Re: [Dx4win] grayed spot

You can set a time when the "mailed" no longer counts in days in the 
Preference/QSO.  Else, like Kostas says you have worked them on that band so 
they are grey as designed so you do not try to work again so soon.  Dan KI6X

This is normal. It has no sense to work the same station again and waiting for 
a qsl another time. Or you should sent a qsl for the old qso, or you have sent 
and never replied or you are not in log so you should delete the qso. I make 
the following trick in cases like this. I mark the old qso as od5zz/mm. Not the 
best way but maybe a solution...

Re: [Dx4win] no psk31

2012-09-18 Thread N4QS
Peter,

I have no problem running psk31 with my desktop's internal sound card.  Here 
is how I set mine up:

1.  On the K3, hold Data Md and then turn VFO B to select DATA A.

2.  In DX4WIN, click on File, Preferences, Control, click on the two drop 
down boxes in the middle of the page to select the sound card for both Input 
and Output.  If you only have one sound card, selecting Default for both 
should work.  Or you can select the actual sound card if desired.  Be sure 
to click on File and Save Changes and Exit to save your selections.

3.  Open the psk31 window in DX4WIN.  Either click on the Window tab and 
then select PSK31 or just select Alt 3.  This will bring up the psk31 
window.  If do not see the spectrum and waterfall displays, just click on 
the bottom of the send text box (just above the message tabs) and drag the 
bottom up to make the send text box smaller.  The spectrum and waterfall 
displays should now be visable.  You can use the button below the spectrum 
display to display both, spectrum only or waterfall only.  Just toggle that 
button to change options.

If you are tuned to a psk freq like 14.070 you should now see multiple 
signals being displayed.  If you see signals, then you know that your sound 
card is now receiving audio from the K3.  If you do not see signals, make 
sure that you have the volume controls for your desktop sound card turned on 
and that you have not muted the microphone or line in channels.

The psk utility built into DX4WIN works fine, but is a bit elementary.  I 
actually prefer to use DigiPan outside of DX4WIN for making psk31 contacts. 
All should work fine with your internal sound card.  Be sure to switch the 
K3 back to AFSK A if you want to make RTTY contacts.

Let me know if you have any other problems.

73,

Dave, N4QS

Hi Peter,

DX4WIN needs exclusive access to the sound card.  You have to have a
second sound card to operate PSK31, or un-assign the sound card from
Windows (don't ask me how).

I think if you right-click somewhere on the PSK window, you can choose
the sound card.

[Dx4win] no psk31

2012-09-18 Thread Peter Solly
using latest version of dx4win, a K3 and a desktop running windows XP 
with service packs 2, 3.
tried to get psk31 running and error message popped up saying  " 
Device(sound card?)  already allocated".
Is this a dx4win set-up problem, or a windows set-up problem?
thanks for all help de ve3ad

[Dx4win] grayed spot

2012-09-18 Thread Roger D Johnson
OD5ZZ was spotted today on 21260 but was grayed out. I have worked Walid
on SSB before but not confirmed as shown by the W in my country window.
Spot should be red. I've checked all my settings but am stumped! Any 
suggestions?
