[Dx4win] Re Icom 746 Communications

I'll bet it's your RTS and DTS settings.

Under Preferences: Radio - here are my settings

Icom 746
Address 56   Default unchecked
Baudrate 9600   Default unchecked

Notes to radio:  testing S meter

Com Port COM4
Poll rate:  200
Max tries:  6

DTR high:  checked
RTS high:  checked


I haven't a clue what all of the above means but it 
works.

Good luck.

[Dx4win] Complex Log merge question -- help requested.

2005-02-06 Thread K7ZO (Scott Tuthill)
As the QSL manager for the NK7U contest station I maintain a DX4WIN log of
over 130,00 QSO's. I keep a copy of the log and DX4WIN at my QTH and NK7U
does as well at his. Since the last time we sync'd the log file up NK7U and
I have both added QSOs to the log as well as added QSL confirmations for
past QSO's -- and these changes are totally different. So, now we we have
two copies of the log that are different in both QSO's and and QSL
confirmations.

My question is how can I get these two logs sync'd back up into one master
log? We are using 5.03.

Getting the new QSO's sync'd up is easy. Just merge one log into the other
Ignoring Duplicate QSOs. The problem is with the QSL confirmations. If I
copy one log into the other with Duplicate QSO replaces existing one the
QSL confirmations in the log being merged into will be erased since when
the duplicate QSO replaces the existing one it does not have the QSL
Confirmation. Yes, we could merge the new QSO's and go back in and update
the QSL's by hand in the merged log, but we are talking about 500 QSL's that
would need to be re-entered.

Anyone got any ideas?

The notes to Version 6.03 describe the following functionality: Import
(merge) can use imported QSO for confirmation only (we can set confirmed or
upload confirmed. From the description I am not sure if this is solves the
problem, but it looks hopefull. Does anyone have any experience with this
function? If it does I would gladly pay to upgrade to 6.03.

Or, does anyone know the DX4WIN file format? I might be able to write a
separate merge program.

Thanks for your advice and assistance.

K7ZO/Scott



[Dx4win] Upgrade frm 6.xx to 6.04

2005-02-06 Thread Alan Zack
There are several ways to do this using WINDOWS EXPLORER but maybe the 
simplest way is if you are using WINDOWS XP (most PC's sold in the 
past few years are sold with WINDOWS XP as the operating system) is to 
go to START (lower left corner of your screen), then click on SEARCH. 
  Click on ALL FILES AND FOLDERS.  In the first box (FILE NAME) type 
in k6jaj.key.  Don't use just your call, you'll get too many false hits.
Leave the WORD OR PHASE box blank.  Select your C: Drive in the box 
that says LOOK IN:
Click SEARCH and it will find the k6jaj.key file and folder your key 
is kept in.  You can then COPY it and PASTE it into the 6.04 folder. 
If you MOVE it from the 6.03 folder to the 6.04 folder then 6.03 won't 
work anymore.
Hope this helps.  If you are running WINDOWS 98 it is almost the same, 
you can email me direct for more help.
