[Dx4win] Databases
I have had 9.03 for one week now and I have been exploring the different menus to look for changes between 8.05 and 9.03. I found when I go to File\Databases\countries as well IOTA and Qsl Manager, I get a message that these editors are not available. Are these databases no longer available to the end user as in 8.05?

[Dx4win] Dx4win] Update DX4Win from LOTW
Food for thought. I spoke to a friend of mine at the ARRL about logging programs that upload to LoTW after every contact. He told me that he wished that they wouldn't do that. He said that it over worked the servers at the ARRL and kept them very busy. He said that he would prefer people to save up several contacts and then upload them all at once. Just an observation from the other side. 73 Bruce WD4LBR --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Dx4win] Recvd Box
I was looking through my log after I moved it into 9.03 from 8.05. I noticed that many of my contacts had a value in the box marked "Recvd" just to the right of the boxes marked "rstS and rstR". Is there any way to clear that box in the whole log without having to deleting them one at a time? Since that field was not even version 8.05, I don't know why anything should have been put into that box when I moved the log over to 9.03.

In 8.05 under Report/submission there was only one choice. Now one has to choose either card or LoTW. I have done both but when I go to reports/summery It still shows that I have some contacts confirmed and my submit totals don't show the same number as my "tot conf" number. It is short the number of contacts in the "confirmed" column. What do I need to do to get all the confirmed contacts to appear in the submit column? I must be missing something.

[Dx4win] cty list
If you press enter after typing "version" in the log window, you will log that as a contact and will later have to go back and delete it. If you go to preferences/qso and check Callsign update, the desired results will show up in the country box and in the qsl mgr box without pressing the enter key. This way you won't have to go in and delete the contact you just logged. Another plus of checking this box is that as soon as the first few of letters of the call of someone you want to work is entered, the country will pop up. You won't have to type in the whole call to see what country it is from. Handy if you just want to know the origin of a call.

[Dx4win] Log import
I have been trying to get a friend of mine to switch from his logging program, Log4OM, to Dx4Win. He sent me an ADIF file of his log and I imported it into Dx4Win to demonstrate to him how powerful Dx4Win was. Unfortunately when I imported his log into Dx4Win many many of his contacts showed up as 60M CW for the mode in Dx4Win that were not on 60M in his logging program. I opened the ADIF file and searched for the call sign of one of the 60M CW contacts and in the ADIF file it was not 60M. There were a very few 60M contacts in his log but Dx4Win showed hundreds and hundreds. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN Digest, Vol 189, Issue 14
I have tried many of these free programs. They all are loaded with so much junk that is not needed that it takes forever just to figure out how to just log a simple contact. Dx4Win is very simple to use and does a great job of tracking awards. There are also many, many ways to query your log if you want to extract information you need. I have been using Dx4Win for 17 years and I have never found a logging program that comes close to Dx4Win. Hopefully Paul will outlive me. Hi Hi.

[Dx4win] Worked all states?
I have been trying to work all states on 10m. I have managed to confirm 49 out of the 50 states. I still haven't been able to confirm North Dakota. I have worked North Dakota four times but I can't get it confirmed. When I ask Dx4Win to list the states I have confirmed it lists all 50 states including North Dakota. When I ask for a summary on 10 meters it says I have 50 states I don't have 50 states confirmed because I still haven't confirmed North Dakota. I have checked all of my 10 meter contacts with North Dakota and none of them have a "Y" in any of the boxes for confirmation. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this problem?

[Dx4win] Worked all states?
Thank you everyone for all the suggestions. I have tried all of them. As it turns out, one of the stations I worked was in MN not ND. I changed ND to MN and all is ok now. I still don't know why it said North Dakota was confirmed when nothing was marked with a "Y". Not card, not LoTW or eqsl. I guess it's just one of life's little mysteries. I still wouldn't trade Dx4Win for all the logging programs out there. Even if they paid me. 73 and Tnx Bruce WD4LBR __ 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

[Dx4win] Development
I have been using Dx4Win for about 15 years. With the help of Dx4Win I have been able to track my contacts and have achieve the Honor Roll. It does everything I need and more. It is very easy to use and is very intuitive not like many of the other logging programs out there. Dx4Win is a bargain for what it does. I wouldn't change logging programs if someone paid me.

[Dx4win] FAILURE OF MY PROGRAM
I don't know if anyone would like this idea or not. I wrote a DOS batch file that executes whenever I boot up my computer. It copies my current log file to a thumb drive plugged into the back of my computer. That way I don't lose anything up to that point. If later I make contacts and want to save them as well, I have a shortcut on my desktop to activate the batch file and it will save the log file at that point whenever I click on it. Any time I open Dx4Win, it always opens the file in my save folder not the one on the thumb drive. The only time I have to be careful is if I open the file on the thumb drive to look at it, I have to go to the save folder and open my log from there to make sure it doesn't open the one on the thumb drive. Just a suggestion. It has worked for me for several years with no problems. 73 and good luck Bruce Blackley WD4LBR -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com __ 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

Subject: Re: [Dx4win] any upgrades? Hi John,you hit the nail on the head. I am 78 years old and I have been using Dx4Win ever since version 6.XX. The last thing I need is a big learning curve with a program that may not be as good as Dx4Win when I finally figure it out. With a little work you will find out that Dx4Win will do more things than you can imagine. I wouldn't give up Dx4Win if someone paid me. When ever a new ham joins our radio club I suggest Dx4Win for their logging. They are all happy because is is very easy to get started using it.

I believe most DX4Win users who also operate FT8 would like full integration. Most likely that would require adding UDP communication and Paul says that is not likely to happen, at least not anytime soon. Fortunately, it is not difficult to add FT8 QSOs to DX4Win. I create a shortcut to the WSJT-X (or JTDX) .adi file. I import that file and it imports very quickly. Not ideal, but very easy. If you need a logging program with real time uploads to Club Log, LOTW, full integration with other software and other fun things, DX Labs software may be your choice. But the learning curve is steep and the number of settings and options is significant. DX4Win is very straight forward and so easy to use.

I have been using DX4WIN for many years and now have 160K+ q's in the log. There are several minor changes I would like to see but integration of WSJT-X is one that I would like to see. So while I have been looking at all the windows logging programs now available I don't really want to move away from DX4WIN if something is in the pipeline.
