time DX-er and Contester and he bends
over backwards to accomodate the Users' needs.
 
Tim will help you set up a Filter customized for you.  Once you have it, you
can possibly use it on your regular Cluster.

Re: [Dx4win] Reconciling DXCC credits with DX4WIN

2012-04-10 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Credits received before the computerization of the ARRL DXCC program turns
up as the entities prefix i.e. EP2AU worked in 1964 turns up as EP in the
list. My suggestion is that if you have contacts from this time and do not
know which one actually was used; choose one of the stations you have a QSL
card from then you can change that QSO's
DXCC award flags to match the DXCC credit shown on LoTW.as Jim suggest in
his mail. It is not the actual callsign that is compared in Jim's very
useful program.

73 de Mel - SM0MPV
8S0C - Contest Call


2012/4/10 Jim Reisert AD1C jjreis...@alum.mit.edu

 I'm sure a couple of you have read this application note:

DXCC Award Tracking in DX4WIN
http://dx4win.ad1c.us/appnotes/dxcc.html

  and maybe a few have tried this program


Compare DX4WIN DXCC Credit Status with LoTW
http://dx4win.ad1c.us/lotw/

 Here's a tip about how to make DX4WIN match your ARRL DXCC records
 when you have been awarded DXCC credit, but DX4WIN does not have a
 record of such.

 Lot into your Logbook of the World (LoTW) account.  Click on the
 Awards link at the top, then Select DXCC Award Account on the left.
 You will see a table showing the number of DXCC credits you have been
 awarded for each award.  Notice that the Award names (i.e. CW or 40M)
 are hyperlinks.  Click on one of those links.  Next, you'll see
 another window with some choices.  Next to View, select the radio
 button that says All credits.   Then click on Select DXCC Award to
 View.  You will get a listing with two columns -- Entity on the
 left and the DXCC award name you selected (i.e. 40M) on the right.
 The callsigns in the right-hand column are all hyperlinks. By clicking
 on a callsign, you will see the actual QSO data for which you received
 that DXCC credit, i.e. Palau.  You can use this information to
 identify the matching QSO in DX4WIN, then you can change that QSO's
 DXCC award flags to match the DXCC credit shown on LoTW.  (i.e. set
 DXCC Band flag to C[hecked]).  Repeat for all all DXCC credits until
 you can run the Compare DX4WIN DXCC Credit Status with LoTW program
 with no errors.

 I don't know which QSO comes up for credits that your received before
 the computerization of the ARRL DXCC program. However, matching ANY
 confirmed QSO on the same band or mode will give you the same credit.

 Filters do not affect how the log is saved.  All the QSOs in the .DXL

You can create a macro file with the following lines:
CQ CQ CQ de %~ %~ %!
%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b%b

It will call CQ 3 times and adjust the %b lines for the appropriate 
delay... you could make a file with as many CQ's as you want.

You then call the macro file with the appropriate command %f followed by 
the filename I think, but better check the help file.

That's nothing to do with the list, you obviously have Outlook set up as 
your default mail program. Easily changed in Control Panel.

Also, most of the stuff in archive you indicated is from many years 
ago... before DX4Win supported LotW. DX4Win has been around a lot longer 
than LotW. I saw no posts in the first few pages relative to your issue.

To summarize... there are no issues regarding states with the current or 
recent versions of DX4Win... there is no issues with the list... there 
are no issues with the list's users. How else can we help you?

 OK about the TQ8 file. Thanks for reminding me.

 Here is what I was going to send as a response.

Sure pick on the new guy :)
 I did a search:

 and found many clamoring for statehood!

 I,m the new guy on the block.
 Maybe someone can properly advise DX4WIN users the proper way to use TQ8 
 files.

 Should probably be a LoTW pre-requisite prior to uploading.

 Also, on the DX4WIN website there are several ways to save ADIF to DX4WIN.
 Guess that could be a spot for keying errors:(

Re: [Dx4win] QSL Labels for Multiple Calls

I wonder if the best solution would be to use one of the many QSL label

 Fair enough, this is an option. Thank you for the suggestion.
 Still, the only customizable info is PSE or TNX QSL and a phrase that

 no solution if I want something else. _/For example/_, no comment at all
 on PJ7X label, and PSE QSL via REF on TO5FJ label.
 In other words, a fully customizable label text for each callsign.
 Instead of customizing the label one time for the whole program, how
 about a customizable label text per callsign ?

 Hello Paul
 Group name is log specific.
 So you have printing preferences something like

 so dx4win will print pse or tnx ... 73 de groupname in every case

 So let's suppose you have your personal log.
 All qsos should be at group 1 named F6EXV.
 This will print Pse/Tnx... 73 de F6EXV

 The log with the multiple logs
 in group1 we have TO5FJ, in group2 PJ7X etc.
 the same command will print, depending on the group...
 Pse/Tnc... 73 de TO5FJ or PJ7X etc.
 I think this is the better way to handle this.

 Hi all
 My situation is slightly different.
 I have my main log F6EXV as a stand-alone log, so that statistics and so
 on are appropriate.
 I manage several operations like TO5FJ, PJ7X to just name 2, so I do not
 want to mix these calls with any other.
 When I have to print a label for TO5FJ, I have to go to
 Files/Preferences/Rep-Label and change the2 lines of comments. Then I
 print the lables. If I need to print a label from PJ7X to that same
 station, I have to go over all the process again.
 The difference in the label comments are not necesarily only the
 callsign.

 In other words, I wish I could define a label (size and comment) for
 each callsign. Then, when I open a different log, I should be able to
 select the TO5FJ or PJ7X label under  QSLs/Print QSL label instead
 of modifying each time I change logs.

 Any idea ?

 As it is now, I need to mark a different QSL method for the /1 QSOs

 North/South Cook, Ogasawara vs. Minami Torishima) to invalid: QSO's.

 I tried to get DX4WIN to invalidate the invalid QSO's by using
 QSO/Mark invalid for awards, which put an I in Mixed/Band/Mode for 9
 different awards. That is apparently insufficient, as these QSO's keep
 coming up in the Clublog report. The index has no entries for Invalid
 QSO so I am at a loss as to how to proceed.

 How does one declare a QSO to be invalid?

 For instance, W4GKM who gave me zone 4 was changed to 5.  TN is a  Zone 4 
 state, not 5.  The program erroneously and immaturely saw the 4 in the W4 and 
 thought it belongs in the zone where most W4's are normally  are.   NOT!  
 With the advent of any call for any area, many hams do not represent the 
 geographical state that their call would normally stand for.  Another 
 example: W2VKT from Arizona in Zone 3 got changed to, guess what, Zone 5 
 because of the W2 in his call.

 How can I prevent this from happening next time?

 Thanks for offering help to Tom, but I'm afraid you've confused me (a
 state not unknown to me).

 1) Presumably you mean to press all 4 of the keys you mention above
 -simultaneously-?


 OK, I see how that's open to interpretation. Press the ctrl key and
 release. Then press the Shift key and release. and so on.

 2) What is the Start key?

 On Windows Keyboards, it's the Windows key usually between Ctrl and
 Alt.

Re: [Dx4win] Wish for next version of DX4Win

2011-12-10 Thread Mel
IMO it's never going to happen Ernie...

You have to understand that DX4Win is designed primarily as an award 
chasing and tracking program. What you are complaining about is one of 
it's best features... for award tracking you generally only care about 
current information. One edit and it's all up to date! For those 
exceptional situations where you need info linked to a QSO instead of 
the callsign, you have the free-form  Notes for this QSO. If what you 
want is a historical archive of all your contacts, then you should 
transfer your DX4Win QSO's to something better suited. A program like 
DXKeeper would be the ticket, and it's free.

 That is, that the name and QTH of the contact be correct as at the date of
 the QSO with that particular station.



 It seems to me that any top-class logger would have that as a given, but
 DX4Win changes one, changes all!



 Sigh.

Re: [Dx4win] Wish for next version DX4Win

2011-12-09 Thread Mel
I believe Paul tried to implement the auto-login to a cluster last 
version but it didn't make the release due to some technical issues. 
Maybe next time.

The trouble with auto login to LotW, automatic retrieval of data from 
QRZ (other than the paid subscription to the XML feed) and similar 
features is it generates a lot of maintenance headaches. I prefer DX4Win 
to be stable, and I think Paul is past the point he likes to tinker with 
DX4Win for the sake of tinkering.

So I think we might see auto-login to the spotting networks, and we 
might see support for the QRZ com XML interface next major release... 
but I'm pretty skeptical about the rest.

Pretty busy weekend planned, but I'll try and get on 10 for a couple of 
hours anyway. Should be interesting...

 Yes, you are correct...I insert a delay to allow VE7CC to load...then
 BATCHRUN starts CW Skimmer... delay, then Bandmaster (100% better Bandmap
 than what is in DX4WIN)...delay...then DX4WIN.

 Unfortunately, DX4WIN does not connect to the last used Internet Connection.
 If it did, then the entire process would kick off with one click.

 Paul took us part of the way there by moving the last used Internet
 Connection to the top of the .TCP list but we needed him to go a 'baby step'
 further by actually automating the connect. Maybe in the future

 Additionally, most of the 'other' logging programs allow for an automatic
 upload/ download of LOTW...enter your user name/ password in your
 'Preferences' and off you go to LOTWland to send and retrieve your
 confirmations...without going through the multiple steps of the current
 version of DX4WIN...(Jim, maybe you can write a standalone app which will
 interrogate our DX4WIN database and automate this?...in your spare time! Hi

 I think what people really want is a way to auto-log into the DX
 cluster when it starts.  I know the VE7CC software can do that, but
 BATCHRUN would have to delay the starting of DX4WIN until after the
 VE7CC software is up and running, before it tries to connect.

 This all assumes that Paul finds a way to add auto-connect to a future
 version of DX4WIN

 The VE7CC software gives you a lot of filtering flexibility, more than
 Paul can probably add to DX4WIN. I do agree that having to download
 and install a 4MB program simply to block one spotter's call seems
 excessive.

My other logging program, Logic (Hosenose.com) does but I never used 
it. Automatically loading information can be prone to errors. On VHF, 
for example the same station may be worked in different grids. Also, the

Not everybody keeps this data current on QRZ.COM. I would suspect some

[Dx4win] Zone conflicts after importing the log from CQWW

2011-10-31 Thread Mel SM0MPV
Hi,

When importing my log from CQWW i got 23 conflicting zones reports. The are
all concerning stations within zone 4 and 5. Some might be my error but
other not, e.g. K5ZD reported zone 5 but when importing the zone was
changed to 4. Is there a way to check these?
N1MM, the contest logging program I use, did not report any zine error.
However, I do not think check routine is based on callsign and US state.
A little comment out of the topic - it was amazing conditions during this
weekends contest. I hope they remain.

Re: [Dx4win] Ver 8.05 Can't Set Group #

2011-10-18 Thread Mel
Could you not change the Group Number for non-current Groups to a value 
over 253 freeing up some lower numbers to use as default?

   Found the problem.Even tho DX4WIN 8.05 can now do
 64,000 group names, preferences is still set to only

 and save them.
 Help...

Re: [Dx4win] Serial to USB

2011-09-17 Thread Mel
I use the MicroHam Microkeyer which works great and forever solves CW 
timing problems. I have also used the FTDI chipset with Vista though not 
Windows 7. www.hosenose.com sells a USB interface he guarantees to work 
with his logging program... which means it will work with any.

 any Windows 7 problems? Thanks, John W9RPM

Re: [Dx4win] Hints for IC-781 ?

2011-09-15 Thread Mel
Some of the older Icoms won't work with the cheap CT-17 substitutes that 
are not using RS232 levels. If it's a CT-17 or anything using a MAX232 
chip it should work fine. I used 9600 baud, 1 stop bit and a 1000ms 
polling rate with 4 retries for years. Don't try polling too fast, the 
older rigs can't keep up.

How are you interfacing the 781 with your computer?

 A friend of mine just bought dx4win and he has IC-781 with RS-232 connection
 to PC. (PC with genuing RS-232 port)

 N1MM works perfectly with same PC and cable to radio but not DX4WIN.

 Baud rates and address ( 26 ) are OK.  Should the RTS and DTS be OFF or ON
 by default?

 With 300Bd it worked for a few moments but then nothing.

 Any ideas?

Re: [Dx4win] Still have one problem I cant fix.

2011-09-07 Thread Mel
I think the issue I had was a corrupt report file. I just deleted 
dx4win.iep but that was at least one version back.

 remaining problem and it is what is most important about DX4WIN for me.. The
 spots are not being checked against my log book to determine if I need the
 country or it is logged and of little interest.. In other words, it is not
 color coding the spots. I think related to this is a second problem that
 shows when I try to open the country window which should show the matrix of
 bands and countries worked, confirmed etc. That window fails to open and
 gives an error message that says:  A exception occurred: Fixed column count
 must be less than column count.



 I have tried downloading a completely new version of the software and I have
 tried erasing virtually all of the saved files except my log and license and
 that does not cure the problem. I have also tried loading a backed up
 version of my log and that does not help, and I have tried starting a new
 log and that does not help either. This tells me that the log file is not
 corrupted, but that it is some parameter in the program itself that is
 corrupted, but not cured by a new download.



 Do any of you have any ideas on how to get this problem resolved?



 Thanks in advance

I've encountered this error before but can't remember what the solution 
was. You might search the archive for the error message. In the 
meantime, if I remember I'll post.

Re: [Dx4win] grayed out spot

2011-09-04 Thread Mel
It's because you have worked him before. Marking it as invalid doesn't 
change that. Either delete it since the contact didn't happen or change 
it to 9m2ax/NG and put a note for the QSO

On 2011-09-03 13:08, Roger D Johnson wrote:
 In 2010 I worked 9M2AX on 160m and  I asked Ross to bring my QSL to
 Dayton. Upon meeting him, he apologized and said that he only copied
 N1R of my call.

 When I got home, I modified that QSO to have I under the 3 choices
 in the QSO window for DXCC. This removed 9M2 from my worked
 country credits.

 Recently, Ross was spotted on 160 but the spot was grayed out! If
 I completely delete the contact the spot shows up normally.  I've gone
 through every selection I can think of to no avail. Help!
