[Dx4win] Upgrading v5 to v9

2018-05-28 Thread Leonard Kay
Hello all, I’m finally upgrading from v5 (all the new modes finally did it…) and I have an issue. I installed 9.03 yesterday and copied over my v5 log file. However, when I open it, all my “SSB” QSOs come up as “TOR”, and the bands are all wrong. Other QSO data seems fine. This does *not* h

[Dx4win] Corrupt state file?

2018-06-22 Thread Leonard Kay
Hi all, After I downloaded the most recent update files, I seem to have a corrupted ‘state’ file. Now, when I do a Reports->WAS->Listing, I have a bogus state entry under Wyoming, and my Summary window says I have 51 states confirmed on some bands. Anyone else see this? I tried renaming c

Thanks Jim and group, that solved it. Found a few contacts with "DC" that must have been populated from LOTW. Cleared those out, restarted, and all is good. 73 Len On 2018-06-22 12:08, Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: On Fri, Jun 22, 2018 at 9:16 AM Dave N4QS wrote: Yes, I had the same problem a fe

[Dx4win] Import of ADIF "Comment" field

2018-06-23 Thread Leonard Kay
When you import an ADIF file (e.g., from WSJT) into D4W, whatever is in the "" field gets imported into the D4W "Callsign notes" field. This seems wrong to me; in the WSJT example, this field contains the signal reports. A better match seems like "QSO Notes". So, is there an ADIF field that

Never mind... I found my own answer. I grabbed the ADIF spec and started playing. Turns out the field will go to QSO Notes. 73 Len On 2018-06-23 07:45, Leonard Kay wrote: When you import an ADIF file (e.g., from WSJT) into D4W, whatever is in the "" field gets imported in

Re: [Dx4win] Importing FT8 to DX4WIN

I also delete the wsjt_log.adi file each time after I import it. Otherwise it will keep appending QSOs, and you will be making D4W process the same QSOs over and over again each time you import. Not a problem I guess if you select 'imported QSO is ignored' but it doesn't seem very efficient.

[Dx4win] Log printing bug

2018-07-24 Thread Leonard Kay
Not sure where bug reports go, so I'll try here... I periodically print out my log as a backup (also it's nice to have for a quick scan sometimes). Today I tried to print for the first time since I upgraded to v9 a couple months ago. I print the Callsign Notes and QSO Notes fields, among ot

Re: [Dx4win] Not getting WPX credit for AC9 and AC0

2018-08-06 Thread Leonard Kay
The second point seems hard to believe. ‘Not currently issued’ is not the same as ‘not authorized by the ITU’. AC9 and AC0 are both valid standard United States prefixes (not special issues). So they shouldn’t go to the deleted pile. And, a quick scan of QRZ shows many current AC9’s & 0’s. I’m

[Dx4win] VUCC Grid award problems

2019-07-09 Thread Leonard Kay
I recently decided to start counting/tracking HF grids. I'm assuming I do this in v9 by going to the awards dialog (QSO_Window->Awards->Reports), going to the "VUCC Grid" tab, and ticking the proper boxes for what bands etc. I want. Let's say 20, 15, and 10 meters. However, nothing I do on t

[Dx4win] QSL sent info

As long as we're on the subject... :^) If anything, I would rather see just the reverse - leave the F2 key alone but add a "QSL Recd" field. I like to keep track of how long it took to get QSLs. Right now I put a note that I can search on like "RECD xxx" in the "QSO Notes" field. Len K1NU --
