[Dx4win] Radio timeouts with Ver8.05 and Win 7/64

2011-10-08 Thread Larry Emery
I am having all sorts of problems with radio timeouts with my DX4Win logging 
program...  I have a K3 and use LP-Bridge to interface with other programs 
I.E. N1MM, MMTTY, and my DX4Win Logger.  I have an I7  machine, 8mb ram and 
running Win 7/64 Pro.   I have installed 4 serial and one parallel port  via 
plug in PCI cards.  After trying numerous port configs, speeds and retry 
numbers, in the DX4Win parameters, I still cannot stop these radio timeouts 
that are occuring randomly for no apparent reason as nothing is happening 
just RXing at the time.  All the close window X  buttons light up red all 
at the same time and the next thing that happens is the radio timeout box 
pops up.   I can find no port or IRQ conflicts.
Does anyone have this operating ok with Win7/64.Im thinking maybe to go 
back to my Win XP/Pro and make life simpler for myself!

Larry, check your power-down settings in control panel, and also in the 
device manager listings for the ports on your PCI cards.

[Dx4win] Radio timeouts with Ver8.05 and Win 7/64

2011-10-08 Thread Larry Emery
Hi Pete,

  I have the computer power management set to Never for everything.  On the
Comm port I have for the radio ( Com 5) the power management had nothing
checked ...I checked the allow this program to wake the computer just to
try thatshould I have done that?

Also  I checked the port parameters to make sure they matched the K3 and
they were fine at 8N1 and 38400.  I cant find a way to set the LP-Bridge
virtual port speed but this has never been a problem with Win XP.

Its almost like port conflicts or data collisions but I cant find where or
why!

Ive turned off all other programs that interface via LP-Bridge and still get
the timeouts...  I wonder if its something to do with the connected P3
Panadapter?

Subject: [Dx4win] Using QRZ data base on line?

Hello all,

I need some help getting the ext data base feature on V8.0.5 to work with
QRZ.com/db/.

I checked the enable box but I don't get anything when I double click on a
spot in the F3 CALL/Mgr lookup window.  

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the help, Dennis, k0eoo

You need to type the ENTER key while the keyboard focus is on the F3
window to do the web-based lookup.

[Dx4win] DX4WIN.CTY country file Release #102 - 9 October 2011

2011-10-08 Thread Jim Reisert AD1C
The DX4WIN country file, DX4WIN.CTY Release #102 is now available from:

http://www.country-files.com/dx4win/

You can read the release notes at:

http://www.country-files.com/dx4win/release.shtml

You can use the DX4WIN Data Updater to update the file:

http://dx4win.ad1c.us/updater/

The Republic of South Sudan still does not have an ITU-assigned prefix. 
As soon as I find out what the official prefix is, I'll release a new 
country file.
