[Dx4win] South Orkney Island
Just getting set for next week when South Orkney Island will be activated. The call will be VP8ORK. The database shows this as the Falkland Islands. Is there a method to update the DX entity field manually or should I just wait for the next database update? 73 AD6ZJ, Loren __ 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] DX4WIN wish list

In that way we can track how long it is from when a QSL is sent until a reply is received. Sometimes people will ask on the various reflectors if anyone has received a QSL from a DX station. With this additional slot we could track when the QSL was received. There is enough room next to the METHOD slot to add this additional slot. I agree it also. Setting QSL DATE RCVD could be part of the F2 function.

[Dx4win] 160 CW cut off disappears?
I set my 160M CW cut off in my preferences and for some reason it disappears after a few days? Somewhat of a mystery to me? No other band 80 through 6M experiences this only 160M? I do a save after setting. In a few days160M CW cut-off is back to 0? Any suggestions? I am running the latest version of DX4WIN.

Re: [Dx4win] South Orkney Island
Jim, I didn't try that. I will try on the next Dxpedition. It it nice to know I can change the DX in the prefix field. That could come in handy in the future.

[Dx4win] DX4WIN Backup
I just had a bad scare thinking I had lost the last 4 days of my log entries. What I had done was to save my log in an ext HD as I do every few days as a backup using SAVE AS. But then I forgot to switch back to the DX4WIN/SAVE folder. I was out of town for a few days and when I returned I made about 10 QSO's and saved my log when I exited DX4WIN. When I reopened it I had a gap of the missing 10 QSO's. I finally discovered where the missing QSO's were on the ext HD and manually added them to the log and properly saved them. I have an Iomega ext HD with QuickProtect 1.0.2.54. It is set up to save my D4W files whenever any changes are made so anytime I exit D4W the changes are saved. But when I tried to find my backed up DX4WIN file I couldn't find it. All it would allow me to do is do a complete restore of all the files it had backed up. That is FB if I had a complete HD crash and needed to restore ALL my docs, jpgs, etc. But it won't allow me to find just the DX4WIN/K7ACZ.DXL files and copy just those files. So I needed to find another way of automatically backing up the DX4WIN/K7ACZ.DXL files. It seems the Iomega back up program would allow me to do this but I haven't been able to figure it out. I now discovered a feature I was not aware of before. Within DX4WIN itself if you go to FILE: PREFERENCES: QSO WINDOW (3rd tab from top on right edge of window) on the bottom of the page is a box marked SECONDARY BACKUP DIRECTORY. You can use this to do a back up of your DX4WIN/K7ACZ.DXL files whenever you exit or do a SAVE. It is not mentioned on Jim's, AD1C's App note 6 pages or on the DX4WIN main website or in any HELP files I can find. But this works great and could save your butt! I set up a separate folder (DX4WIN_BACKUP) on my ext HD and set up the box marked SECONDARY BACKUP DIRECTORY to this folder. I have confirmed when I do a SAVE my .CTY, .DXL, .~TY, .~XL files are saved in this ext HD folder. I would also like to save the .CFG file but haven't figured how to do it.
