[Dx4win] Ve7cc and P5??

2011-12-11 Thread Hugh Valentine
When configuring VE7CC to allow spots to DX4WIN, I notice in the AS country list, there is no P5(VE7CC). Since P5 is so needed, why is it not there. Just curious. Or, is this a VE7CC question? Val N4RJ Get Free Email with Video

If possible, could those having the Key lock down on Ver 8.03 measure the voltages on either side of the keying Transistor, both Key up and during lock down? Please report this if you can. I am going to change resistance values associated with the resistor to see if this changes things.

I only work a handful of Modes. When I go to Log a new QSO, All of the modes are listed. Is there a way to just list the 3-4 modes I work? And, the proper box auto-selects? For example, If I hist the S key it defaults to SSB, but if I hit the C key for CW it goes to Clover or someting?
