No problem for me.  Used F9 this weekend.  Must be a custom redirect for
your PC.  Dan KI6X

Subject: [Dx4win] F9 key on new Windows 10 PC

I just got a new Windows 10 laptop. DX4WIN works fine on it, other than one
very annoying problem. I wonder if anyone has the same problem, and/or has
been able to fix it:

Normally, Dx4WIN uses the F9 function key as a shortcut to select "add real
time" on the input window. But with my new PC, I always get a search window
when I hit F9. I can select add real time by using my mouse, but I would
really like to be able to use the F9 key.

If anyone has had the same problem and has found a work-around, I'd like to
know about it.

Thanks, Rick K0XB

[Dx4win] Long Calls

2015-11-30 Thread Jim
After the CQWW contest this weekend, the DX4WIN import of  the bizarre call
of OM2015TITANIC was problematic. It posted to DX4WIN as OM2015TITANI. I'm
not sure if DX4WIN has field length limitation of 12 characters or if
something got lost in the translation. I exported my Writelog file in ADIF
format, used AD1C's conversion utility and then imported the .DXQ into
DX4WIN. The Writelog ADIF file shows a field length of 13 for the call of
OM2015TITANIC. The DXQ file also shows 13 characters but all subsequent data
is shifted one byte to the right. When the  DXQ was imported the call was
truncated to 12 bytes  and other fields had erroneous data due to the shift.


 

I am assuming the CALL is a  fixed field in the database which would require
some work to correct. But perhaps not. In any event, in the likely event
more of these extended calls show up, is there a suggestion on how to handle
the?

 

Thanks
