Hello Jim,
Thank you. K2CAN and AB5E both work; couldn't find W0MU. Now here is what I
did after my previous post.
I feared that my original configuration file became corrupted. So I removed
C:\dx4w903 and downloaded a fresh install.
Then I dropped my license into the dx4w folder, my log files into the Save
folder, and manually reconstructed the configuration file from scratch.
Then I saved and then loaded the new configuration file and launched the
program, opened and arranged the windows, then opened the band map. Success!
With this I followed your directions and am online with AB5E.
I still don't know why I can connect to K5TX using N1MM and not DX4W. But all
works as it should, posts appear in the band map and my radio follows when a
post is clicked. I am not about to quarrel with success nor question how or
why.
Thanks so much for your reply and help.
73,
Al Walters - K5NOF

Don't select Local Host.
The list has many bad entries (nodes that no longer exist).
Try W0MU, K2CAN and/or AB5E. I know they work, I am connected to them now.
