Re: [Dx4win] FW: Printing Labels showing frequency
Alan, I don't think you can. The exact frequency ends up in the notes field if you added the "$$" (so probably cannot be put on a label). There is the setting in the QSO preference for MHZ instead of Band, but without trying, I think it will just put 14 MHz instead of 20m and not the exact frequency if it even does that on a label.

Anyone have any suggestions please? Subject: [Dx4win] Printing Labels showing frequency I've been poking around various HELP topics but can't find an answer to this. I presently have my labels set up with small windows showing the following QSO info: DATE UTC BAND RST 2X When I print the labels this info is filled in. Example: DATE UTC BAND RST 2X 15-SEP-2013 2156 14 MHZ 599 CW Rather than just showing the band (14 MHZ) is there a way to show the exact freq logged (14012.0)? My contest loggers always show the exact freq I worked a station (ex: 14012.0) rather than just 14.000 or 14 MHZ. When I transfer my contest logs (via ADIF) into DX4WIN the exact freq appears in my FREQ (KHZ) little box in the main logging window after the download. I am now in the habit when I log a regular every day QSO I fill in the exact freq in this same window. But when I print the labels it will just print 14 MHZ.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win wish list (In addition to xmmt.ocx)
My suggestion of how I like to log receive, transceive and transmit frequencies has evolved over time, primarily in the age before computer logging, when I wrote QSL cards out by hand and used frequency rather than band. Again, you are logging improperly. It may not matter to you as an Amateur Extra class operator but to an Advanced/General it does. The log, to the extent to which one chooses to maintain one today, is the *legal record* of the station's transmissions. If a DX Station transmitting at 14.024 and listening up works a General transmitting at 14.026 and the General logs the frequency (which is defined in the ADIF standard as "my transmitting frequency") he is logging an *illegal transmission*. Now, you may wish that DX4Win would print *your receive frequency* on a QSL card - that's a completely different matter - but to LOG the receive frequency as you do is completely contrary to every norm (just like someone who wires the dit contact on their paddles to the ring instead of the tip) for more than 80 years. I have some logs from my wife's grandfather in which the transmit frequency was logged - not the receive frequency. 73, ...

The DX station needs to see his transmit frequency on my QSL, not mine, which he doesn't log anyway. By doing receive/transceive frequency in one column and my transmit frequency in a separate column, I could always use the first frequency column in filling out the card, regardless of whether the QSO was simplex or split. I still prefer that arrangement for browsing my logs -- I want to see the DX's frequency first. I very well know the definition of QSX, but it doesn't really have anything to do with how I like to log QSO info. And it must be noted that my transmit frequency is ALWAYS logged by this method.

[Dx4win] RES: DX4WIN - time is money
Hi folks The DX4WIN is really a fantastic tool for all users. As any other SW must be upgraded from time to time. I'm noticing that DX4win enter in certain conflict with computer connection with OM 2500 A for instance. When you use this automatic control amplifier in connection with DX4win and K3 or Icom 7800 the program gets lazy. Maybe a deeper study on the radio rig files would be useful. 73 Oms PY5EG -Mensagem original- De: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] Em nome de PY2YP Enviada em: sábado, 12 de outubro de 2013 07:46 Para: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Assunto: Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN - time is money That is fair.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win wish list (In addition to xmmt.ocx)
I am on the air since 1991. I am using dx4win since december 1997 (release 1.07 if i remember well). I think that this software is just perfect. My wish list is limited to an improvement of CAT. I know that is a very hard job but in my opinion is the only part that can be discussed. I saw easy log. It gives a number of radio and a small customizable panel with the preferred controls for each one. I really don't need an HRD cat system but something more than what it is given today. That's all. 73 de Tibor IK2SAI Tibor M.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4Win wish list (In addition to xmmt.ocx)
Maybe I am silly because I reply to the same question a number of years without response... Anyway... I like to add to K0CF list, omnirig support. This adds flexibility and solves a number of problems as 1. support for new radios (dx4win is also back on this), 2. co-operation with pst rotator (multiple rotors)... and maybe others... 73 Kostas SV1DPI __ 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
