Re: [Dx4win] 'Announce DX' & IOTA Number
Jeffrey, I do not think anything changed for a while making these announcements. There is no option to set the defaults for the selections. --Paul, KK4HD On Sun, Nov 3, 2019 at 10:40 AM Jeffrey Maass wrote: > Recently, when I post a spot using 'Announce DX' for an island, the spot > includes the IOTA number by default.

Re: [Dx4win] Announce DX
I have looked too and not found anything to do what you want. I would like all those options in the announce window to stay unchecked too. Maybe Paul could change it so if you uncheck or check the tick box it remembers your selection and stays that way until the user changes it again. Some other selections in the program work this way so must be able to be done. The other thing that is tripping me up is the 5 spaces in the rst. I understand why this was increased for digital stuff but maybe some smarts could be done so that the extra spaces are only available for modes that require them. Just a thought. 73 John ZL1BYZ. -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Gene K5GS Sent: Sunday, 12 November 2017 10:04 a.m. To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Announce DX Is there a parameter that prevents the sending of IOTA / Island information with a DX Announcement.

Re: [Dx4win] Announce DX
Not sure what you are asking. Your TNC etc. would be nice to know. Idea: "ECHO" is on the TNC so it is sending what you typed and you see if go out (so you see it twice). Used to be an "ECHO OFF" command would remove that. Do not think anything in DX4WIN is wrong. /Dan KI6X -Original Message- From: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Enrique Rabczuk Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2017 1:52 PM To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Announce DX Hello.

[Dx4win] Announce DX Question...another issue
I have observed that if one sends a spot and the spotted station's frequency is below the first KHz of the band bottom, the spot is not displayed on the cluster. If I skew the station's frequency so it reads out at 1.0 KHZ or higher above band bottom, the spot is displayed. At least I have observed this quirk on 40M CW using both an Orion and FTKMP. I haven't checked it on other bands or the top edge of the band. I wonder if anyone else has noticed this? 73, Joe K2XX Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: > At 10:53 AM 2/25/2006, Ed Roberts wrote: > >> Receiving the spots in Dx4win works just fine.

DX4WIN captures the spot you send out and the one it gets back from the cluster, but only keeps the LATEST spot. If your PC clock is fast, or your cluster clock is slow, then it will keep the spot you sent out, not the spot that people see on the cluster. That particular spot will not have the SPOTTER callsign embedded in it, it's of the format: DX AD1C 14000.3 i.e. it has not been reformatted by the cluster. Does this make sense? That's why it's important to keep your PC clock accurate, and the sysop of the node you connect to to keep his PC clock accurate. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us

Jim & Larry--thanks for the responses! I am connected to K2UT---FRC node in Medford NJ usually---It is near to my QTH. I connect using TCP/IP protocol (com port), i.e. the internet. Receiving the spots in Dx4win works just fine. When I see the spot I have just announced, using 'Announce Dx' from Dx4win it always shows up in the remark column appended/following the remark without a spacewith the spotter column left blank.
