[Dx4win] DX4WIN PSK with Windows 11
During the last year I switched from a PC running Windows 10 to a new one running Windows 11. I thought everything was working fine, but recently discovered that the PSK part of DX4WIN was not receiving any signal from my Elecraft K4. Preference settings on DX4WIN look correct (same as under the old Windows 10 machine). The Sound settings in Windows 11 are a bit cryptic. I should mention that MRTTY works just fine.

[Dx4win] Comments in logbook?
Years ago, in the dark ages before we had electronics logs, it was very convenient to write a comment in the logbook. Something like “new dipole” or “new radio”. I would like to suggest a similar function for dx4win. Maybe have the program recognize and entry made with the callsign field starting with the #sign as a comment. No entries for qsl, etc. but just day, time, notes for this qso. Maybe the current frequency and mode. Items would appear chronologically in the log, but nowhere else. Not sure how difficult this would be, but it would be very useful, albeit only used occasionally. 73, Tom W4KX Sent from my iPad __ 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] Fwd: error messages upon Saving Data
Steve: I tried to respond directly to you on your previous message from last week, but never got a response. If you are running Windows 10, it is quite possible that “Controlled Folder Access” has been turned on during an update. You can either turn this feature off in WIN10, or list dx4win.exe as an exception (if you do this you’ll probably need to do the same thing for other programs like TQSL, etc.). Under windows settings go to windows and security, then to windows security and then to virus and threat protection. Go to virus and threat protection and page down to the “Controlled Folder Access” settings.

Re: [Dx4win] Update problems
The same difficulty occurs when using dx4win to check the lotw adif confirmation file. Looks like a good workaround is to add dx4win to the list of applications allowed controlled folder access.

Re: [Dx4win] Update problems
Turns out this is a problem with the fall update of windows 10, which by default enforces “controlled folder access”. Switch this off (in windows defender) and the update goes through seamlessly. I see this with a number of other applications which are denied write access to necessary folders…. Another “feature”!

[Dx4win] Update problems
I updated successfully recently, and just tried to use update again without success. Running dx4win 9.0.4.1176 under windows 10. When I run “check for updates” I now see as error box from dx4win.exe that says “file access denied”. After looking through the log, it looks like dx4win is looking for a file at: C:\users\documernts\dx4w9upd.log Which is a directory which does NOT exist! Should be looking at: C:\users\tom\documents\dx4w9upd.log (Note the inclusion of a user name, in this case “tom”). This file is in the correct directory, but in this case from the previous update. So, it looks like WPdate is trying to write the file to an incorrect directory. Anyone else see the same thing?

[Dx4win] Ts-890s
Borrowed a Kenwood TS-590S while my Elecraft is in the shop. Radio seems to work fine, but can’t communicate with Dx4win. Device manager (windows 10) shows com5. Baud rate set at 9600 for Dx4win and the radio. Using the 870 rig file (per AD1C). Ideas?
