I certainly agree with you Bob. I put rig control right up there with working with new OSs. I apologize if I was not completely up to speed with why there are complaints with DX4WIN. I wasn't aware that Paul is not updating for new rigs. I'm still using a Ten Tec Omni 6! John (N1JP)

DX4WIN works just fine with my Flex-6500 and DDUtil. I click onb a spot and the radio, SteppIR, remote antenna switch go to the spot instantly, it’s a beautiful thing to watch My only issue is RTTY, if DX4WIN would let me force the mode to RTTY (or any other mode) and not change it when

My 2cents, I have been a user of DX4Win for many years, too many to count.  If there is such a outcry for a new version or regular maintenance updates, then I suggest that some of you that want this to happen is to pool your money, buy the source code, start your own software company and

Just to add my two cents, I love this program. It does everything that I want it to do. For my part I hope that it never goes away because I don't need the excitement of learning new software to keep my interest in amateur radio. I've been down the road of asking how this work or how that

I too love DX4WIN..but if you do not have a RIG file that talks to your radio what do you do. I assure you NO RIG file and the enjoyment of working DX and logging in real time is a real turn off. So go out and buy a NON supported new rig and see how much you then enjoy your logging

Hi Max, You have a good point and "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"! Another good program for the APRS folks is UI-View that must be at least 10 years old after the author passed and no more updates. It is one of the most popular programs and works fine - even with Windoze 10. 73, Bill,

Hi John, The tools to develop a new rig file are all part of DX4WIN; I have no additional tools to do that. Over the years, a number of users have created or helped develop new rig files. The important difference is having access to the radio itself. --Paul, KK4HD On Sun, Oct 18, 2015 at 6:45

Hello William, Some months ago Paul collected some ideas from the reflector to include in the update that should show up now or than. I haven't seen substantial requests to modify the software and sincerely, from my user experience standpoint, what I have is still the best I can find around.

HI All, Maybe, if Paul is not in position to update the program, we on this list could buy access to the source code and arrange to move it forward as a not for profit operation. The details could be tricky to work out but it seems feasible if Paul is interested, and if we can make it good

Hi all I have enjoyed DX4Win for MANY years, and I too would be willing to pay for a heavy update. What puzzles me (and many others I think) is Paul's silence on this whole issue. Over 3 years ago, Paul explained some of the reasons for the delay in upgrading : fair enough. BUT he then said it
